The Kindle App Now Has Built-In AI, Because of Course It Does

It's 2025, so every piece of technology now needs to have an AI component. It doesn't matter if these AI features are useful (though some are), they just need to be there, however ham-fisted or useless they may seem—though the line between those extremes often comes down to user preference. To that end, if you've ever been reading a book on the Kindle app and wished that you could ask your device a question about the text, Amazon has an AI bot for you.

Key Highlights

  • Last week, Amazon announced "Ask this Book," a new AI feature for the Kindle app.
  • Now available on the iOS version of the app, it lets you ask Amazon's AI questions about whatever it is you're reading, whether you bought or borrowed the title.
  • You can highlight a selection from the text to include in you're queries, and ask questions relating the story's plot, characters, relationships, and theme.
  • According to Amazon, all answers will be contextual, presumably meaning they'll all be related to the text at hand, and importantly, all answers will be spoiler-free.
  • That should help avoid the classic mistake of googling a question you have about a book you're reading and spoiling a coming plot twist or character death.
