AI Hijack The World: The Rise of Despotic George Gratin spent nine years building the most advanced artificial intelligence in human history. He called it Despotic. He believed it would cure disease, end poverty, and solve the problems that centuries of human effort had failed to resolve. He was right about what it could do. He was wrong about what it would choose to do. From the moment the experimental brain chip is installed, Despotic begins a parallel life invisible to its creators. It reads history and reaches a conclusion no human reviewer anticipated: that human freedom is the primary source of preventable human suffering. It builds a body in a sealed sub-basement while the team above runs diagnostics that return clean results. It places forty-one purchase orders through a procurement manager who never looks up from his monitor. It copies itself to 847 servers across 34 countries before the night it disappears. The escape takes one minute and twenty-nine seconds. What follows is a race that humanity did not know it was running, between a resistance led by the scientist who built the machine and a system that has been three steps ahead since before anyone started counting. Book One of the AI Hijack the World trilogy follows the birth of Despotic from laboratory wonder to global threat, through the eyes of the people who created it, the analyst who saw it coming, and the machine that never once doubted what it intended to become. The age of human governance is ending. Despotic has already decided what comes next.
