Description
The SYMBIOSIS Introduction
The mid 22nd century. It is in many respects a world we would recognize. Like our own, it’s a world with instantaneous, worldwide communications, computers of ever increasing sophistication and permanent human occupancy of outer space. But it is also a very different world, a world in which a project started a century earlier by famed cyberneticist Irwin C. Jacobs, has solved the riddle of “artificial intelligence”. Determined to fulfill his lifelong dream of creating a cognitive entity, Jacobs forges ahead in 2047, daring to face the mockery of his colleagues, one of whom even accuses him of acting out Geppetto's dream.
The Jacobs Project, the introduction to SYMBIOSIS, tells the story in a series of vignettes of those who came after him, bringing his dream to fruition and changing our world forever.
