Hard SiFi Author'Search for Readers

1•dougcol•1h ago
Hi, I’d like to introduce you to my science fiction books but first a little blurb on my background. I’m 75 years old and have spent the majority of my working life working in cyberspace (today’s terminology). My efforts have been concentrated in cybersecurity as an auditor and consultant, now a CEO of my own cybersecurity consultancy. I post numerous articles to LinkedIn on this subject and I’m very concerned with its current direction and ability to service both AI and Quantum computing. This concern has led to my book writing in hard science fiction that is near reality. My series Quantum Worlds consisting of 3 books leads you down a path about cybersecurity’s ability to alter geopolitics. Then leading you on into a world entrenched in the affects of AI, quantum computing and robotics. My series with book one on the cusp of release takes you deep inside the world of robotics coupled with super intelligence that they possess through quantum computing and AI. Initially championed by politicians and scientists as an enhancement to our lifestyle a metamorphosis occurs that leads somewhere else. I have a website in which for you to further explore my works. Please DM me if you wish to pursue me further. Thank you.
