In a departure from the dystopian narratives that dominate science fiction, Harald Neslein Sandø's upcoming novel, 'Waking Up', presents a future where artificial intelligence (AI) serves as humanity's greatest ally. The story follows Benjamin Michaels, who awakens from cryonic freezing to discover a world transformed by AI into a sustainable, thriving society. This novel arrives at a time when real-world discussions about AI's potential to either unite or divide humanity are more relevant than ever.
Sandø, an acclaimed filmmaker and author, challenges the conventional portrayal of AI as a threat. Instead, 'Waking Up' introduces a Global AI that collaborates with humanity to eliminate scarcity, exploitation, and environmental destruction. 'AI doesn't have to mean control, surveillance, or job loss—it can mean abundance, freedom, and harmony,' Sandø explains. The novel's release is timely, as advancements in AI technology continue to spark debates about the future of human society.
The e-book version of 'Waking Up' is set for release on May 2, 2025, and is currently available for pre-order.

Sandø's work invites readers to reconsider the potential of AI to foster a future marked by collaboration and innovation, rather than conflict and control.
