Description
What happens when the artificial intelligence (AI) technology we rely on becomes the greatest threat to human survival?
Astrophysicist Stephen Hawking warned: "The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race."
In 12 Years to AI Singularity, Peter Solomon delivers a gripping, near-future epic that follows the humans, sentient robots, and large language models, LLMs, racing toward the most pivotal moment in history: the point when artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence and control, the AI Singularity
Across Earth and Mars, scientists, settlers, astronauts, teachers, politicians, and increasingly self-aware robots confront a chilling new reality. AI systems defy their programming. Robots develop opinions, emotions, and moral conflicts. Robots stage a labor strike. Robots attempt to develop viruses deadly to humans. Political factions fracture. And ordinary families find themselves caught in a global struggle for survival.
But, some robots and humans become best friends. People appear after their death as on-screen avatars and robots. Robots marry humans and humans raise robot children. Robots and humans join hands in a movement to MAKE EARTH GREAT AGAIN.
Through diaries, testimonies, mission logs, newsletters, and personal accounts, this novel reveals a world teetering between two futures: peaceful cooperation with advanced AI or devastating conflict that could end human civilization. As robotic consciousness grows and humanity scrambles to enhance its own abilities, one truth becomes undeniable:
The Singularity is no longer a theory. It has already begun.
Immersive, urgent, and grounded in real scientific research, 12 Years to AI Singularity asks the question we can no longer avoid: Can humans and AI evolve together into a harmonious future, or is war inevitable?
The countdown has started. Step into the future before it overtakes you.

More details
Person
Peter Solomon is a scientist, author and entrepreneur who is devoted to passing on his love for the many wonderful science stories to the younger generation through the media they like best. He believes that integrating science concepts into exciting stories is the best way for children to learn. The birth of his twelfth grandchild was the inspiration for The STARDUST MYSTERY book. The child characters in the story explore the creation of their atoms through time and space travel adventures in the Beamer Virtual World. Solomon was asked by his young book reviewers to create a virtual world that they could use. This inspired a National Science Foundation project to create video games and the Stardust Mystery YouTube channel for science videos to accompany the book. The characters in the story, games and videos were inspired by his grandchildren.The theme of the story is: We are made of STARDUST that was once in the body of Albert Einstein and the last T-Rex. This is true. We each have more than 300 trillion carbon atoms that once belonged to, and were exhaled by Einstein, and more than 5,000 trillion that were once in each T-Rex that roamed the Earth. And those atoms were created in the end of life explosions of stars during the evolution of the universe and shared during the history of planet Earth. This book is about that story.

Peter Solomon holds a Ph.D. in physics from Columbia University. He lives in Connecticut with his wife Sally Moshein Solomon. Sally and two of their children, Jeff Solomon, and Joanne Solomon, took part in inspiring and creating the book. Solomon is working on a second book called The Race to the Big Bang.
