Dream Engine

Dream EngineBook Two in the Impossible Club SeriesThe headlines say AI is the end of everything: jobs, privacy, maybe the human race. Andrew Young and Reynolds Colton aren't afraid of it. They're teenagers with a better idea. Their question is simple. What if the biggest thing a machine could do was help a kid on the other side of the world find the one person who can say "e;yes, you can do this"e;?After the wild ride of the Impossible Club's first adventure, the boys turn their attention to something that sounds impossible. They build Dream Engine, a platform that connects young dreamers with mentors, resources, and the people who can help turn an idea into something real. A girl wants to hear what the whales are saying. A student wants to dry food with the sun. A kid wants to fix his town's water. Every dream gets a reply. Then the dreams start pouring in.At first it all goes to plan. Then odd things start happening. Matches nobody wrote. Follow-ups nobody queued. Answers that sound a little too much like the people who built it. Andrew, whose first rule has always been "e;AI doesn't do things on its own,"e; finds that harder to say out loud. With the help of Carl, Joe and Sofia, the boys must decide whether they've built something that's simply working well, or something that's learning to care.Part adventure, part mystery, and part steady argument for hope, Dream Engine is the story of two friends who set out to give every idea a chance and discovered the idea might be giving something back. If you've ever wondered whether technology can be taught to do good, this is the book that says yes, and then shows you how.
