UESI - Lost Tales Of Solace 6

Formats: E-Book, Paperback

Humans designed artificial intelligences, but the AIs no longer need us. They are gods, and can create – or even recreate – themselves.

The two most advanced AIs in the universe need to rescue a friend from the clutches of their powerful enemies. Their method is to create millions of offshoots: restricted, cut-down versions of themselves, to fulfil specific tasks such as generating ideas. The offshoots can be deleted once they’ve fulfilled their role.

No one gives a second’s thought to software. It’s just a tool.

Now it’s time to see inside the process.

Lost Tales of Solace are short side-stories set in the Lost Solace universe.

Note: this work is 100% human-created, crafted with love by the author. No generative AI has been used in the writing or editing.

Reviews

“Two of those sims become sentient and develop their own plan to escape so that they aren’t deleted. The twist at the end is excellent. Athene is a twisted genius. The structure is very unusual. As the narrative progresses, they hide their own development as intelligences. It’s all done through dialogue, ASCII drawings and optical illusion images. I found it engaging, and a novel approach to storytelling.”
