How Star Wars Prepared Us for AI

What the Machine Heard

A novel

Maya Rivera is a teenage coder at Brooklyn Innovation Academy the year the school installs an AI monitoring system. When it flags her younger brother as a threat — for trash talk he said in Spanish, taken literally — she has to decide what she's willing to do about a machine that misheard him.

A story about surveillance, translation, and the people who get misread by systems built without them in mind. Written for readers 12 and up, with optional classroom material at the end of each chapter.
