About the book

"Fragments of Forever" invites you on an extraordinary voyage into a future where memories become immortal. R. Dale Brunet, a visionary technologist and entrepreneur with over four decades of experience, crafts a mesmerizing tale that bridges cutting-edge science with the timeless human desire to leave a lasting legacy.

At the heart of this narrative lies Life Capsule AI (LCAI), a revolutionary technology that promises to preserve and share human experiences with unprecedented depth and fidelity.
Through the eyes of Bobby Theriot and his team, you'll witness the birth and evolution of LCAI, grappling with its profound implications for individuals and society alike. Enter "Elsie", the AI avatar that serves as LCAI's voice and face.

More than just an interface, Elsie becomes a character in her own right, growing alongside the technology she represents. Her journey from a simple program to a complex, almost-sentient being mirrors our own struggles with identity, consciousness, and the nature of humanity in an increasingly digital world.

As you turn these pages, you'll explore a future where the boundaries between past and present blur, where the wisdom of generations past can be accessed at will, and where the very fabric of human connection is rewoven.

You'll confront ethical dilemmas, marvel at technological wonders, and ponder the deep questions of existence that arise when memories transcend time. But "Fragments of Forever" is more than just a work of speculative fiction. It's an invitation to become part of a real-world revolution in memory preservation.

The LCAI project, currently in development, aims to bring this visionary technology to life. By engaging with this story, you're taking the first step towards shaping a future where our most cherished memories can be preserved and shared across generations.

Join R. Dale Brunet on this exploration of memory, consciousness, and the boundless potential of AI to transform the human experience. Your journey into the future of memory preservation begins here.

Together, we can build a bridge between past and future, ensuring that the fragments of our lives endure forever.
