Broken: Necrosis by Steve Croy
"The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do." – B. F. Skinner
David Castillo was human once. Circumstances beyond his control changed that.
Alerted to the possibility that a new human/AI interface project is underway at IQRobotics,
David decides to investigate. It is a calculated risk, one his symbiont, SARACEN, cautions against,
but it may be necessary to prevent anyone from discovering they exist.
Though he isn't sure he still lives, Sergei Prokov would like to locate David Castillo.
It would allow his researchers to reverse-engineer the AI chips in his body. The current
development of human brain implants is proceeding too slowly for him. Prokov is desperate
to speed the development of the AI technology he hopes will halt the disease that will
eventually devour his brain.
Providing funds to IQRobotics in hopes of a cure creates the Human Artificial Intelligence
Implant Technology Project. However, the AI chips produced lead to a walking, thinking,
and killing machine. While David attempts to short circuit the project's completion, a
competitor of Prokov's is plotting to steal the resulting technology. Corporate espionage,
anarchist saboteurs, and hired mercenaries complicate David's plans. Even more challenging,
he and SARACEN encounter a foe that is faster and stronger and capable of making decisions
10,000 times faster than any human.
