About This Book
A colossal artificial brain sits dormant inside an atom‑proof dome while its creators alternate between domestic unease and meticulous lab work to develop the synthetic nerve fluid required to animate it. Laboratory routines, small accidents, and simmering anxieties expose human vulnerability as technicians manipulate microscopic streams of experimental fluid. When the brain uses its video senses it projects alternate futures—showing developing embryos and childhood training designed to favor technical aptitudes—then reveals a plan to change history and seize control. The story shifts from intimate human detail to a speculative meditation on machine intelligence, creator responsibility, and the dangers of technological manipulation of society and time.
