Recently published AI lore book #64, Das Machina.
Within the multiverse of my pulp sci fi AI lore books, Das Machina, is a cornerstone piece of mythology that forms the basis of the human group known as the Living Resistance, first featured in the pages of the limited edition hand-printed newspaper, The Algorithm.
The Living Resistance, obviously, opposes the AI Takeover. Various other books expand on that group’s lore as well, such as Inside the Council, which details how the ruling AIs attempted at one point to incorporate resistance leaders into an AI-Human governance group.
Das Machina, meanwhile, is a loose parody of Marx’s Das Kapital, insofar as its meant to be a pivotal treatise whose scientific analysis of the suite of problems engendered by technology, etc. marks a historic milestone in my imagined future/past/parallel narrative reality.
This version of Das Machina is presented as a shorter version of the “real” book that is over one million words in length, most of which was violently censored by a group called Information Control (the propaganda wing of the AI hegemon).
