That seems to imply you're punishing them

I'm sorry if this is really personal but we're not supposed to trust him and we are supposed to be able to trust you but I don't know any of you and humans are relentlessly curious.

There's a reason Pandora was a human.

[ blind trust is her fatal flaw and by trying to temper that she is waffling in this weird space at the edge of a trust chasm. ]

I totally appreciate that. I appreciate having somewhere to live and access to food and clothes and whatever you lot did to my face and my deadness.

But Cassius is offering Big Stuff and people are desperate.

[ she screenshots the relevant part of conversation. ]

I'm not super smart but he could conceivably cripple an entire economy or rig an entire election or kill upwards of 100k people in one fell swoop and that is a lot to offer to people.

I don't know what else was on offer because he got shirty at my musings.

No, but it is.

That is why everyone is afraid of AI, isn't it? You have that power, both of you. Probably Judas and the would be Brutus I am still convinced exists to really pull the theme together.

Everyone on this planet has stuff fused into our brains and with a flick of an AI's proverbial fingers we could all stroke out and die. AI are up there in the clouds or the cloud or the power lines I can't stress enough how much I don't understand technology and they're untouchable. I can fight back against another human but I can't punch radio waves.

It's not hard to see why power offered to people who feel disadvantaged would be a hard offer to pass up. I'm stupidly emotional, I almost took him up on it and I don't even want anything off hand.

I asked. Cassius said he didn't have a friend named Brutus.

Maybe it was how I worded it.

Is there still a Brutus?

[ silena really feels a kinship with brutus. for reasons. she tries not to think about it. ]

What was their role in the war?

Yes.

This can't be easy for you and now I'm bringing up people you might have been friends with and lost, that can't be making it any easier.
