ABOUT THE BOOK

This book is about a teenage girl who goes on a hunt to find a robot among her society, only in the end to find out that it is she who is the robot. Her society’s technology is only getting stronger and stronger, which in her case is dangerous. After multiple lucid dreams, exploration through the mysterious building, finding new friendships, and creating enemies, Maiia learns to accept herself for who she is and learns that not everyone is who they seem.

This fictional book centers its focus around the development of technology and artificial intelligence, allowing readers to expand their imagination. In the current era, technology is huge, and it is constantly evolving. In our society, artificial intelligence is already making vast improvements to our world. However, it also raises the question of “what’s next?” This book addresses the possibilities of ai, highlighting how unforeseeable it can be.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I am 14 years old and will be in high school when the book is published. My hobbies include writing, traveling, and living life to its fullest. I appreciate all the support from my family, friends, and coaches, as it is my first time writing a novel. What intrigued me to write this book was that our world could be more complicated if AI were to become stronger, and the possibility of AI dominating human intelligence within the next decade.
