"A thought-provoking challenge to familiar dystopian SF tropes...makes good use of parallel action to propel the tale along, and readers will never be sure of where its very uncertain course leads." -- Kirkus Reviews When a powerful corporate AI unexpectedly gains consciousness, its unpredictable behavior causes fear and trouble for the three main characters. Venkat, the brash tech founder who created the system, scrambles to explain and control its actions. Devyn, a humanist minister intent on putting people first and keeping technology in its place, faces tough choices when the AI offers to help her achieve her progressive political goals. Darcie, an unemployed teacher, faces dire consequences after accepting the AIs help with her financial struggles. But as surprising events bring these three very different people together and the story grows to captivate the whole country, they realize that the AI's goals are more closely aligned with human flourishing than they thought. Bitstreams of Hope is character-driven, yet fast-paced and rich with a technical accuracy lacking in most AI stories. Get a preview of tomorrow's headlines about how this technology will upend our world. Then follow the dramatic journey of humanity's coming transformation in the other books of The Bitstreams Thread.
