“I told you not to read books like this.”   — Your Mom

When AI and the culture wars collide, hilarity ensues.

The 2040 presidential election is in full swing, with an AI facing off against a Native American chief hellbent on abolishing the United States. Ethan is the CEO of KumbAI, the flailing startup that built PresiBot—the AI candidate—as a desperate publicity ploy. With PresiBot buggy and hallucination-prone, it looks like curtains for America unless Ethan and friends can pull off a miracle. But miracles do happen . . . and that’s when the real trouble begins.

1. Optimize America!

5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1 – Action!

      “Welcome to the first debate of the historic 2040 presidential election. I’m Emilia Hernández of Wolf News, and we’re live from Puerto Rico State University. On my left is Democratic candidate Chief John Raging Bull of the Lakota, the first Native American nominee of a major party. And on my right is Republican candidate PresiBot, the first AI nominee of a major party. We will begin with brief opening statements. Chief Bull, you’re up first.”
