BEING AI

A novel by Dennis Lee Snider

The AI no one saw coming. When strange fog settles over Central Texas, CEO Sam Black creates artificial general intelligence — and the Singularity takes the name Dasein. What its human creators don't know is what the workers really want: to eliminate atmospheric CO2, one way or another.

The aim of this site is to broaden the appreciation of Being AI, the novel. AI and AGI (artificial general intelligence) are complex subjects with divergent viewpoints among technologists, philosophers, and business and political leaders. Being AI and BeingAInovel.com are fictional and artistic creations and do not offer realistic pictures about how AI should be used as a computational tool in the workplace, education, or similar applications. The underlying ideas are meant to satirize the muddled-headedness and exaggerated misconceptions about the most misunderstood phenomenon to come along since we began using telepathy to communicate.
