Women in Big Data LA Book Club

Our next **Women in Big Data SoCal Book Club** is here! Join us for an afternoon of good conversation, coffee, and a thought-provoking discussion about how AI is changing the way we live and work. **This Quarter's Book** ***[I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything](https://joannastern.com/)*** by **Joanna Stern** What happens when a technology journalist decides to let AI take over almost every aspect of her life? In *I Am Not a Robot*, Joanna Stern documents her year-long experiment using AI to tackle everything from work and productivity to everyday tasks and personal decisions. The book explores what happens when we move beyond simply *using* AI tools and start relying on them to do things we would normally do ourselves. Expect plenty of humor, curiosity, and questions about what AI can—and perhaps shouldn't—do for us. **About the Author** Joanna Stern is an award-winning technology journalist and video creator best known for her work covering consumer technology, AI, and the ways technology impacts everyday life. She was a senior personal technology columnist at The Wall Street Journal, where she has covered everything from smartphones and computers to emerging technologies and now has started her own tech media company, New Things. **What to Expect** This is a casual, welcoming discussion—not a formal book review! **📣 Haven't read the book yet? You're still invited!** **You** **do not need to finish—or even read—the book to join us.** If you didn't get a chance to read it, you're still welcome to come, listen to the discussion, share your thoughts and perspectives, and be part of the conversation. We'd love to have you there! **Event Details** Date: Sunday, November 15, 2026 Time: 2:00 PM Location: Sorry Not Sorry - 11520 W Pico Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90064 We’ll be reserving a space in the front patio, and as always, each guest will be responsible for their own tab. ☕ Grab an afternoon drink, bring your thoughts (and your questions!), and join us for our quarterly book club. We hope to see you there! 📚🤖 \-\-\-\-\-\- Follow us on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14309306/) to get the latest updates on our events. \-\-\-\-\-\- **Photo Release Notice:** By attending this event, you consent to photographs being taken and used in Women In Big Data's promotional materials.
