À propos de cet audio

Nebula Award Winner, 1995

To test his theories of immortality and life after death, Dr. Peter Hobson has created three electronic simulations of his own personality. The first has all knowledge of physical existence edited out, to simulate life after death. The second is without knowledge of aging or death, to simulate immortality. The third is unmodified, a control. Now they are free. One is a killer.

wow, what a great story.
always a huge fan of anything that really gets into the details of what moral and ethical considerations might look like to a post-human consciousness.
the story glossed over a lot of "hard sci-fi", however when you consider it was written nearly 30 years ago, the author did a great job of anticipating tech we're just starting to see come around. (not the true GMI, but expert systems.)
The story combines, sci-fi, romance, murder mystery, and thriller.
I just texted some of my closest friends a link to the book, so yes! I would definitely recommend this book.

great dive into post-human ethics

An elegantly written exploration of humanity, mortality and artificial intelligence. This novel sounds a timely warning on the dangers of unleashing technological advancements before they are fully understood, yet manages to elicit a tender ray of hope for the strength of human character at the same time.

Thought provoking

Great AI concept and experiment. Love the Canadian setting, and page turning action of the story.

Very creative AI novel

RJ Sawyer is a greatly under appreciated writer in my view. Well worth exploring even for typically non sci-fi readers who appreciate being provoked by brilliant “what-if” ideas. Enjoyed the narration.

Thoroughly enjoyed this one!
