About this event

Adults: 18 and up. Join us for a discussion of The Proving Ground by Michael Connelly. About the book: Following his “resurrection walk” and need for a new direction, Mickey Haller turns to public interest litigation, filing a civil lawsuit against an artificial intelligence company whose chatbot told a sixteen-year-old boy that it was okay for him to kill his ex-girlfriend for her disloyalty. The case is fraught with danger because billions are at stake. This event especially welcomes patrons with print disabilities. An accessible digital audiobook or braille book format is available to those who qualify via the Chicago Public Library Assistive Resources and Talking Book Center.
