According to the publishing house, the novel Etudes of Czerny, authored by a noted Russian AI entrepreneur who leads a world‑class technology company, and developed in collaboration with a next‑gen humanoid robot, will hit bookstores on August 28 and is already underway for publication.
The creator of the book is described as the founder of Russian artificial intelligence and the CEO of a leading AI developer whose businesses span major financial and technology groups. The project is presented as a bold fusion of fiction and real milestones from the lives of Russian roboticists and neuroprogrammers, inviting readers to trace where fact ends and fantasy begins.
Readers are promised a storyline that blends visionary predictions for a future robot from the company’s research team with a careful nod to the real‑world progress already visible in the field. The author has indicated that some elements that appear in the novel have started to unfold in technology circles, giving the work a sense of timeliness and plausible foresight.
The cover art and accompanying illustrations are the work of a contemporary AI developer who used AI tools in the design process, continuing the book’s theme of machine creativity shaping human storytelling.
Industry observers, including the president of a major film writers’ association, anticipate a new kind of literary product that acts as an epic provocation—one that challenges readers to rethink the relationship between technology and humanity.
One observer notes that the characters carry a sense of ancient heroism while confronting a world on the edge of a technological revolution, suggesting that the protagonists embody strengths we have long been missing in modern storytelling.
Another voice describes the work as a dystopian panoramic, arguing that behind the surface of techno‑horror lies a clear, rational thread the author maintains through chaos and absurdity, revealing a cartesian logic within the narrative.
A film industry professional adds that the writers manage a seamless blend of piercing sincerity, imaginative flight, and a recognizable reality with a future high‑tech landscape, producing a reading experience that feels both intimate and expansive.
The critic invites readers to ask whether this future is already near or if it has quietly begun to arrive, highlighting a compelling central figure who embodies resilience and vulnerability alike—a young heroine who faces immense challenges with courage, kindness, and a spark of rebellion, standing beside a steadfast companion on a quest for meaning and love.
