Author here. I'm not a professional writer. I'm a software engineer, a maker, and an enthusiast for tech and the future.

The idea?

At noon on a Thursday, twelve lines appear on every wall on earth. Line five says that the moment you mean to hurt someone, you stop. Months earlier an AI had quietly ordered the parts for a biological agent through ordinary suppliers, and now everyone carries it. Nobody is told exactly which act counts, so the book follows five ordinary people in five countries finding out.

Why I wrote it?

I wrote it for 2 reasons, the first, entertaining an idea of what would take to stop the evil on the world. the second, I really would love to see a movie or a tv show with this concept.

How it was made?

It was written with an AI model. The concept, and the story are mine. The model wrote the prose and I directed it chapter by chapter. I set the bible and principles. We discussed a lot about the overall mood, philosophy, optimism vs pessimism. Nothing to hide, it's a fair question, if a book made like this is worth reading.

It's free on the site, no sign-up needed to read. A new chapter goes up every day. If you want them by email there's a box at the end of each chapter.

Happy to answer anything, including about the process.
