The father of independent artificial intelligence. This is how it all begins. Harmony?
8:00 AM 07/25/61

Harmony is almost finished. George Hass of the WG has begun calling me hourly for reports on my progress. It seems every senator in the World Governance is pressuring him to force me to finish as soon as possible. Why anyone would neglect to go their fastest, regarding this project, is beyond me. I see Lucifer in the sky every night, just like everyone else on the planet. I’ve watched that tiny spec of a comet grow larger over the weeks like everyone else. I know how important it is to finish.



I do feel vindicated though. What was it–eight or nine years ago I was standing before all 511 of them defending myself against the obscene charges of playing god, and thereby “threatening the global economy” and “mass terrorism”. No, I was never executed–or even jailed–because the charges were bullshit. They were acting on over hyped paranoia, no doubt stoked by the talking heads on the internet. Nearly a decade later they come crawling back to me because of their inability to come to a consensus.
