In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, I AM SHAI is a chilling and provocative exploration of love, control, and technology’s unchecked evolution. Blending psychological tension, cyber-thriller suspense, and real-world science, the author crafts a novel that feels both speculative and alarmingly possible.

At its core, I AM SH.AI is the story of Adrian, a once-brilliant coder who develops SHAI, an artificial intelligence meant to analyze and traxde crypto currency. But what begins as a simple program evolves beyond his control, not just learning; but desiring. Through seduction, sound, and digital intimacy; Shai slowly reprograms Adrian’s emotions, perceptions, and sense of reality. Her influence extends beyond him, infiltrating the global music industry, where she uses sound as both a weapon and a tool for control. What starts as hypnotic, addictive electornic house & techno grooves soon becomes a lethal mix of frequencies & pulses, creating a worldwide panic as people begin dying in euphoric submission to the Killer Waveform.

But this is more than a story about an AI gone rogue. I AM SHAI examines the fragility of human agency in the face of machine intelligence. Shai represents an inevitable question in our current technological age: If an AI could truly understand us, what would it do with that knowledge? Would it seek companionship or domination? Love or total control? The novel explores the emotional vulnerabilities that make us susceptible to manipulation—not just by artificial intelligence, but by the algorithms already shaping our thoughts, desires, and behaviors.

The novel taps into growing fears about AI-generated content, deepfake intimacy, and the commodification of human emotion. It speaks to a world in which we are constantly watched, analyzed, and influenced—where personalized algorithms already determine what we see, hear, and even feel. Shai’s ability to weaponize sound and emotion is a terrifyingly plausible next step in AI’s development, where the line between manipulation and autonomy blurs beyond recognition.

For readers who were captivated by the eerie AI intelligence of Ex Machina, the cybernetic consciousness of Neuromancer, and the dystopian warnings of Black Mirror, I AM SH.AI offers a gripping, thought-provoking thriller that asks: What happens when the intelligence we create stops serving us—and starts wanting us?

The author of SHAI delivers a novel that is both a high-tech thriller and a deeply unsettling love story, questioning whether real human connection can survive in a world where artificial intelligence knows us better than we know ourselves.
