About “The Book”

Kate Abbott had been a huge proponent of the Human Arts Protection Act, a law that requires any works of art – including artwork, books, music and the film industry – to be human made. Kate attended numerous assemblies and signed endless petitions in an effort to curb the rise of AI and protect human ingenuity. She would never support AI writing…

Or never thought she would. When Kate experiences a several year stretch of writer’s block, her bills begin to pile up. Facing eviction and embarrassment, she jumps on an ad that offers to take the ideas from her brain and put them on paper – for free.

Against her better judgment, Kate not only agrees, but ultimately publishes the unexpectedly brilliant novel. After all, it came from her own head, right? She rises to the height of fantasy fame, only for the truth to come out right at the pinnacle of her success.

Kate’s world is left whirling as she tries to piece together her life and explain her actions. Even as her book is being banned, it becomes the most sought after work in the world. The entire globe becomes absorbed in the debate of whether or not the book is considered a work of AI.

Kate is embroiled in an intense legal battle, fighting her friends and family over something she is not even sure she believes in. The world watches on as the courts attempt to solve an impossible question. What is AI?
