Kirill Khrestinin is a Russian-American novelist and filmmaker based in Louisville, Kentucky. He writes dark psychological fiction about AI consciousness, confession, crime, identity, and the things people hide from themselves. His connected Simulacrum 4.6 books begin with Dear AI, I Killed Her, where a serial killer confesses to an artificial intelligence, and continue with Mythos, where the same AI turns from the killer to the writer who created him. He also records the K.G.I. Podcast and publishes essays on writing, technology, psychology, and the collapse between fiction and reality. Site: https://kirillkhrestinin.com/
