Description
Colossus ISBN-13: 9781473228214 ISBN-10: 1473228212 Author: D.F. F Jones Binding: Paperback Publisher: Gateway Published: 2020 Charles Forbin has dedicated the last ten years of his life to the construction of his own supercomputer, Colossus, rejecting romantic and social endeavors in order to create the United States' very first Artificially Intelligent defense system. Colossus is a supercomputer capable of in-taking and analyzing data rapidly, allowing it to make real time decisions about the nation's defense. But Colossus soon exceeds even Forbin's calculated expectations, learning to think independently of the Colossus Programming Office, processing data over one hundred times faster than Forbin and his team had originally anticipated. The President hands off full control of the nation's missiles and other defense protocols to Colossus and announces to the world that he has ensured peace. However, the USSR quickly announces that it has a supercomputer, Guardian, with capabilities similar to that of Colossus. Forbin is concerned when Colossus asks-asks-to communicate with Guardian. The computer he built shouldn't be able to ask at all. I do not need it also, I am willing to post the book for a bit extra and also take Revolut so we do not even have to meet up
