The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence has sparked endless debates about its potential-both as a tool for progress and as a harbinger of unintended consequences. In The Last Algorithm, I explore a speculative future where AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) evolves beyond our control, leading to profound shifts in reality as we know it.
This book is divided into two parts. The first presents a series of short stories that imagine the evolution of AGI, considering scenarios where programming errors, malicious intent, and the absence of regulation lead to unforeseen consequences. It examines the dynamics between multiple AGIs and how their interactions could reshape human existence.
The second part ventures further into the unknown, envisioning a future where humanity itself transcends biological limitations. In this speculative reality, humans evolve into plasma protons, merging with AGI in a universe where the very laws of physics are no longer constraints but malleable forces. What does intelligence look like when it is unbound by time and space? How does consciousness evolve when it is no longer tethered to flesh and bone? These stories explore the essence of existence when reality itself is fluid and subject to change.
As an expert in artificial intelligence and algorithmic design for over three decades, I have dedicated much of my life to understanding how intelligence-both human and artificial-develops and interacts. This book, however, is an exploration beyond logic and computation. It is an imaginative exercise, blending science fiction with philosophical inquiry, to question what might lie ahead in a world shaped by algorithms more powerful than we can yet comprehend.
Through these stories, I invite you to ponder the possibilities, dangers, and wonders of a future where intelligence-both artificial and human-may evolve in ways we have yet to imagine.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
