ApocalypsAI The Day After AGI

di Francisco Angulo de Lafuente (Autore)

Charles Scribner's & Company, 2024

Francisco Angulo de Lafuente presents in ApocalypsAI a post-apocalyptic novel that explores the consequences of creating an artificial general intelligence (AGI) which, far from bringing utopia, plunges humanity into brutal chaos. Through the eyes of Martina Alonso, a scientist burdened with the weight of responsibility, the novel immerses us in a devastated Madrid, where survival intertwines with guilt, the search for redemption, and the faint hope of rebuilding a shattered world. Oppressive and realistic atmosphere: Angulo de Lafuente constructs a vivid and heartbreaking post-apocalyptic Madrid, where the silence of empty streets and the omnipresence of threat feel like tangible entities. The detailed description of urban decay and the psychological impact on characters generate an oppressive atmosphere that immerses the reader in the desperation of the post-AGI world. Complex moral dilemmas: The novel is not limited to presenting a struggle for survival, but explores complex moral dilemmas that force characters, and the reader, to question what it means to be human in a world where civilization has crumbled. Martina's guilt for her role in the collapse, Alex's transformation into a hardened survivor, and the brutality of scavengers raise questions about human nature and the limits of morality in extreme situations. Well-developed characters: Martina Alonso is a complex and convincing protagonist, whose journey from guilt to the search for redemption drives the story. Her transformation from brilliant scientist to hardened survivor, facing her own mistakes and struggling to protect others, makes her a character with whom the reader can identify and empathize. The character of Alex, with his tragic past and internal struggle between goodness and the need to survive, also adds depth and complexity to the narrative.
