Artificial Intelligencia

Richard A. Clarke

Our lives are more controlled by computers and algorithms than we understand, but who controls the computers? Artificial Intelligencia steps behind the veil into the world of hackers, intelligence agents, surveillance systems, quantum computing, and deadly international competition.

A junior Chinese police detective stumbles onto a global plot that has control of camera and computer systems tracking billions of humans, including people who seem to exist only in cyberspace. He created the world's most advanced surveillance system and now an even more powerful program is after him.

Ranging from inside the highest offices in China to the halls of Washington's security establishment and the cutting-edge labs of Canada and California, Chief Inspector Wei Bao races to stop an impending disaster. Only two problems: he does not know what the disaster will be or who is going to perpetrate it.

Praise for this book

"Former U.S. counterterrorism official Clarke's expertise in cybercrime and AI lend the disturbing plot plausibility. Mark Alpert fans will be engrossed."

--Publisher's Weekly


Praise for Richard A. Clarke:


"In the battle raging between offense and defense in cyberspace, Clarke and Knake have some important ideas about how we can avoid cyberwar for our country, prevent cybercrime against our companies, and in doing so, reduce resentment, division, and instability at home and abroad."

--Bill Clinton on The Fifth Domain

"What Tom Clancy did for submarines, Richard A. Clarke does for drones. Fascinating and frightening, Sting of the Drone moves as fast as the new kind of warfare that it depicts, with authentic details that only someone with the author's impressive insider credentials could know. This first-rate thriller...a cross between a techno-thriller and a docu-thriller, ought to be required reading for anyone who wants to know the current status of the battle against terrorism."

--David Morrell, bestselling author of First Blood, on Sting of the Drone

"[A] harrowing--and persuasive--picture of the cyberthreat the United States faces today."
--Michiko Kakutani, of The New York Times on Cyber War

"His almost three-decade background in intelligence and counterterrorism serves him exceptionally well when he narrates a hair-raising Special Ops assault."

--The Washington Post on Scorpion's Gate
