🤖 About the Book

Harold panics about his future when he realises artificial intelligence can do everything perfectly, ultimately learning that human struggle is where meaning is created.

Harold Mitchell is fourteen years old and having an existential crisis. If AI can write better essays, draw better pictures, and code better games than he can, what is the point of trying? He completely stops applying himself, leading to a hilariously grim "robot uprising" in his own bedroom.

This is the story of what happens when technology makes you feel obsolete, and the profound, funny reality of learning why trying hard actually matters.
