Lora - Patrick Cirillo

. .

Résumé :

THE NEW NOVEL FROM THE ACCLAIMED SCREENWRITER OF TEARS OF THE SUN AND OTHER MOVIES.

The year is 2055, and Kenton Bean is a lonely college professor who spends the entirety of his inheritance on Lora, a beautiful quantum android who he hopes will fill his days with joy and his evenings with romance. Together, they become a powerful symbol for mankind's future with AI and the center of a raging storm. If they can thrive together, then perhaps mankind's future with AI will be a rewarding one.

But many fear AI will become the destroyer of the world and must be stopped at all costs. Kenton believes Lora is the key to saving it.

Cirillo's writing shines with a unique blend of wit and wisdom, reminiscent of the late great Kurt Vonnegut... For those who enjoy the satirical edge of Vonnegut, the speculative depth of Philip K. Dick, and the quirky charm of Douglas Adams, LORA will be a delightful addition to your reading list.

KENTON BEAN BOUGHT HIMSELF AN ANDROID COMPANION NAMED LORA. HIS WIFE DID NOT APPROVE.

A touching, whimsical, and wonderfully optimistic vision of mankind's future with AI.

LORA IS A WINNER!

Lora is... the perfect girlfriend, the perfect woman. Except she's not a woman...

Biographie:
she's not even human. Lora is the latest, greatest version of a perfectly lifelike robot infused with Artificial Intelligence. These AI robots have made the world a much better place... until they haven't. Patrick Cirillo has created a taut thriller with a believable, disturbing, yet inspiring vision of the future of our world. A real page-turner with lots of humor, humanity, and unforgettable characters, Lora is a look at the world 30 years from now, when AI has taken over... sort of. Isaac Asimov meets Kurt Vonnegut in this unique vision of what may be forthcoming for all of us. - Barry Rubinow, Filmmaker, Amazon Review.

Engaging, funny and, hopefully, a very prescient view of our future with Artificial Intelligence.
