Journalist Bradley Hope talks narrative writing and the future of AI

In a new Q&A with the Sunday Long Read, journalist Bradley Hope chats about his recent story for WIRED: a deep dive into the deadly sinking of the superyacht Bayesian, which sank off the coast of Italy during a storm last year, killing seven people—including the vessel’s billionaire owner, Michael Lynch.

The yacht’s tragic, and initially unexplained, sinking immediately became fodder for conspiracy theorists. This year, Hope painstakingly unraveled the full story for WIRED.

In a wide-ranging interview with SLR, Hope gives behind-the-scenes details about the reporting of that story, and also weighs in on the value of writing across different mediums, the pros and cons of AI, and his hope for the future of narrative writing.

Hope is a journalist, a bestselling author and a Pulitzer Prize finalist. He is also the co-founder of the production company Brazen.

This episode was hosted by Amanda Ulrich and produced by Matthew Whitehurst. The Sunday Long Read Podcast is executive produced by Étienne Lajoie.
