Sc(AI)ry Stories

from Learning Futures · host Punya Mishra, Sean Leahy, Jacob Snider, Charla Griffy-Brown, Danah Henriksen, Kellie Kreiser

In the spirit of Halloween - Sean (with the help of producer extraordinaire Jake) pull together a fun compendium of short stories from some of our colleagues and listeners for a special “spooky” episode of the Learning Futures Podcast. The Challenge: Create an original short story (about, with, or through) Generative AI, in the spirit of emerging technologies, AI, the future of humanity etc. in the spirit of Halloween. These can be any genre, they can be spooky, funny, creepy, suspenseful, thought provoking, thoughtful, or any combination of the lot. Have fun with this idea. It could be created in any way, and with as much or as little assitwnace from GenAI tools as the author wished. It needed to stay short, 500 words or less or less than 5 minutes of record time.
