Silent
genocide
A book about what will happen to humanity over the next ten years, when artificial intelligence and robots take work away from ninety percent of the planet’s population.
genocide
Work is not just money. It is status, the rhythm of your day, your circle of people and the answer to “who am I”. What remains when it is gone?
About the book
Four parts — from diagnosis to a way out
Diagnosis
Work is not just money. It is status, daily rhythm, your people, and the answer to “who am I”. Why its disappearance is not a long-awaited vacation but a sentence.
Society’s response
How society will meet the change: digital entertainment instead of meaning, the quiet consent of the majority — and demography, which will say everything for us.
The breakdown
Economy, money and power in the decade of transition: who ends up in control, and what happens to those the system declares redundant.
The way out
What can be set against this scenario: a personal strategy, family, work that cannot be taken away — and what is worth starting right now.
The new genocide needs no blood. It is enough to take away a person’s work — and with it meaning, status, the rhythm of the day, the reason to get out of bed.— FROM THE PROLOGUE
The victim writes the verdict together with the executioner. The executioner, for its part, does not object — it has no interests yet. I stress: yet.— FROM THE PROLOGUE
Author
Maxim Dvedenidov
An entrepreneur in science: new medical devices, nanotechnology, graphene at industrial scale. For more than twenty years he has been launching and growing technology ventures. Founder and CEO of Pyrohgen — modular methane-pyrolysis reactors producing clean hydrogen and graphene.
“In the world that is coming, I will be among the ten percent who will be fine. That is exactly why I am writing this book — not out of fear for myself, but out of concern for the other ninety.”
The first part of this book was written during a single flight across the Indian Ocean — together with the AI it is about.

Part IV in practice
The book ends with a question.
The app is an attempt at an answer.
Napoleon III served his guests of honour with aluminium cutlery — it cost more than gold. A century later, aluminium lifted aviation into the sky.
Every era has been defined by its material. Plastic rebuilt everyday life across the planet. Next is graphene: stronger than steel, lighter than paper, it conducts heat better than copper, and in electron mobility it has no equal among known materials. Its era is only beginning, and the seats are not yet taken. Pyrohgen is a space for those who want to become part of it: in their own country, in their own language, with their own hands.
The “Planet” track
For everyone. Help the planet’s ecology: tell people in your own language how methane, instead of being flared, becomes clean hydrogen and graphene. Every extinguished flare means lower greenhouse emissions — and your personal contribution.
The “Ambassador” track
For those ready to work with the material. 257 graphene applications — 257 directions: experiments, pilots, first deployments. Serious contributions stay credited to their author — from priority in your niche to your name in a patent for an invention that does not yet exist.
