About the Author
S. Maitra is a failed entrepreneur who once tried to build a platform to help Gen Z triangulate truth through multiple perspectives. Kids wanted none of it, gravitating instead to TikTok and the single, unblinking voice of ChatGPT. That hard lesson drove her to write "God in the Machine."
A mother of three, Maitra also teaches video game law at Stanford and co-authored a free, open-access casebook on the subject. She now writes on the prophetic power of AI—how it sounds certain even when it shouldn't, and why we're beginning to treat it as divine.
