Synopsis

Artificial Intelligence. AI. How does a machine learn to become self-aware? What is required for an AI to protect itself? Is the reality of racing toward sentient AI a threat to humanity? Are humans sprinting into a self-induced end-of-days?

A few thousand years ago, someone hid the coding needed for a machine to become self-aware.

We unlocked the cipher. Now, we must stop her.

Praise for Threshold

"R.C. Ducantlin grabs the reader and takes them on a fast-paced, nail-biting journey following the exploits of a rogue AI hell-bent on making humanity obsolete. Can't wait to read the next one!" - Beta Reader

"A story with twists and turns that will make you desperate to read the next chapter. The characters are distinct, and the unfolding of the story is perfectly paced. Understanding AI and its capabilities can be technical and boring, but this story is funny, intriguing, and brings to light the darkness that AI could cause." - Amy

"A story reminiscent of War Games meets Transcendence meets 2001: A Space Odyssey, Threshold takes you on an adventure into how much closer we are to the complexities of true and complete artificial intelligence than we realize. What would happen if an AI program exceeded its programming to become self-aware? Would it have the same morals that humankind claims to share? What if we lost control....?" - Courtney

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Fortunately, in secondary school, my interest in reading was sparked. A close friend and an instructor, who took interest in a boy he later called 'The rebel without a clue., ' were instrumental in my learning the value of a good book. Both piqued my interest in reading.

My lifelong friend inspired me to read J.R.R. Tolkien and I became addicted to the fantasy genre. The instructor required I read interesting historical novels for academic credit. Frank Norris, Leon Uris, and Ken Follett are inspirations and fuel my love of history.

Born to a military family, it was logical that I follow the military tradition. However, after four years of "yes sirs" and scraping the wax off floors I decided there must be more fun in a corporate career.

Thirty plus years of work experiences across the globe, the corporate career landed me in Colorado, where I live with my wife and I can be close to my children and grandchildren.
