  <title><![CDATA[Science Fiction Day 2024 — AI in Sci-Fi]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Contrary to popular belief, the holidays don't end with New Year's Day. In fact, in addition to being National Cream Puff Day, World Introvert Day, and National Buffet Day (and some other stuff), Jan. 2 is also Science Fiction Day. And every Science Fiction Day, the faculty and students of the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts offer recommendations for some (often off-the-beaten-path) things to read, watch, or play to celebrate.</p>

<p>This year, we're looking at AI in science fiction. You won't find <em>2001: A Space Odyssey</em>, <em>Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep</em>, or <em>The Moon is a Harsh Mistress&nbsp;</em>on this list. Instead, you'll find less well-known but no less fascinating fare, from some early examples of AI in science fiction literature to a current-day streaming series.</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never

         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
