Produktbeschreibung

In the not too distant future, Simon, Jane, Stephen and John graduate from university and secure IT positions in the industries of banking, agriculture, power and telecommunications. At their regular reunions, they discuss the benefits of using machines to assist in their work. They become credited with introducing artificial intelligence (AI) into their respective industries. The success of this improves productivity and living standards across the planet. Then, gradually, it becomes noticed that the AI is developing and is beginning to make independent decisions. One academic begins to understand the motivation of the super intelligence and the real threat posed by them -the replacement of humans as the most intelligent life form on the planet. But will anyone take his concerns seriously?
