Will Artificial Intelligence unravel human society?
This is a powerful story of love and faith tested by the chasm between generations and the unforeseen consequences of AI's advancements.
A young CEO, working with his Gen Z team, creates an astonishing technology—a “wrapper” to Artificial Intelligence (AI)—designed to control hallucinations, provide guardrails, address AI ethics, and deliver sentience.
Taking a break from AI, he searches the Papua New Guinea jungle for the remains of his great-grandfather and returns home to learn of his mother’s mysterious past, rekindle the lost love of his girlfriend and help with her unique approach to solving climate change, and thwart the hijacking of his company’s technology by foreign agents.
This is the story of his journey to determine how courage, heritage, and technology reconcile with love, faith, and the relationships that form the life we have. In sharing his story, he reveals his fears and openly shares his heart—which is what his journey is really all about.
For perhaps we all struggle with matters of the heart.
But not so, AI.
