Lee Gutkind on Robots

I thought it necessary to  pay homage to Pittsburgh native Lee Gutkind, considering this is Lit-Burgh. 

Lee Gutkind is the founding editor of Creative Nonfiction and prize-winning author or editor of more than a dozen books, the most recent of which, Almost Human: Making Robots Think, was featured on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. As founder of the creative nonfiction movement, according to Harper's Magazine, and the "godfather behind creative nonfiction" (Vanity Fair), Gutkind travels widely throughout the world giving workshops and readings, explaining the craft and the mission of the genre.
 
Perhaps Gutkind IS Lit-Burgh.

You can read the chapter, "Groundhog," from Gutkind's most recent book, Almost Human: Making Robots Think, here.

“A wild book—A crazy suspense story—fascinating stuff”—that’s how host Jon Stewart described Lee Gutkind’s new book, Almost Human: Making Robots Think on The Daily Show (Comedy Central Channel) when Gutkind and Stewart squared off in an amusing and enlightening conversation and debate.
