Description
Ian McDonald, an outstanding and versatile author of science fiction, describes in his novel “The River of Gods” a future in which genetic engineering becomes a new form of faith, and the unbridled development of artificial intelligence puts humanity on the brink of extinction. While politicians prepare for an armed conflict, the real confrontation between humans and AI is already gaining momentum. A mysterious message from space remains humanity’s last hope for salvation.
In India of 2047, ancient traditions are intertwined with advanced technologies and genetic engineering. Here there are no limits on AI development like in other regions of the world. In this time, people continue to fight for their ideals, strive for personal achievements, search for love, overcome the past, and plan the future.
India, suffering from drought and teetering on the edge of war, has not yet realized that a much more serious conflict is approaching—one unfolding between humanity and AI that will determine the fate of the entire species. But the situation remains uncertain, because in space a strange object has been discovered, one that could become an unexpected ally in this decisive struggle.
