What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

He’s three inches tall. He has enormous plans. And he’s about to learn a very important lesson.How to Train Your Evil Robot is the wildly funny picture book that helps kids make sense of the AI world they’re already living in – without any of the anxiety, and with all of the laughs. One kid, one skeptical dog, and one very overconfident robot walk readers through what AI can do, what it can’t, and why being human is still pretty great.Perfect for curious kids, savvy parents, and anyone who wants to stay one step ahead of the robots.The funniest AI book your kid will ever read – a tiny robot with massive ambitions meets his match in one clever kid and their very unimpressed dogFinally – a way to talk to your kids about AI that’s actually fun, age-appropriate, and doesn’t require a computer science degreeSmart, funny, and wildly timely – covers what AI can do (and what it definitely cannot) in a way that sticks with kids ages 4-8Comics-style art and laugh-out-loud storytelling make every page an adventure – even the big ideas feel like playThe must-have gift for the AI age – because every kid is growing up with technology, and this book makes that hilarious instead of scary
