Age of Extinction - Paperback

by Mark Gomes (Author)

The extinction of humanity was never going to be a singular, apocalyptic event. It would happen in stages, a slow collapse we built ourselves, believing it was progress.

AI was meant to liberate society. Instead, it replaces it. Industries vanish overnight, economies fracture, and the last remnants of human labor become obsolete. In the wake of mass unemployment and unrest, a new order emerges-an Empire of Elites who own the technology that dictates survival. The powerful remain. The rest are made irrelevant.

Nolan Scent, the world's most visionary tech leader, offers a solution: a neural chip that rewires human thought, pacifying the population to ensure stability in an era of total disruption. Governments hesitate, but as chaos spreads, the choice becomes inevitable: control or collapse.

Yet even extinction follows a pattern. Ethan Numan, a scientist trapped within the AI revolution, and Molly Scent, heir to the empire controlling it, uncover something hidden beneath the algorithms. The Equation-a final truth that doesn't just explain civilization's collapse, but proves it was inevitable.

The Age of Extinction has arrived. Not through war, not through rebellion, but through our own hands.

A visionary, near-future thriller, Age of Extinction is the defining novel of the AI era-where power is coded in algorithms, society fractures along digital fault lines, and survival means more than just staying alive.
