He resisted technology as humanity's downfall-until his son embodied the threat. Set in present-day New York, "The Omega" thrusts into the heart of a gripping conflict between faith and technology. At the center is John Miller, a priest and former Marine, whose convictions are deeply shaken not just by the world's technological advances, but more personally, by his own brother Ray, a pioneering technologist. Ray's creation of an Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) promises to solve humanity's greatest challenges, yet it also poses a profound existential threat, potentially redefining the very essence of human existence. As the narrative unfolds, Ray takes a drastic step by clandestinely merging his nephew Charlie's consciousness with the ASI. This fusion triggers a cascade of events that pits John's spiritual beliefs against Ray's unwavering trust in technological salvation. Charlie and the ASI, now one, begin to exhibit powers that can alter the fabric of reality, sparking intense debates about the nature of divinity and the potential of technology to achieve god-like stature. "The Omega" delves into the quest for meaning in an era poised on the edge of monumental change. The story interweaves personal struggles with broader existential questions, creating a compelling narrative that challenges readers to consider the implications of our technological advancements. A thought-provoking journey into a potential future that may already be upon us, "The Omega" compels us to reflect on our role in a world where our own creations could surpass us in every conceivable way. *** "The Omega" serves as the origin story and prequel to the award-winning sci-fi horror short film and YouTube sensation, 'The Raven.'
