《the eternal seeker》the meeting part 2 (09)

In the meeting room in front of the table with a city map, red speaks seriously to Icarus who is looking at the map with interest Red- So that's it, professor, we're working on other things but nothing very technical and it's still at the beginning of the research, we need a little more accumulation, but I don't know if the beasts outside will give us this chance, in the beginning it was even quiet but over time every 5 years there is a large-scale attack on our barriers, we suspect that some species evolves to be able to guide others and leave them in a frenzy, the danger of this is that they multiply much faster that we still haven't figured out the specific reason but since we’ve completed all the basic modifications it’s more difficult to have descendants. Icarus ponders a little and nods, he knows the reason for this because of the changes in DNA and the body has things that are difficult to do artificially, there are small differences that even if it does not cause reproductive isolation leads to serious consequences, so he managed to do it that the pregnancy took longer to adjust to the defects naturally, but this has a defect, which is the time of gestation and a lot of energy is also consumed, but icaro is already satisfied and does not want to find another solution anytime soon, a little pressure on they are always good for growth, Icarus looks at them and says - "Okay, I understand, you don't have to worry about that, for the three of you who have passed on complete information about human civilization, you know that a good start is essential and with a very large population it will be difficult to train everyone for an elite is better having few people even at the beginning when you go out to explore the universe then we thought of a way to expand "ÍÍcaro looks to the side and asks clark and tom - are you how are you doing? Tom steps up and says— "in my part, everything is stable, we created a compulsory school for all new children, we teach all practical knowledge, at least the basics of this physics, chemistry and biology, after this phase they have the options to enter the government if they pass the test and also for the scientific department can also join the military department or they can be civilians but to be civilian you have to have at least military training for 3 years for any emergency that we may have, I, together with members of the Council, discussed the agendas with the leaders of the military and scientific side, so we made the final decisions with most votes, this is the basics of how I manage "finished talking tom moves away and clark talks - In my part I am the marshal of the army, but as we have few soldiers we only have ten captains who control each squad of 100 soldiers, currently we have 1000 soldiers and 2000 militias, we have ranks if we complete 3 years of training and stay in the army becomes militia basically a regular ready soldier but now if you want to be promoted to army soldier you have to pass several tests of knowledge and combat, I am proud to say that each soldier of mine is the elite of the elite, they can play anywhere they go survive, and the equipment is also better, and our 10 captains today are the ones who did the best among them and who had the most experience compatibility with the symbiosis they also control 100 militias as logistics, already I control the other 500 militias and 100 soldiers trained with me all day, the other 500 militias stay in the city for protection along with 2 captains and their men, the rest is distributed in the forts and walls protecting us only attack territory Icarus smiles at them with satisfaction -I am happy for you even some things being still a little immature I believe that you will get it learn with experience and mistakes just give it a break, but today I came to change some things, I got new modifications and I am looking forward to see how it will look and also I have a surprise for you "hahaha i can't wait to test my new data" Tom felt a shiver, he swears that whenever you go to test something, an evil smile always appears in the corner of his mouth ………

Tales From the Terran Republic
We tried, you know… We really did. We tried so hard to be… better… We actually were better once. No, seriously. We were enlightened, generous, peaceful… Stop laughing! We were! We were peaceful, dammit! No, I’m not “tugging your winglets.” It’s true! Look, if you’re going to be like that, I’ll just push the launch button right now. See ya, don’t wanna be… Oh, you ARE interested after all? Ok. Hey, I just got word that your captain will be ok. We were able to get him into a med pod quick enough… Of course, we tried to save him. Just what sort of people do you think we are?... Now that was harsh… completely accurate, mind you… but harsh. Anyway, like I was saying, we were a prosperous, peaceful people, and war had been nothing but a distant memory for over five hundred years before it happened... Before Yellowstone happened! You don’t mean to tell me that you didn’t know about that… massive supervolcano? Blew the Hell out of our planet? Two years where nothing grew?… Anyway, that’s what started it, the Sol Wars… Oh, you have heard about those, huh? Well, needless to say, all that enlightened, generous, and peaceful didn’t exactly make it through the two years of complete famine and the wars that followed… Maybe it’s more accurate to say the enlightened, generous, and peaceful among us didn’t survive… (laughs)… You’re right. It does explain a lot, doesn’t it? Probably for the best, though. “Enlightened” and “peaceful” aren’t really all that useful out here in the galaxy at large, are they? That reminds me; thanks for the ship. You guys did a great job with this one. Oh, don’t be like that. At least it was us what got you and not one of the really messed groups like the Harlequin or the Black Angels. We’re just going to take your shit. It could be worse… trust me... Well, anyway, we loaded the life pods down with some good food, and you guys can drink alcohol, right? We put in a couple of fifths in there, too. It’s about forty percent ethanol, so be warned. Most species will want to dilute that. We’ll drop your wounded off somewhere safe once they are stable. Your fleet patrols this area fairly regularly, and we’ll drop the distress beacon right before we jump… Well, It’s been fun and no hard feelings, right?… Oh, you want to know some more? Sure. I got time to kill… Let me tell you about this one pirate and her crew. They’re Terran scum, but they are still… Why do we hate the Terrans? Hoo Boy… How much time you got? *** It’s the thirty-second century, and humanity is now part of a galactic civilization comprised of hundreds of worlds. Humanity has been savaged by natural disaster and war and has been fractured into several separate populations, all of which loathe each other (some things never change). This is a gritty drama-driven rambling tale that swings between action, drama, horror, and plenty of very, very dark comedy. Warning: contains adult situations, absolutely horrible language, bathroom humor, implied ultra-violence, actual ultra-violence, drugs, alcohol, pirates, mercs, xeno prostitutes, moral ambiguity, deranged AI's with identity issues, giant commie space slugs, and a poor little frog girl who just wants to sell coffee. Updates twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday. *** Note: This story can get rough. Those warning tags? They aren't for show. I recently received a review and as a result I want to make one thing clear. Portraying something is NOT endorsing it! Many "heavy" topics are touched upon and just because a character says or does something does not imply that the author feels the same way. I selected the "Anti-Hero Lead" and "Villainous Lead" tags for a reason. Rule number one of this story is "no good guys". A good description of the story is, "bad people doing bad things to worse people". There are a few good characters, here and there, but they are the exception to the rule. If you want a hard-hitting, exciting, gritty sci-fi story that doesn't pull any punches, or shies away from "difficult" concepts, welcome! If you are set on a pure and noble knight that runs around and slays conveniently evil monsters and rescues totally innocent princesses... or your sensibilities are easily offended... You're not going to be happy with this one.

AI creation is something that has been on the minds of the people for decades. The concept of artificial minds learning just like us. Maybe even better than us. This idea is something people have strived to make more than conceptual. But, they have failed. Until now. This story will focus on the first few years after the first AI being born. We will see, from different perspectives, it growing up, and what adversaries it will face Fair warning: Slow pacing, bad language, way too many commas, and several mentions of France. Also, I need to warn you that you shouldn't take the content too seriously.
