Description
In the vein of Girls with Bright Futures, a mother-daughter story with apocalyptic stakes.
"AI Baby explores how far parents will go for their children in a world where intelligence can be engineered -- and love may be the last thing that can't be programmed. A must-read." -- Dana Frank, Best-Selling Author of Get Up And Get On It
Tiger mom Erica Barbieri has sacrificed everything, including her marriage, to get her daughter Zoey to the top of her class. Zoey thinks her mom is lovingly psychotic but knows her methods equal survival in The Hunger Games of college admissions. Senior year begins with Zoey poised to be valedictorian and Harvard acceptance a "likely." Neither sees the threat coming.
Fenella Kingsley, a genius with supermodel looks, rolls into their elite Seattle prep school and dethrones Zoey. Erica insists she's too perfect and suspects Fenella's mother, billionaire Lannie Kingsley who runs the AI company Prometheus, has engineered her intelligence. Erica lands a job at Prometheus to investigate while Zoey befriends Fenella, falling under Lannie's influence. Erica breaks into the Kingsley mansion to find Zoey and makes a mind-bending discovery. Confronted by her own failures, she must fight for Zoey and the essence of what it means to be human. But her success may depend on the one person she fears the most.
"AI Baby has compelling, complex characters and a strong story that could be less fictional than many think... I couldn't wait to see how it turned out... Brava!" -Karen Smiley, Founder, She Writes AI
"Smart, humorous and a somewhat terrifying look at life, where we are now and what might soon be our reality. I loved every minute of it." -- Stacey R. Campbell, Author of the Highly Rated Lakeview Series
