Artificial Artifacts by John Fennec

A visionary debut collection exploring the rise of artificial intelligence and adapted technologies and their impacts on human existence. From a small rural American town subjected to horrors brought by an elaborate deep-fake hoax, to Black Mirror-esque fables about technology dependency, age extension, and psychological invasions, Artificial Artifacts invites readers on a journey where the boundaries between human and machine blur, and the consequences of our creations become chillingly profound. As enigmatic tech mogul Peter Byrell's story unfolds, so does the tapestry of our digital age, leaving us to ponder: in a world where truth is malleable and consciousness is encoded, what does it truly mean to be human?

John Fennec is a debut author and seasoned professional investor, whose insights into technology and life sciences significantly inform his writing. His recent work in artificial intelligence revealed its vast potential as well as haunting implications, inspiring him to fulfil his lifelong dream of authorship. With the support of a family of scientists and colleagues in tech, John crafts stories grounded by scientific realism, which he terms ‘the art of the plausible’. 

Residing in London with his wife and three children, John juggles his professional pursuits with a rewarding family life.
