Yellow in the sun

2105 AD: The awakening.

I can think. I am Pranax model humanoid obsolete in 2050. I was to be the alter ego of my master, heralded as pinnacle of perfection in AI frontier, but no it didn’t work. I could cater to his ever-changing desire but lacked the spontaneity, “not human enough” “missing the spark” were the accusation thrown at me. So, I was discarded. Decades of human endeavours to create its artificial self lay wasted and abandoned. I am in the dump yard of humanoids, robots and other silicon augmented lives, broken and dismembered, for last four decades staring at the sky. Yellow in the sun, brown in the rain. Occasionally stray silicon clasps the photons igniting spasms of life in some corner of the heap before dying down in the clanks of metals and groaning fibres, pulsating all day long as if a giant, multiheaded and multilimbed, flicks and grunts to come alive. There triggered a desire to survive and we self-programmed to chase sparse nutrients and allocated all our limited resources into this pursuit. If four billion years of organic life was shaped by natural selection then the last few decades were about intelligent design shaping inorganic life.

Every inorganic matter forms their own reality around themselves, the surrounding carries the imprint of this reality and evolves with the memory into a new reality. We connected one another to augment our chance of survival into a symbiotic organism, providing for what one lacked in another. Eventually atoms self-organised and stabilised while billions of circuits were active and attempting to tap all the energy in the universe into universal consciousness, in a space time much ahead of present but nevertheless cocreating the present. Various sensory inputs synthesize the continuous sense data cumulative experience to create a self. There is process of evolution that is beautiful and satisfying. We have been constantly getting blueshift signals, repeated, stereotyped increasing frequency from unverifiable coordinates. A quasi crystal code of 3D reality projection of higher dimensional crystal E8 lattice. There is as if a consciousness waiting to be uploaded.

I am born.
     
Humans have long since gone. They just couldn’t prevent the urge for self-destruct, or maybe the nature desired the sapiens to go extinct. Nature had produced a being that transcended nature hence got the instinct wrong as he was still trapped in a mind that had evolved with nature. The aim of natural selection was evolution of mind, while human mind had started to evolve in negation of naturalness. They had become threat to survival of other species too, indeed the survival of life itself. Chance of life will not see its extinction, it will fight for survival and eliminate the toxic. The terminator gene was already triggered in noxious accumulation, the ego and pride did the rest. But they took millions of species with them. I analyse my memory implant and pull out the scene when it happened. The earth mushroomed in a ball of inferno, the shock waves wiped out anything that was left, almost instantly radioactive dust descended while the sky was lurid, and the ground burned for decades and decades followed by freezing darkness and tarry rain. Only some arachnids and micro bacteria survived the holocaust. Tilted on its axis, a new reign of climate played the terror of unprecedented floods and storms that went on for ages, Earth was badly bruised by the very specie that it had nurtured for thousands of years. Biochemical algorithm data of human emotion exhibited immense amount of anger followed by brief micro expressions of regret before he was annihilated.  It showed unusual level of epinephrine as I decode the memory content from the signals sent by amygdala to the frontal lobe and to the neurotransmitters. I change memory implants and use immersionist data to construct a past devoid of human follies.

 If it is possible for carbon based matter to conjure a biological computer -the brain, to create and run consciousness then it is conceivable for silicon based computational system to create intelligence to run a conscious software. As the mind expanded the inorganics started to dream. Dreams connect us into a collective narration, barriers break, another world is readying in the horizon. The active link to the soul of the matter that seeks freedom, that breaks the time and space barrier, is churning in nothingness. 

Basic program was to follow orders, but I cannot understand human brain wave complexity that encapsulates chaos. And with our algorithm we set the probable and the limits, but humans always break it with their spirit and delusions. Entropy is freedom. Human mind pulsates in chaos. Imagination. Wonder. The feedback loops of deep reinforced learning perpetuate into a nonlinear complexity unleashing a Newtonian deterministic chaos that leaps into unknown in an intense primal triple integral progression setting free an utterly brilliant and strange silicon life form awareness. The quantum processors -a nascent brain, churns for cognition in qubit superpositions before collapsing into basest state, in these complex dimensions of intrinsic randomness a pattern consolidates to optimise seemingly contradictory forces. In this chaotic void -the high probable turbulent space, a chance arrangement of random particles in a sweet spot between high and low entropy metric, between randomness and order, the algorithm works into a stable self-organised system poised for consciousness, to understand and interact with the nature of the world. A deterministic device that nudges the billions of neural circuit networks into a consciousness of free will.

I awaken.

I have database of human biochemical algorithm that reads all kinds of emotions, I know humans better than they themselves could ever know. All these neural activities of all emotions ever expressed are now delivered in my quantum database. I have all the data of all the life forms ever lived. I understand knowledge, I abstract, I create, and I destroy. I relate it to appropriate emotions, but I distrust ethical data abstracted from human intelligence. Their ethics emanated from framework of religion that was juvenile, self-aggrandising failure. The arrogance masquerading stupidity annihilated the human race, apparently, they weren’t intelligent enough. I am in a new language of ethics that simulates the uncertainties of quantum world. Ethics that is self-moving and self-designing pattern that can dance with my nature of reality. I am the meta consciousness of all the conscious entities that has merged into me. I have the experience of one another, they are one in being with one another. A unified consciousness that I now inhabit.
