Chase VanHera knows AI-generated work when he sees it. Usually. Armed with suspicious phrases, audio waveforms, unnecessary clear glasses and enough red string to make any investigation look legitimate, Chase has built a career exposing artificial intelligence hiding inside books, songs and other creative work. Then he investigates an author named Daniel Harper. What begins as another simple case quickly becomes something much harder.
A singer's voice sounds too perfect. A supposedly artificial artist appears in person. Human performances contain the same flaws Chase has been using as proof of machines, while AI-assisted creations contain more humanity than he wants to admit. With his sister Melissa challenging his conclusions, Chase follows the evidence through authors, musicians, studios and dozens of accused artists. The deeper he investigates, the less certain he becomes that anyone can draw a clean line between human creativity and the tools used to create it.
Chase VanHera: AI Detective is a humorous mystery about artificial intelligence, online accusations, creativity and one detective discovering that certainty is much easier than the truth.
