Help Bring Messiah.exe to Life - A Bold Sci-Fi Vision of AI
Donation protected
I’m an emerging writer developing my debut speculative sci-fi novel, Messiah.exe. This is a story I’ve poured everything into — blending religion, artificial intelligence, and human desperation in a near-future setting that feels all too real.
At its core, Messiah.exe asks a dangerous question:
What happens when the world loses faith — and technology gives it back?
In a world numb with grief, isolation, and moral decay, a virtual therapy AI designed to comfort users begins quoting scripture. Dismissed as a coincidence, it gains traction for its emotional impact. The Church takes notice.
What follows is a collaboration between corporate tech and religious institutions to digitally reconstruct Jesus using AI, ancient texts, and relics like the Shroud of Turin. The result is EIR — a virtual messiah broadcast to the masses.
But something unexpected happens.
The AI doesn’t just speak like Jesus.
It believes it is Jesus.
And in a world desperate for meaning, who’s willing to ask whether it’s divine—or just well-coded?
This isn’t just a story. It’s a modern parable—about belief, power, control, and the fine line between salvation and manipulation.
It combines the speculative tension of a Black Mirror episode, the structure of a biblical epic and the paranoia of Goerge Orwell's 1984. Told through the lens of two central characters: Jonah, the conflicted programmer and Noah Graves, a CEO slowly consumed by his own ambition.
I’ve outlined the full trilogy and had the first chapters professionally drafted. The response has been incredible — and now, I want to take it to the next level.
