You are listening to a Clarks World magazine podcast, and I'm your host and narrator,

Kate Baker.

Welcome to our fifth story for the month of May 2023 issue 200.

Thank you for being with us for these 200 issues.

I hope that you're with us for 200 more.

We could not do this with your ongoing support.

So please, please, if you can, visit patreon.com for a slash Clarks world.

Our story is titled Sensation and Sensibility, and is by Parker Ragland now, Parker Ragland.

It's a writer who spends most days trying to convince people that artificial intelligence

isn't that scary, contrary to what his fiction might suggest.

He tends to write about robots having existential crises, but also jolt's down stories about

humans having existential crises.

Right now, he is interested in the sigh of life stories in which authors speculate about

intimate ways of technologies might affect people's lives.

For the past few years, he has worked as a technical writer, drafting and editing software

documentation for artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and media streaming technologies.

Before that, he earned a law degree, focusing his studies on the intersection of technology,

law, and policy, and he served as executive editor of the Colorado Technology Law Journal.

His fiction has appeared in Clarks World and the Dread Machine.

He lives in Denver.

If you like which here, you can go back to the Carrie Android Zoe and a small flame.

So, my dear listener, I hope you can sit back, relax, and let me tell you a story.
