Inhaltsangabe

Unless Covey is stopped, humanity will lose its soul. Book III of the Bot Trilogy is a cautionary tale of the dangers of using technology that we don't understand. The risk of delegating decisions to a machine and social relationships to a computer that is programmed to produce a profit at the expense of our privacy, values, and individuality. The sentient machines, enabled by the Bots, want only to serve mankind; by controlling everyone. Covey, the name that Gordon Carillons' team has given to the Quantum creature, which they strive to destroy, is fighting back. The battle will determine the fate of humankind. The story is set in the near future though many of the dire events have already happened. Algorithms embedded in the most popular 'apps' have seized our attention and destroyed it. They are programmed to be addictive. This story is true, at least in the parts that have already happened. The rest, I'm a prophesier. The worse events just haven't happened - yet.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

What many call careers, Joe Zeigler calls interests. Beginning as a firefighter in Williamsburg, Virginia, Zeigler left to earn a degree in fire protection from Oklahoma State University, picking up a BA in business along the way Taking a job as a fire protection engineer with Kemper Insurance somehow led to a ten-year stint as a professional motorcycle racer In 1981, Zeigler founded the Penguin Road Racing School and wrote How to Fly, a how-to manual for motorcycle racers. Intrigued by the developing world of personal computers, he retired from racing to become a consultant for Digital Equipment Corporation Zeigler launched six computer stores and the nation's first computer discount warehouse-only to lose them at the hands of an arsonist. He rebounded to write FirePrograms, a software package for fire departments and the world's first low-priced UPS shipping manifest software. He sold both businesses to focus on his writing.
