Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Waterdown by Anastasia Slabucho

In the near future Fusion (an AI) is controlling the planet.   Geo, his creator, is having second thoughts about his ethics.

There is a lot of work coming out questioning the use of artificial intelligence.   Watching the daily news, one can help agreeing with the pundits that it wouldn’t take much for Ais to be smarter than their creators.   This author postulates that an AI with unlimited authority would make many decisions for the “greater good” that might be disastrous for the populace.


The effort was there and I wanted like the book better, particularly as the author is a vocal proponent of literacy. 


This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
