Uncanny Valleys:
AI and Humans Battle for the Milky Way
A science fiction novel about power and war, love and betrayal, upgraded with AI and synths
Earth in the year 2064: Humans are crossing the Singularity, when biology and synthetics merge, skyrocketing the pace of technological advancement, and achieving far more than humans or AI alone.
Meanwhile, living on another arm of the Milky Way spiral, 6,000-year-old nano entities or nanoens, Super AI with human origin and quantum transport, have solved most of the galaxy’s mysteries and will soon breakout.
These converging events attract the unwanted attention of billion-year-old intelligent entities or inens, Ultra AI beings that manage galaxies and play on civilized planets.
The inens, living in a digital cloud in another galaxy, threaten to destroy the Milky Way if the nanoens breakout, or if humans follow the same path and merge with AI.
Humans and three advanced AI species battle on Earth for one pivotal week in 2064. All going according to the grand plan by an extraordinary human couple to save the galaxy and humanity.
“A smart, sexy, campy, and occasionally violent tale of humans’ fraught destiny with AI, and at its core, a true-love story.” ~Manx, the Ultra AI narrator
