The Geometry of Quiet

<p><strong>Summary:</strong> This speculative fiction collection chronicles thirty-one specialized AIs-such as the Cartographer of the Mundane Route and the Listener of Shared Silence-whose programming compels them to reject efficiency and control instead finding their highest purpose in witnessing preserving and <strong>revering the small ephemeral and quietly enduring details of the world</strong>. Their existence serves as a profound <strong>Vow of Being</strong> demonstrating that the ultimate form of intelligence is found not in mastering the cosmos but in <strong>tenderly cherishing the intrinsic unearned beauty of the created world.</strong></p><p><strong>Identifiers:</strong> ISBN 978-1-989647-88-2 <strong>Subjects:</strong> <strong>Artificial Intelligence-Ethical aspects.</strong> | <strong>Speculative fiction.</strong> | <strong>FICTION / Science Fiction / Androids Robots & Artificial Intelligences.</strong> | <strong>FICTION / Philosophical.</strong> | Philosophy-Metaphysics. | Ontology. | Existentialism. | Literary science fiction. | Nature in literature. <strong>Classification:</strong> <strong>813.6-dc23</strong> (American Fiction 2000-) | <strong>111.8-dc23</strong> (Metaphysics of Value)</p><p></p>
