Goodreads asked Liza Cordero:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Liza Cordero The Scientist King’s artificial intelligence was inspired by the one in the tv show, Person of Interest. The book’s AI also gathers data from video surveillance plus literature, news archives, and everything that’s online to come up with recommendations to guide its commune leaders. In Person of Interest it comes up with a person who will either commit a crime or fall victim to one while in the Scientist King it suddenly comes up with a match between two commune leaders as its solution to win an impending war against a race that still practices magic.
