downpunxxFoundation vs Dune
hanslvs Hyperion:
We’re headed for some bleak imperialism nonsense but humanity’s salvation will come from serving AIs we haven’t discovered yet.
Don’t we eventually find out the AIs are oppressing the humans and siphoning off their life-force/brain-power through the use of the portal system and that humanity’s actual salvation comes from deeply believing in the power of love to the point of developing the ability to teleport to beloved places and people?
fiahyeah IIRC that power of love thing was the way our fleshbag brains could deal with the same stuff that the AIs interacted with directly
I really did not like Hyperion as much as I wanted to. Too many r/thisisdeep moments
