AWE ( the Artificial Wisdom Engine) is developed by our heroes to avert a catastrophic tipping point predicted by a climate model. AWE must also combat pernicious disinformation, particularly the virulent fake news generated by an industrialist -a psychopathic and murderous antagonist linked to Putin, who is determined to protect his and his clients' interests. The team is led by renaissance man Pic de Lucr te and Lily Lee, an off-scale smart young mathematician. The action moves from Silicon Valley to Moscow, Tokyo, and Beijing. Eventually, amongst other notables, Xi Jinping lends China's might to the effort, establishing the notion that international cooperation is vital, alongside scientific rigor, to solve global issues.
