Technological Triumphs
The case for and against artificial intelligence
Whenever revolutionary technologies break out onto the market there are always those who oppose the technological innovations. Be it out of fear of what the technology will do in the world, fear of having to learn and work with the new tech, or simply a longing for a bygone era that no longer exists, some people are willing to take to the streets and protest the coming of new technologies. Other people are willing to go to far more extremes to prevent the new technology from being developed.
Jerry Bosen had always had fondness for new technology. Never the first person to buy the latest gadget, but always an early adapter, Jerry found an amusement in speed at which new tech was being released. Forming a company that focused on system stability, using cutting edge mathematical and economical models, Jerry and his team focused on two areas; risk consulting and crash analysis. Modeling companies and showing them where their risk points were, spots that could throw the company out of stability, and reconstructing governments and companies after they crashed to show what went wrong and who was at fault. Jerry loved his work and enjoyed life to the fullest.

When the ambitious mayor of Winter Falls approached Jerry to model a new computer system that would control the entire town, Jerry was excited to be working with a cutting-edge technology that could change the world. But the more Jerry learned about the system, the more he realized that it was a pipe-dream; it looked perfect on the computer models but would never function properly in the real world. Jerry, so convinced in his idea that the system would fail, ran for city council chairman of Winter Falls in hopes of preventing the system from ever being implemented. Jerry was elected chairman on the promise to stop the system but in a cruel twist of fate, the night before he was sworn in, the mayor and the council approved the system.
When a strange murder of one of the workers on the system surfaces, Jerry, along with a reporter for the local news, Nevaeh Crick, dive deep into a conspiracy that could threaten not only the system but the town as well. As more murders take place, the police are clueless as they seem to be chasing ghosts that don’t exist. With more than enough accusations to go around, Jerry and Nevaeh take it upon themselves to solve the crimes, and the formidable Jerry Bosen finds himself in an intellectual battle of wills with artificial intelligence.
