About This Book
Eleven years old—an age when you can't survive a single day without a best friend. Friends are undoubtedly your biggest worry. But in this classroom, there's nothing to worry about. An AI analyzes personalities, interests, and concerns, then prints out a "BFF Probability" as a number.
In the classroom of BFF Probability: 3%, there's a "peaceful" kind of friendship—one built with reassurance, paired up by artificial intelligence. No need to worry about failing to make friends. No bullying, not even a minor squabble—a perfectly "safe" friendship. Our protagonist, Suin Choi, smoothly became best friends with Dayun Jo, her 98% match. The problem? There's another classmate she can't stop thinking about, someone she's curious about—and their BFF Probability is a mere 3%. When AI has stamped a friendship "not meant to be," yet Suin's heart keeps pulling her toward that friend, what choices will Suin, Minha, and Dayun make?
BFF Probability: 3% is set in a fourth-grade classroom where AI pairs up "perfect" best friends, and it asks big questions about friendship and the heart. How far should we trust AI's judgment? Is it okay to hand our choices over to an algorithm? As young readers follow this compelling story, they encounter the kind of real friendship that can only grow from awkwardness, misunderstandings, and conflict. This book offers a spirited cheer to children growing up in the age of AI—rather than blindly following along because "that's what the AI said," it encourages them to ask themselves, "What kind of friend do I want to make?" and to give their own choices a chance.
