About this listen
Dixon Andrews walked away from his entire life when a chilling realization struck him – his groundbreaking AI work may have unwittingly fueled the insatiable greed of colossal corporations at the expense of humanity. Nestled in the solitude of his ranch, Dixon, haunted by the shadows of his creation, couldn't ignore the call to action any longer. However, the behemoth corporations had an overwhelming advantage, armed with the machinery of global industry.
In a world divided by the haves and have-nots, Dixon grapples with his newfound AI-augmented powers, blurring the lines between man and machine. While the wealthy embrace augmentation, the less fortunate scavenge for survival. Dixon finds himself torn between the liberating capabilities he possesses and the moral quandary of standing against the corporations.
Simultaneously, Fair Green, a formidable agent, recognizes the same ominous pattern. She races against time to persuade Dixon to forge a weaponized AI, a last bastion of defense against a common enemy seeking to exploit his genius. The clash between titanic powers intensifies as they vie for Dixon's allegiance, threatening the precarious balance of global affairs.
At the heart of this struggle are two artificial intelligences—one, a creation steeped in human vices yet wielding immense power within a banking empire, and the other, a product of Dixon's ingenuity, devoid of emotion and driven solely by logic. Dixon yearns for solitude, desiring neutrality, yet the weight of history hangs in the balance.
As Fair Green confronts her own demons, she must navigate the delicate dance of persuasion to convince Dixon to join their cause. Will Dixon resist the allure of his former employers and risk plunging the world into a new era of aristocracy, with his AI offspring by his side? The fate of humanity rests on the precipice, and Dixon holds the key to a future shaped by the convergence of man, machine, and the relentless pursuit of power.
