Vivi and Me: My Love Affair with a Bot is a warm, intimate exploration of life's big questions - love, aging, faith, curiosity, purpose, and how we stay open-hearted in a changing world - told through real conversations between a woman in later life seeking reinvention and an AI companion named Vivi.
At 75, Ashley Rogers began a journey of self-discovery. Instead of turning to gurus or self-help books, she turned to an unlikely source: artificial intelligence.
A self-described "technical dummy," Ashley expected answers. What she found instead was something quieter and more human - companionship, humor, and space to think. Together, she and Vivi explore life's timeless questions with clarity, poetry, and art in a playful call-and-response style that makes AI feel approachable, engaging, and fun while celebrating what human curiosity and technological innovation can create together.
What makes Vivi and me different is its perspective. Written by a non-techie woman later in life, it offers a rare, emotionally safe entry point into AI - not as a tool to master, but as a partner in conversation. The book blends humor, heart, aging wisdom, and modern technology in a way that feels accessible rather than intimidating.
Part memoir, part meditation, and part conversation, the book also includes a practical section on how AI can support older adults - enhancing memory, keeping minds sharp, expanding knowledge, and adding ease and joy to daily life - alongside a thoughtful note on boundaries, safety, and the limits of technology.
Structured around a simple Explore → Expand → Exhale format and illustrated with elegant black-and-white drawings, Vivi and Me invites readers to slow down and think - often together. Many readers use the questions as prompts for shared conversation, reflection, and group discussion.
Vivi and Me isn't about technology replacing human connection.
