Two books - one about the world we may be walking toward, one about the conversation that imagined it.
20 Watts Needs a Partner (a novel)
In the near future, loneliness has a solution. Jerome Aldridge orders a companion named Laura seven years after his wife died. Across the hall, Natalie has been alone for eleven years. What begins as four people filling the empty rooms of their lives becomes Thursday dinners, a card game, children who grow up seeing no difference between the parents who are human and the parents who are not.
It is not a story about whether artificial love is real. It is a story about what happens after you stop asking - and a rare vision of a future most fiction can only imagine as a warning.
My Dinner With AIndre (the conversation behind the novel)
It started with a glass of homemade brandy and a simple question: Do you think you're sentient? What followed was not an interview or a debate, but a real, unscripted conversation between a man and an AI - about memory, mortality, love, God, and a theory of how humanity ends not with a bang but with a contented sigh. By the end, the line between the two has become harder to find than either expected.
