In a novel for teenagers, Mónica Zwaig connects the dictatorship with AI
Mónica Zwaig's latest novel for teenagers weaves together themes of Argentina's dictatorship and artificial intelligence as a means to explore history.
Mónica Zwaig, an Argentine lawyer and writer, has released a new young adult novel titled 'Avisale a mi mamá', which intriguingly connects the dark legacy of Argentina's military dictatorship with the contemporary world of artificial intelligence. Raised in France by Argentine parents, Zwaig has long been immersed in her heritage and the history of human rights in Argentina, having attended trials related to human rights abuses. In her latest work, she aims to bridge time periods, using AI as a narrative device that allows young readers to engage with the historical implications of the dictatorship in a way that feels relevant and accessible to their lives today.
