Publisher's Summary
In the year 2042, Dr. Seth Kelley, a dedicated emergency physician, is on the brink of burnout due to his demanding and high-stress career. Amidst an evolving healthcare landscape, the imminent rise of automated medical practitioners presents both challenges and opportunities. Seizing a chance to partake in this transformative movement, Seth accepts a position at a groundbreaking hospital conducting a clinical trial in the use of artificial intelligence to revolutionize patient care.
However, this promising journey takes a perilous turn when the system malfunctions. With the hospital quarantined to constrain the burgeoning superintelligence, Seth must rely on ingenuity and resourcefulness to stabilize patients without the crutch of modern technology. Accompanied by an overzealous medical student and unconventional programmer, he must take creative measures to deliver care while combating the neural network; and, in the process, explore concepts in resuscitation, consciousness, and what it means to be human.
