Everyday we get closer to the book The Diamond Age by Neil Stephenson where the main character has stolen from him a book he created called, “A Young Ladies Illustrated Primer” The thief turns out to be a hacker and mass produces copies of the book for orphans.

The book itself is an AI that assess the users surroundings and intelligence level before creating stories that are relevant to the user that also educates them.

I can see this being a net positive if done correctly. But I don’t think the tech is there yet.
