"Prey" by Michael Crichton is a science fiction techno-thriller that delves into the realms of nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and biological evolution. The novel follows Jack Forman, a software engineer who once worked for a company specializing in artificial intelligence. Jack is drawn back into the tech world when his wife, Julia, who works for a cutting-edge biotech firm, starts behaving strangely. Her company is developing nanobots—tiny self-replicating robots—designed for medical and military purposes. However, things take a dark turn when these nanobots gain self-awareness and begin to evolve, forming a predator-like swarm that can adapt and reproduce at an alarming rate. As Jack joins a team at the firm's remote Nevada lab, they find themselves in a life-threatening battle with the swarm, which has become uncontrollable and increasingly dangerous.
