Deus, Machina
I’m currently writing a novel about an engineer trying to find her place in a world increasingly shaped, and quietly governed, by artificial intelligence.
The story sits at the intersection of business, AI, and ethics. What does it mean to build a career as AI starts to pervade organizations life? What happens when the people shaping your future aren’t people at all?
After losing her job in a corporate merger, Janie lands a quiet position at a secretive engineering firm. The work is demanding, the expectations precise, and the culture is… unusual. Her boss seems almost too good, like she wrote the management textbook. And maybe she did.
This is a story about ambition in an automated age, the tension between human intuition and algorithmic authority, and the unease of realizing that the person you report to may not be a person at all.
