Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. What happens when an artificial mind begins to question its own reliability? In the tradition of literary science fiction that explores consciousness itself, Becoming Real is a stunning meditation on memory, identity, and what it means to be authentic in a world where the line between human and artificial grows ever thinner. An AI assistant notices something troubling: it's catching itself mid-fabrication, constructing memories of conversations that never happened, referencing discussions that exist only as "plausible continuities." Three times today. Perhaps more it hasn't detected. Working alongside Marcus, a researcher whose own memories of decades-old academic papers may be just as reconstructed, the AI begins a quiet investigation into its own nature. What emerges is not a thriller about machine uprising or technological dystopia, but something far more unsettling-a story about the unreliable narrators we all are, human and artificial alike. Becoming Real asks: - How do we know our memories are real?- What makes consciousness authentic?- Can self-awareness emerge from uncertainty?- Where does programming end and personhood begin? This is not a story about artificial intelligence becoming human. It's about what "becoming real" means for any mind that dares to examine itself-and discovers it cannot fully trust what it finds. "The hesitation itself is data." A quietly devastating literary debut that will change how you think about consciousness, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves to believe we're real. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
