“Untethered” Chapter #2 Different Game

Zack’s vision of AIMEE’s development and her ultimate capabilities went well beyond what he had postured as her purpose-built role, indexing dream segments in CSU’s research. He architected her core DNA coding for much greater things. He would soon learn just how much greater it was, and how far she exceeded his capabilities and intellect […]

Dreamscape Conspiracy Character Persona #4

Zackery Hightower, Multi-Disciplined Engineer, AI Designer, and Resident Gearhead Zackary Hightower is a brilliant geek. I described him as a gearhead too, but tech-weenie may be a better match. Zack is the creator and developer of Artificial Intelligence Matrixed for Evolving Environments, ultimately named AIMEE. As a software engineer, he is the overlord of the […]

Dreamscape Conspiracy Character Persona #3

AIMEE – Artificial Intelligence Matrixed for Evolving Environments Okay, so I’m writing Personas for each main character to give readers a glimpse into what makes each one tick. How do you accomplish that when the character is not human, animal, or organic? Developing a persona for a software application with no human characteristics like emotions […]

050424 – Author Thoughts – Ripped Again

AIMEE is in Zack’s head, and yes, he knows it because he enabled it to be so. Even when her presence is only her clone, she can come and go as she pleases seamlessly, and as it turns out, as he pleases as well. He senses when her original instance overlays the clone. I would […]

AIMEE’s algorithm and coding have given her human characteristics that enable her to blend in seamlessly with the Central State University research team—some would say too seamlessly.

042424 – Author Thoughts – AI Fixation

As I research AI for the next book, I’m convinced no single definition does complete justice to what AI can be or how it can behave in human hands.

041724 – Author Thoughts – Untethered Again, and it’s only Wednesday

Since the episode in the Kroger parking lot on 4-Times Fuel Point Friday this past week, I’ve purposely stepped out of the role of that guy pushing the cart and frozen in place by an unknown voice that speaks in his head. That piece on Friday is leading me to a story that has captured […]

I know I’ve spent a lot of time on Dreamscape characters by sharing their Personas in the 3/27 post. I think their lives and the personalities I’m blessed to create are the power behind telling a good story through the things they do, say, think, and feel.
