Speculative Fiction writer Tony Thorne MBE (89) recently signed a contract with the IT Books Division, Posts & Telecommunications Press, a branch of the Chinese Ministry of Information, based in  Beijing, for eBook and paperback versions of his latest title, THE SINGULARITY  IS COMING.  

Artificial (General) Intelligence, or AGI is coming and will change our way of life dramatically, following on from the Smart Devices we use today. Even more amazing developments are on the way, leading to AGI and the Singularity, an event which cannot be reversed. Many experts believe this will happen in less than nine years, leading to robotic machines far more intelligent than we are, and thus able to do any jobs that humans can do, faster, better and for longer. Many experts believe they will also have awareness, plus the ability to replicate themselves and develop their “learning” software leading inevitably to ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence).  The runaway consequences of that incredible development will change our way of life completely. Will we be ready for such a devastating event? Will it be a threat to humanity as several experts believe, and block-buster movies, predict? Others claim it will benefit us in ways we can hardly imagine, such as a healthy age of leisure with everything free.

Every Wednesday night, (unless it's a major holiday) we'll open the room for all of you to come and chat. This is your chance to ask anything. The only dumb question is the one you don't ask. If you don't ask, how will you ever learn the answer? Join us, 8-10 pm ET (New York Time) for an open chat. We look forward to chatting with you!
 
Having problems with your writing? Need plot advice or marketing tips? Looking for suggestions on who/what to read next? Come on in! If we don't know the answer, we'll make something up. We are creative people, ya know.  By 8 pm ET (New York Time) the door will be open. Login directions are on the Enter Chatroom page.
