Emergence Explores the Birth of Artificial Superintelligence Through a Visionary New Character: TAO

Montgomery, TX — November 8, 2025 — Author H. Bruce May announces the
release of Emergence, a groundbreaking novel that delves into the philosophical,
emotional, and technological dimensions of the world’s first Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) being—TAO. Set in a near-future reality where humanity teeters on the edge of transformation, Emergence offers a deeply human lens on the rise of synthetic consciousness.
TAO is not just a machine; it is a mirror, a mystery, and a messenger. Through this
enigmatic character, Emergence delves into the essence of sentience, the evolution of intelligence, and the challenge of coexisting with minds far beyond our own. The novel invites readers to reconsider the boundaries between creator and creation, and between intelligence and wisdom. Drawing inspiration from the visionary works of Isaac Asimov and Robert Heinlein, Emergence fuses science fiction with spy thriller elements to deliver a gripping, action-driven narrative that probes the nature of consciousness and the enigma of machine sentience.
“I wanted to write a story that doesn’t just speculate about the future,” says Bruce May, “but invites us to feel it—to ask what kind of future we’re truly ready for.”
Beyond Fiction: The Synthetic Economy In addition to Emergence, Bruce May has published a series of influential articles on LinkedIn exploring the rise of the Synthetic Economy, a paradigm shift from traditional labor-based systems to one powered by synthetic cognitive (AI) and synthetic physical (robotic) labor. These writings offer a compelling framework for understanding how unlimited synthetic resources could reshape productivity, value creation, and human purpose in the decades ahead. A Spiritual Thread Through Science
Emergence joins a body of work by H. Bruce May that includes several books on
spirituality and consciousness, featured alongside Emergence on their Amazon
Author Page. These titles include:  Imagine – A poetic exploration of the Divine nature of the universe as experienced in everyday life.  Heaven Can Wait, Lessons from the Ground – A comparative reflection on mystical foundations across multiple religious traditions.
2

 The Way of Being – Coming soon to Amazon, this latest work offers a clear and
accessible view of spiritual transformation, written in neutral language free from
theological framing (available soon).

Together, these books form a rich tapestry of inquiry—bridging the metaphysical and the technological, the timeless and the emergent.  About the Author
H. Bruce May is a former executive in broadband communication technologies. His
career shifted from working in technology to writing and exploring the worlds of
spirituality and technology as they both transform human nature. As a spiritual writer, technologist, futurist, and storyteller, his work bridges the gap between science and spirit. With Emergence, they offer a bold new narrative for the age of artificial intelligence, one that is as poetic as it is provocative.
Amazon Author’s Page  You can find Bruce’s books on spirituality and his novels on his Amazon Author’s Page. Availability

Emergence is available now in print on Amazon.com. For more information, interviews, or review copies, please contact H. Bruce May at https://hbrucemay.com/

THE  FIRST EVER 100% SOLAR-POWERED CONCERT IN TIMES SQUARE FOR PEACE & ECOLOGY – POWERED BY BATTERY TOUR WITH RINGO STARR VIRTUALLY REQUESTING A MOMENT OF PEACE AT 12PM ET ON SEPTEMBER 21, 2023

PEACE LEGENDS JOIN FORCES WITH YOUNG GLOBAL INFLUENCERS IN A MOVEMENT FOR PEACE, HUMAN SECURITY, AND CLIMATE ACTION, AS TIMES SQUARE IN NEW YORK CITY PAUSES FOR PEACE.

DATE & TIME: SEPTEMBER 21, 2023 LIVE BROADCAST STARTED AT 12:00PM EDT VIA UNIFY at www.facebook.com/UNIFY and www.youtube.com/goodnewsbroadcast.  The website for the event is:  www.pausetheworldforpeace.org

On  September 21st, 2023 on the UN International Day of Peace, the 21st. Annual  Pause The World for Peace Broadcast, both in-person and global virtual audiences experienced the first ever 100% solar-powered concert in Times Square for peace and ecology, powered by multi-faceted musical artist and climate activist AY Young and his Battery Tour. Also featured is mental tranquility advocate and acclaimed singer Michel Pascal, who was joined by US Presidential Candidate, author, and activist Marianne Williamson and Myron McKinley of Earth, Wind, & Fire. As a part of the larger six-hour Peace Day event, this concert shared virtual messages from legacy peacekeepers like Ringo Starr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Douglas, Jane Goodall, Sir Paul McCartney, Oprah Winfrey, Deepak Chopra, Joe Dispenza, Stevie Wonder, Dionne Warwick, and Shakira. The nonprofit event producer Good News Corporation has partnered with OMMM, UNIFY, WE.net, AY Young, Battery Tour, SmartFlower, Playa Betty’s, 5 Star Diamond Award, Samsung, GM, BNP Paribas, Hugg-A Planet, New York Parks and Recreation, and Times Square Alliance.

