If there's any overlap at all between my followers and the kind of science fiction fan who will be attending Worldcon in Seattle (@seattlein2025Seattle Worldcon 2025) or just follows what's going on in that scene, then I beg you, please go easy on the Worldcon organizers. There's apparently some controversy around them deciding to use ChatGPT to vet possible panelists. Their statement on that is here: https://seattlein2025.org/2025/04/30/statement-from-worldcon-chair-2/ I'm not into SF conventions, but one of my favorite SF authors posted about this. 1/?

Statement From Worldcon Chair

We have received questions regarding Seattle’s use of AI tools in our vetting process for program participants. In the interest of transparency, we will explain the process of how we are using a Large Language Model (LLM).
