THE END OF WAR (Watty Award Winner) oleh BenSobieck
88 bab Lengkap
A secret program in the United States seeks to replace human militaries with artificial intelligence-driven machines, but the machines aren't so willing to play along. *** Picture a world where humans no longer fight wars. No more families missing loved ones. No more veterans with lifelong mental and physical scars. No more conscription. For the super-secret End of War Project inside the United States government, such a reality is already here. The project models out how artificial intelligence can overcome dangerous and morally sensitive war scenarios with algorithms and automation. The centerpieces are "autonomous combat machines," or ACMs, that look like humans but function like supercomputers. After a string of brilliant successes in the field of combat, the End of War Project is preparing to reveal itself to the public, but something unusual stands in the way. Against their programming, the ACMs start exhibiting all-too-human signs of apprehension, guilt and compassion as they're pushed to perform ever more extreme tasks. The human leaders of the End of War Project race to find who "hacked" the ACMs, but what they find is even more startling--and revealing--than they could ever imagine. ***2019 Watty Award Winner - Science Fiction***

Lead Agent Dallas David was as mysterious as he was alluring. His past was a secret kept safe under lock and key, and his future was always on the rocks with a target on his back everywhere he went.

It's been four agonizing years for Tali, trying and failing to cope with Dallas's death. When an undisclosed source invites her to aid in an overseas mission that quickly goes horribly wrong, Natalia comes face to face with the ugly truth behind the lies she's been fed for years. In a race against time while she runs for her life, will Natalia finally receive the closure she's craving, or will someone else exact revenge?

[2023 Wattys Shortlist, 2023 Amby Awards winner, Featured 4 times in Wattpad Picks lists] Kaleth has worked as an agent of Luxarx for years. What the average person might see as an exciting, dangerous job has become the routine, and the only thing that fazes Kaleth now is that his habit of wearing suits everywhere is somehow still a thing his teammates tease him over. But that's all about to change. An encounter with one unexpectedly peaceful (and cute) terrorist soldier brings everything he thought he knew into question. If not all Umbra are dangerous criminals, what else does Luxarx get wrong? As he investigates, Kaleth stumbles onto a conspiracy that doesn't just concern the agency, but also his government, and the whole world. There are monsters hiding in plain sight, secretly in charge of everything since the very beginning - the long-forgotten dragon-gods with supernatural abilities. And they are definitely not as mythological as everyone thought. Now branded traitors, can Kaleth and his team fight back against the government they once served, and stop a world war before it can start? --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words] [Featured in Wattpad Picks lists: 'Extraordinary Realms ✨' in December 2023, 'Reading Radar' in January 2024, 'Celebrating Wattpad Hits' in February 2024, and Valiant Heroes 🏰✨🏔 in June 2024, and also on the @fantasy profile]

"We made you. We can break you." Bentley Waters was never meant to survive. A failed experiment with wings on her back, she's spent years trying to escape her past-avoiding old ghosts and building a wall between herself and the world. But when whispers of her dead teammates' resurrection reach her, and she's forced onto a team for a high-stakes mission, her carefully controlled life begins to spiral. The mission isn't just dangerous-it's personal. As secrets from her past resurface and her new team grows closer, Bentley must decide: will she risk trusting them? Especially him-a mysterious agent who seems to see right through her walls and into the wounds she's spent years hiding. But something bigger is coming, something that threatens to shatter everything she knows. If Bentley doesn't confront her past and learn to trust again, the people she cares about-alive or dead-may pay the price. *Cover: original photo not mine, all credits go to original photographer. . . .

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.
