Due to a gaffe in reading from a text-to-speech program, I think if I ever do decide to get into rapping, I'll go by the moniker of MC Luhan.

A labor focus in journalism education, we argue, can inoculate students to better face uncertain futures.

Much of my career to date is summed up in this book. But we've also worked hard to make sure that the latest and greatest in AI and Games (as of the beginning of this year) is represented. That's why the book is 200 pages longer than the first edition. I think it's fair to say
After a year-long writing journey, we are excited to announce that the second edition of our Artificial Intelligence and Games textbook, co-authored with @togelius, is finally available for pre-order through @SpringerNature! Publication date is expected in April 2025.
