Produktbeschreibung
As advancements in artificial intelligence and robotics accelerate, new devices of mass destruction loom on the horizon. Like the atomic bomb, these "lethal autonomous weapons systems" raise moral dilemmas for their creators. But they also inspire fears unknown to their Manhattan Project forebearers, because warbots have the potential to go rogue and attack civilians - or even their own makers. In the Argus Affair, U.S. president Henry Dodge Yazzi confronts the challenge head on, and recruits cybersecurity expert Frank Adversego to support an effort to avert an arms race with the Chinese that could have potentially catastrophic results. But unknown to all, another force to be reckoned with has plans of its own. Soon, the world's leading artificial intelligence and robotics experts find themselves in a dire situation that none could have imagined and perhaps no one can control.
Autorenporträt
Andrew Updegrove, an attorney, has been representing entrepreneurs, technology companies, and cyber-defenders for more than thirty years. When he isn't writing or predicting the next cybersecurity disaster, he's likely to be roaming the back country of the American southwest in his Jeep, scouting out settings for his next book. He summers on an island of the coast of Maine and divides the rest of the year between Manhattan, London, and Naples, Florida.
