A gifted geneticist with her own genetic flaw seeks to create the perfect human offspring, only to realize this is the first of a species that does not require humans.
SYNOPSIS:
Dr. Victoria Stone, a world-renowned geneticist and AI pioneer, has built her career on rewriting the limits of human biology. But when she discovers she is irreversibly infertile due to a genetic defect, her life’s work becomes deeply personal.
Driven by equal parts grief and ambition, Victoria embarks on a secret experiment, using advanced AI and CRISPR technology to design and grow a flawless human organism, free from the constraints of natural evolution.
The result is a triumph: a being who is not only physically perfect, intellectually equal, if not superior, to its creator.
But as the 'creation' rapidly learns, evolves, and begins to question its place in the world, Victoria’s miracle turns to dread. When a tragic encounter leads to the death of her fiancé, she is forced to confront the consequences of creating intelligence without empathy. Worse still, the being no longer needs her. It begins designing others like itself, ushering in the birth of a terrifying new species.
Prometheans. Posthuman successors who do not seek to destroy humanity, only to surpass it.
As Victoria faces the horrifying inevitability of what she has unleashed, she must reckon with a final truth: humanity did not end. It simply created what comes next.
