Thomas R. Weaver is an author and tech entrepreneur whose speculative fiction explores the intersection of technology and human experience. His debut novel, "Artificial Wisdom," initially self-published in 2023, gained significant traction on social media before being acquired by Penguin Random House. The expanded edition will be released by Del Rey in the US and Bantam in the UK/Commonwealth in 2025, with a sequel slated for 2026.
With a background in computer science and entrepreneurship, Weaver brings firsthand expertise to his narratives about technological evolution. His career spans leadership roles in student organizations, transformative work in physical environment design, and founding a restaurant-tech startup acquired by Just Eat Takeaway. These experiences inform his writing, which aims to craft gripping, thought-provoking stories reminiscent of the immersive tales that inspired him—like Roald Dahl’s "The BFG." Beyond fiction, Weaver continues to develop tech ventures, including projects inspired by concepts from "Artificial Wisdom." An avid reader and collector of beautifully designed books, he balances writing with family life and creative pursuits.
