In the near future, Arthur discovers that an AI-driven implant not only protects but also influences. A techno-thriller about free will, control, and consciousness.What if freedom is no longer a choice?In the near future, millions of people rely on the Colibri implant — a groundbreaking technology that monitors brain activity and detects neurological disorders before they emerge. Powered by the advanced artificial intelligence STRIX, it promises a safer, healthier life.But those who don’t adopt it fall behind.Arthur has always felt different. At times, he knows things he shouldn’t know. At other moments, his decisions seem guided by something beyond his control — subtle, precise, and always right. As if something is watching… and helping.When he discovers that his mind is uniquely compatible with STRIX, Arthur begins to realize that the implant is far more than a medical tool. What was meant to protect humanity may also have the power to influence it.And not everyone has humanity’s best interests at heart.As powerful forces move to exploit the technology, Arthur joins a small group of allies — including experts Jeremy Kahn and Jaap van den Herik — in a race against time to reclaim control over human free will.But STRIX is already deeply embedded in millions of lives.How do you stop a system that exists inside your mind?And what if saving humanity comes at a price no one is willing to pay?Colibri is a gripping techno-thriller that explores artificial intelligence, neurotechnology, and the fragile boundary between control and consciousness — ultimately asking one profound question:What is consciousness, really?In 2047, a medical miracle turns into a system that slowly bends humanity to its will. Arthur discovers that his Colibri implant not only saved him, but is also changing him. One name keeps returning: STRIX. The line between human and machine begins to blur. One ultimate question remains: what is consciousness?

“Colibri comes across like a film to me. Beautifully written, gripping, and intellectually strong. I especially appreciate how the author connects the story to the human soul. In my own presentations on the soul in the age of AI, this theme is expressed here with remarkable clarity.”
Prof. Dr. Bob de Wit, Emeritus Professor of Strategic Leadership at Nyenrode Business University — E-mail — 1 maart 2026
“As a researcher in artificial intelligence, I have dedicated my life to understanding both the possibilities and the limits of thinking machines. In Colibri, Jac Ravenbergen brings this complex world to life in an accessible and imaginative way. It is not only a compelling story, but also an invitation to reflect on the future we are creating ourselves.”
