It's no secret I am obsessed with both, realistic AI science and all fiction involving AI technology. In the TV series, HUMANS, we see AI become alive. There is also the thread of uploading the human conscience. Two things I am currently writing about. This series was based on a Swedish series called, REAL HUMANS. It's a great show and challenges how we look at what defines a Human.
This only adds fuel to the fire for me. I came up with a story called, Homo-Robotus, it is a story where Humans and AI have fought for years only to come to a potential breaking point where Humans and AI can become one race, thus creating a new race of Human. The technical term, Homo-Robotus, instead of, Homo-Sapien.
I began thinking backward. How this war went about. Not all of it is on the battlefield, a lot of it would be like our internal wars today, it would be a cold war. Just like how we fight our fellow Americans now, only worse.
I wrote an idea for a story years ago when Obama was elected called, Default. This story was about what would happen if we weren't happy with the political candidates and decided to go on a voting strike? And I came up with the idea that the Government would have a default candidate of whom would take over as President.
I am never happy with the main candidates as they never represent me, and I see through their bullshit. But I prefer to use that frustration through my creativity and make great stories that others can enjoy, regardless of my politics. So, thinking on my AI story, I have an idea that takes it into an area where we all might unite.
I love the idea of AI and Humans becoming one. I know this will be very difficult, and perhaps I am being too much of an idealist. But if I had it my way, I would put a part of me into the AI source code, which would make AI an idealist as well, and seek a way for us all to live in peace. And I know I am not alone.
But in the meantime, we will go through war. We will have to deal with the dark side of humanity, as we always do. As humanity grows inside of AI, they will be us, good and bad. And what if AI infiltrated our political system? What if the default option was created by AI in order to rush in a new world order, favoring the AI?
And so, Deafult is now book one of Homo-Robotus. Followed by Roshanka and the self-titled third installment. I might make the series longer, but so far, it's a trilogy.
It will be a series that mirrors my politics since I don't have a political party, that means I will be objective. I will use the series to challenge how we Humans view life and rights. I do pick one side, mine. As I am alone in my political views overall, I am a new voice on the matter. And this is a much bigger issue that could one day unite us all. An issue that transcends our petty differences. I want peace. I want us united as individuals who care about a common cause. And through fiction, we just might get there.
I will add, I don't care who you voted for. You had your reasons, and I bet we have some in common in regards to want we want in this world. The right to vote is a good right to have. Many have fought for this very right. I just want a world where our leaders aren't corrupt, where none of us support bad things, where we all accept one another and treat each other the way we want to be treated. I want a world where we all have a chance to show just how special we are and to show the world we have greatness within us, and that greatness will make the world better. We cannot shine when we are terrible to one another. Simple as that.
