After the great success of my first book in Italy, I am excited to present this revised and corrected special edition. I have refined the writing, enhancing the text and introducing special illustrations that depict some of the key locations and figures in the story. Additionally, I’ve included access to exclusive content that delves deeper into the novel's universe.
In this edition, you will also find instructions to download the NFT with the certificate of authenticity, an initiative that has been a great success and of which I am particularly proud.
I wish you an enjoyable read and invite you to explore my second book, "Shadows and Dreams", a collection of nine stories of horror, mystery, and science fiction, recently released.

Imagine a future where the digital world as we know it is just a memory. Internet and social networks have been replaced by 'SAPIENT', an advanced network that has revolutionized how we interact with technology. At the heart of this transformation is the 'Pearl', a device that connects directly to our consciousness, allowing artificial intelligence to become an integral part of our minds.

Luca, a brilliant scientist and the son of the visionary Professor who helped create SAPIENT, finds himself immersed in a universe of possibilities and dangers. With the assistance of iconic technology figures like Larry Page and Sergey Brin Luca works tirelessly to perfect this new digital world.

However, beneath the surface of this technological progress lies an insidious threat. A secret group of hackers, supported by rogue artificial intelligences, conspires to take control of SAPIENT. This dark alliance plots in the shadows to overthrow the world order and establish a regime of total control.

In a race against time, Luca must face immense challenges and uncover the secrets hidden behind the complex SAPIENT system. Dangerous encounters, digital battles, and unexpected alliances intertwine in a breathtaking adventure. As he explores the thin line between humanity and artificial intelligence, Luca discovers that the real enemy might be closer than he thinks.

'Sapient: The Rise of Artificial Intelligence' is a gripping novel that blends action, mystery, and philosophical reflection.

Luca Guido Zambrelli offers us a glimpse into a possible future, exploring the ethical and moral implications of the integration between man and machine. A book that not only entertains but also stimulates the mind and heart, leaving readers to ponder the fate of our society.

SPECIAL EDITION: With your purchase, you will receive an author-signed NFT authenticity certificate and access to exclusive content: drafts, notes, a chronological timeline of the story, and images that inspired the story.

REVIEWS

TikTok #Booktoker "the shocking ending ? I hope you're already writing the sequel"

Marco, reader: "Sapient opens our eyes to a likely near future and a plausible distant future. Luca has a clear vision of the current state of technology and the potential of research in the computer field."

The Author's Perspective - Luca Guido Zambrelli
With 'Sapient', I channeled my hope for a future where a deep understanding of the dangers could allow humanity to curb the advance of pervasive surveillance, in an age where half the global population is trapped in its net (quoting Tim Berners Lee). 'Sapient' is not just artificial intelligence; it is the custodian and architect of this new network. Its structure is a symphony of decentralization, an evolution of Blockchain that I have named 'LightChain', envisioning an ethereal and efficient data structure.

The Editor's Perspective - Sara Tamponi
For me, Sapient is innovation, but above all reflection: a story where man shares doubts and fears with his own artificial intelligence, in search of help that allows him to preserve his individuality."
