About this listen
AWE (the Artificial Wisdom Engine) is developed by our heroes to avert a catastrophic tipping point predicted by a climate model. AWE must also combat pernicious disinformation, particularly the fake news generated by an industrialist—a psychopathic and murderous antagonist linked to Putin, who is determined to protect his and his clients' interests. The team is led by renaissance man Pic de Lucrète and Lily Lee, an off-scale smart young mathematician whose Chinese family still suffers from the effects of the Tiananmen Massacre. The action moves from Palo Alto and Stanford, to Moscow, Tokyo, and Beijing. Eventually, Xi Jinping lends China's might to the effort, establishing the notion that international cooperation is vital, alongside scientific rigor, to solve global issues.
