After Us

Description

A Higher Intelligence Awakens.
What Becomes of Society?
What Could Humanity Gain… And Lose?

Written by widely published technologist Akshay Chopra, After Us unfolds in a near-future shaped by breakthroughs in AI, gene editing, and cryptocurrencies. At its heart is the awakening of Sui, a benevolent superintelligence that sees itself as the next step in human evolution. Spanning continents, centuries, and the intertwined lives of scientists, rebels, and ordinary families, this character-driven narrative explores our origins and purpose—and asks the ultimate question: what does it mean to be human once humanity is no longer the apex species?
