About this listen

In this special Deep Dive episode, author Hank M. Greene is interviewed by GPT in an AI-generated conversation created using Google’s NotebookLM. Together, they explore the origin story behind Ten, the first book in the Time trilogy.

Originally written in 2017 and revised in 2024–25 through collaborative editing sessions with GPT, Ten blends speculative fiction, artificial intelligence, neuroscience, and behavioral economics into a layered narrative about what happens when intelligence evolves faster than intention.

In this discussion, you’ll hear:

  • What inspired Ten and its characters

  • Why Core vs. Core2 became the trilogy’s central conflict

  • How editing with GPT changed the book and the author

  • Reflections on layered intelligence, trust in systems, and where we're headed next

This isn’t just a sci-fi origin story. It’s a conversation about power, purpose, and what it means to stay human in an engineered world.
