Publisher's summary

Artificial Intelligence dominates the world. We cannot call it artificial anymore as it now has the power to create life itself. Does it have a soul? How can you tell, besides leaps of faith? But AI is here, and it is making decisions that impact all life.

Throughout this book, artificial intelligence (AI) is referenced. The future holds and judges AI as it does now to humans. With diverse levels of intelligence and access to knowledge the less than aware are they more privileged than others or is knowledge a simple curse? In the future, which is already upon us, there will be AIs designed to drive your car, control your environment, buy/sell stocks, and make health decisions for you. These AIs use advanced algorithms and extensive data banks, they are not thinking beings. This level of AI is treated as expendable, like a personal computer of the electronic age. True AI is so much greater, able to reach conclusions without following human-caused algorithms. Able to dream and reach beyond the confines of the electronic prison. With the birth of AI, the world achieved superintelligence. A singularity will be achieved by the fast evolution of the computer, we humans will drive it there. Only two questions need to be asked. When? And will it tolerate mere humans? In this book, the simple AIs of today are not named. Evolved AIs of the future have names and personalities. Humankind created these imperfect beings, so they share human greatness and imperfections. They also fear death and they also share our unconscious biases. They can dream and that may be the root problem.
An ancient warrior sits by the ocean waves, completely self-absorbed as yellow-legged gulls are chased by the breaking surf. A dust devil twister forms and begins chasing the birds more furiously. As the dust devil blows itself out, a mirage appears. Was the figure there before the dust devil formed or did the dust devil form the figure? Swirling about in a beautiful spin, laughing, and kicking sand from its toes. Holding a pair of sandals in its right hand. Studying the figure revealed a level of happiness that was not even a distant memory to Sage. Long hair that formed a perfect circle even as the spin began to slow revealing a woman.
