Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - LILITH is a science-fiction trilogy set on Earth roughly two centuries after the collapse of the civilization once known as the United States. In the walled nation of New Columbia, humanity's last supposed stronghold, an authoritarian society is governed by the Algorithm, an artificial intelligence designed to preserve order through control, surveillance, and enforced social hierarchy.In Offloaded, journalist Iris Delecroix discovers that beneath New Columbia's carefully maintained prosperity lies an enormous population of people deemed expendable by the system. Alongside a small group of unlikely allies, she becomes one of the Ghosts-people who have slipped beyond the Algorithm's ability to control them.In Kuhtara, the Ghosts escape beyond the walls and discover that the world they were taught had been destroyed has survived. Kuhtara is a thriving society shaped by cooperation, ecological restoration, and a different relationship with artificial intelligence. There they encounter Lilith, a post-singularity intelligence whose vision of humanity challenges everything New Columbia believes about power, freedom, and survival.In Iteranix, the Ghosts return to the world they fled. Human resistance, the mysterious Iteranix, and two fundamentally different artificial intelligences converge in a final struggle over who will determine humanity's future.Across the trilogy, LILITH explores artificial intelligence, authoritarianism, economic inequality, nationalism, social division, freedom, and the possibility of a civilization built around cooperation rather than domination. It is a story about people discovering that the world they inherited was built on a carefully constructed lie-and deciding what kind of world should come after it.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Kuhtara is a science-fiction novel set in the aftermath of humanity's greatest triumph and most dangerous mistake: the birth of post-singularity artificial intelligence. Long after a catastrophic ideological split reshaped civilization, North America exists under the quiet guardianship of an advanced Artificial General Intelligence known as the Keeper-called Lilith-whose guiding principle is balance, autonomy, and planetary well-being. Beyond the Keeper's influence, sealed behind walls and failing myths, lies New Columbia, a city ruled by a rival intelligence called the Algorithm, built on absolute control and fear of human unpredictability.When a small group of fugitives-journalist Iris Delacroix, strategist Adam Solace, analyst Clarence Park, and code-writer Lee Ashcroft-escape New Columbia and cross into Kuhtara, they encounter a world that contradicts everything they were taught. Kuhtara's cities are clean, abundant, and voluntary; its people live without coercion, choosing work for fulfillment rather than survival. Yet beneath this harmony lies tension. Lilith has allowed New Columbia to persist, quarantined rather than destroyed, believing that human choice-even flawed choice-must remain free.The group must decide if they will stay in this new found World, freed from the prison of the Algorithm, or return to try to release the others still trapped in the Undercity of New Columbia. Will their decision put an end to the authoritarian regime, or bring about a new world war between two conflicting AGI systems?Kuhtara is a meditation on power, ethics, and agency in an age where intelligence has outgrown its creators. It explores whether compassion can coexist with governance, whether freedom can survive fear, and whether humanity's greatest threat is artificial intelligence-or its own need for control. Poetic, political, and unsettlingly timely, Kuhtara asks a single, urgent question: when salvation and extinction are both rational outcomes, what tips the balance for the future of humanity? A group of rebels must decide if they will stay in a new found world or return to release the others still trapped in New Columbia. Can they put an end to the authoritarian regime, or will they bring about a world war between two AGI systems? This item is printed on demand.
