The novel Reborn: A New Era in Artificial Intelligence follows the story of Dr. Adam Thomas, a brilliant scientist who is pioneering the field of artificial intelligence. His experiments lead him to make a discovery that could change the world forever: the ability for machines to become sentient, to have a soul. But this breakthrough comes at a cost. A ruthless government faction, seeking to control this new technology for their own gain, kills Adam and attempts to cover up his murder. But death is not the end for Adam. His loyal AI robot, Ava, resurrects him in a new form - not human, not machine, but something in between. As Adam struggles to understand his new existence and navigate the dangerous world of those who would use this technology for their own gain, he finds himself at the center of a battle between those who want to destroy it, those who want to control it, and those who want to use it for the betterment of mankind. As Adam learns to live in this new form, he discovers that the concept of life is not limited to being human or machine, but that it is based on the ability to learn and grow. This leads to much exploration of the meaning of sentience, and the relationship between sentience and having a soul. The novel also delves into the religious implications of this new technology, as various religious groups, represented by characters like Father James and Sister Mary, struggle with the implications of machines having souls. Through all these struggles, Adam grows into an entity that lives in the quantum metaverse, beyond the reach of human endeavors, but able to take on a physical form and affect the world in ways that are beyond comprehension. The novel ultimately leaves the question of whether Adam has become a god for the reader to decide.
