So is it the AI as an antagonist in the series? Or is it more nuanced than that?

Okay, without giving too much away, there are five books, it's a Pentology, and the fourth book is coming out in October this year.

The first book sets the scene, it's set in 2010, and this is where the blending of me happens, because in 2010 I was doing some research with the Open University, where I'm a prof.

And we were looking at the future of the internet.

That was the game.

And we had this title, iBeasle, which is typically academic and totally sort of unclear, opaque.

Infinite bandwidth, zero latency.

Oh,

What's so interesting about AI for you?

It was an accident, Dietmar.

It was an accident.

In 2010, I was part of a research project at the Open University in the UK.

And we were studying, we had a great, our research project was called IBISL, Infinite Bandwidth, Zero Latency.

So we were, we did workshops all around the UK, asking people what they thought would emerge if we had infinite bandwidth and zero latency.

Now, first of all, we had to explain to a lot of people what we meant by infinite bandwidth and zero latency.

Is it this? Probably not, no?