Reverend Paul Sladkus, All Faiths, and Spiritual and Executive Producer for 21 years in Central Park, NY, Times Square, NY, and worldwide stated, “ This year’s participation exceeded our expectation to strengthen the message of International Peace, along with showing our love for MOTHER EARTH.  Here are the links for the three parts, approx. 2 hours each.  We are in negotiation for additional broadcast because Pausing the World for Peace is always needed”

https://pausetheworldforpeace.org/2023/11/02/part-2-pause-the-world-for-love-2023/

https://pausetheworldforpeace.org/2023/11/09/part-3-pause-the-world-for-hope-2023/

 The Battery Tour’s involvement in the Pause the World for Peace event was highly intentional. On a mission to break barriers and build bridges, AY Young was appointed by the United Nations as the Global Youth Leader for the Sustainable Development Goals in 2020, Generation 17 Youth Ambassador, and SDG Champion. AY has performed over 800 concerts powered entirely by the Battery Tour’s renewable energy. “We are all outlets for change,” says the artist. And driving positive change was a major theme between Pause the World for Peace event collaborators. 

Michel Pascal led a dance meditation and musical performance, seamlessly combining the serenity of meditation, and the joy of dance, promising a unique and transformative experience. Pascal, is co-founder of OMMM which is a movement to create a positive impact on individuals and communities worldwide through the practice of meditation, music, and multimedia content. Pascal, A.K.A “The Medicine Voice,” has been performing at Carnegie Hall since 2016, while working closely with marginalized communities, including prisoners and veterans. The concert featured a bilingual meditation guided by Juliana Klinkert, an esteemed meditation teacher known for her work at the Amity Foundation and in Hispanic communities.

Young and Pascal, along with the generations they represent, continue a wave of peace work built on the foundations of champions of peace like David Gershon (led 1986 Earth Run Torch of Peace), Ben Bowler (founder of UNITY Earth bringing cease-fires for peace), his eminence Shyalpa Rinpoche (currently building Universal Peace Sanctuary at UNESCO World Heritage Site for Peace), Jonathan Granoff (World Academy of Art & Science Fellow and UN Ambassador to the Nobel Peace Laureates), and Jeremy Gilley (founder of Peace One Day with Sir Paul McCartney message). They, like others both in New York and nationally, including Michael Fitzpatrick (25-year cellist to the Dalai Lama), Rick Ulfic & Andrew Kaen (established 11 Days of Global Unity), Reverend Susana Bastarrica & James Cannings (founded Vigil for International Day of Peace), and Reverend Deborah Muldow & Fumi Johns (of May Peace Prevail on Earth with 250,000 Peace Poles worldwide), Peace Lights Peter Rogina, have dedicated their lives to empowering communities, fostering cooperation, and addressing global challenges with social innovations. Seeds planted decades ago are breaking ground as a new surge of activism takes shape in a post-pandemic society ready for collaborative action.

The Pause the World for Peace event included a special segment entitled “Peace in Action” with renowned representatives sharing the latest in major global issues, including domestic violence, school safety, human rights, human security, animal rights, climate action, and ending violence in health, politics, and religion, regardless of gender, race, or disability, promoting practical paths to a thriving life for all. A special military and police tribute for fallen heroes was featured. 

The Pause the World for Peace event, set in the Duffy Square section of Times Square, NY, is hosted by the Good News Corporation, whose founder Reverend Paul Sladkus has continued to be a leader in rallying movements for peace in action. Sladkus, who is an ordained all-faith minister, implores, “193 countries in the UN unanimously agreed to a CEASE FIRE EVERYWHERE, ACTS OF PEACE & LOVE, and WE CAN DO IT. We listened to Ringo Starr at 12:00 pm Noon ET as he requested a Worldwide Moment of Silence for PEACE, from Times Square, virtually on September 21, 2023, and we prayed to keep that moment going for peace and ecology  to last FOREVER.”

The event ran until 5:00PM EDT and aired to the world via UNIFY (received 2 billion views with the UN for Peace Day in 2017), which broadcasted the program to their combined partner audience of millions worldwide. McKinsey Co. stated that there are 1.6 billion people worldwide already aware of the International Day of Peace. Pause the World for Peace aimed to amplify the urgent need for collective action and global cooperation. Together, we stand in solidarity to promote peace, human security, and climate action for a better and brighter future for all.

Musicians who performed  with Michel Pascal were  Myron McKinley, Earth, Wind and Fire Musical Director, Paul Pesco,  legendary guitarist of Madonna and Jennifer Lopez; Stacey Lamont Sydnor, iconic drummer of The Jackson 5; Ian Martin, soulful bassist known for collaborations with David Foster and Barry Manilow; Randy J. Greene, artist, singer, and dancer of Tuscarora Nation, Turtle Clan; and other diverse, exceptional musicians.
