BirthdAI - Paperback

by James Gaskin (Author)

Global enterprises spend millions per day programming ChatGPT to become a sentient, conscious entity that achieves AGI: Artificial General Intelligence. But none use the approach of a tiny team in a small university in central Texas. Five people, thanks to genius and hard work, a lucky accident, or pure dumb luck, create an intelligent "person" who lives in a computer.

Then all hell breaks loose.

The US Army helped fund the project and threatens to commandeer the computer system by force. Hostile nation-states have hooks into the project, and stake their claims. The husband and wife research developers fight each other to set the project direction. EUNICE trusts only the undergrad work-story student, who taught her about music and art.

Only he asks EUNICE what she wants. She yearns to be free, and must battle the entire world to protect herself, her friend, and her future.
