'The Final Chapter'
Good Morning,
Fellow Readers and Authors, I hope you have all had a great day wherever you are.
Last night I found myself tinkering with one of my AI art programs, producing an array of various designs.
Nothing unusual you may think, and neither did I, until a thought occurred to me.
My life as an engineer centred on the construction of those wonderfully lifeless edifices called Data Centres. I say lifeless, as in reality that is what they.
Normally they are manned by a handful of souls purposed at ensuring the continuity of the facilities services.
The fact is they are overseeing the ‘Great Machine’, which seldom, if ever requires the human touch once it is operational thanks to technology.
Whilst I was absorbed in one particular design, the thought occurred to me, how far removed we are as a species from that glorious publication that rocked the world in 1859.
Yes, you’ve got it! ‘On the Origin of Species.’
Poor Charles Darwin would have a coronary if he could see the evolution that has taken place since his departure.
I am referring of course to the core subject of my novels, that irritating itch on the cranium of humanity – Artificial Intelligence.
Darwin’s ability to unravel the history of evolution, and present it to the world in such a fashion caused a sensation amongst the scientific community. The church were no less unimpressed either.
Fast forward to our current timeline, and what do we now have? Our world has been bombarded with technology at a prolific rate since the end of the Second World War.
Our children have, and or are as the case maybe, growing up in a society where the acceptance of artificial intelligence is the norm.
We have fed their imagination, with countless films portraying the normality of humanoid machines imbedded in our society.
And one day very soon it will be a reality.
If only Darwin were alive today. He would bear witness to the final chapter of his work, rewritten of course to embody that final part of our species evolution.
Please take a look at this link. The quotation sums up the situation perfectly.

In the meantime, our sincere thanks as always, to those of you adding one of the ‘Our Blue Orange’ series to your bookshelves over the week.
Thank you, it is much appreciated.
Enjoy your week ahead. Stay safe, and keep reading and writing 😊
Best Wishes
