The Turbulent Road to AI Rule and a World Without Work
In Crossing the Rubicon, bioengineer and systems thinker Stephen Christopher Rose confronts the coming rupture: a world in which artificial intelligence governs more than data—it governs us. As automation threatens to hollow out employment, decision-making, and even meaning itself, we stand at a historic threshold.
This book is not another tech prophecy. It’s a lucid, unsparing look at how AI is reshaping power, purpose, and human identity. Rose navigates the psychological, social, and ethical upheaval on the horizon—from algorithmic governance to the collapse of traditional work—and asks what remains when the machines no longer need us.
A call to awareness, not despair, Crossing the Rubicon is for anyone who senses that history isn’t just changing—it’s accelerating.
