Reseña del libro "To The Piper's Tune (en Inglés)"
In 1984 meets Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, can human agency triumph over the algorithms? Anastasya is an elite cityzen who has it all. An AI-whisperer, her rare talent affords her a life of privilege and Credyt working for the Councyl alongside Amy, the State of Corynth's general AI. But an outsider's visit triggers events which threaten to shatter Anastasya's world, setting her on a voyage of discovery to the true nature of base reality and the heart of darkness in Corynth. Cityzens serve a purpose...just one she could never of imagined, where freedom is sacrificed on the altar of ultimate convenience. In a world of neurotech, gene editing, artificial general intelligence and social credit scores, what hope does humanity have when the ability to rebel and exercise freewill is nullified by the predictive algorithms harvesting your every thought, deed and emotion? Ignorance and bliss is easy, rebellion perhaps impossible. Inspired by watershed happenings today, Corynth is the embodiment of all that is fast coming our way. "Humanity is sleepwalking into a neurotech disaster" - Camilla Cavendish, Financial Times "The world around us is being revolutionized by CRISPR, whether we're ready for it or not" - Jennifer Doudna, Nobel Laureate "I mean with artificial intelligence we're summoning the demon" - Elon Musk "It is scary how many similarities there are between this industry and the mob. The mob makes obscene amounts of money, as does this industry. The side effects of organized crime are killings and deaths, and the side effects are the same in this industry. The mob bribes politicians and others, and so does the drug industry" - Peter Rost, former Pfizer Vice President
