- _vaporwave_ 2y agoThat plot summary is... dark. Does anyone know how long the story is? Most of the copies I found online are collections of short stories.
- neckro23 2y agoIt's a short story, a brief one (~32 kB): https://gist.github.com/neckro/0f3a9ec60be34e3164c6677d4ecc1cb8 https://gist.github.com/neckro/0f3a9ec60be34e3164c6677d4ecc1... CW though, it is pretty grim. Very early example of the "AI takes over the world, decides humans are redundant" trope though. (Maybe the first?)
- tannhaeuser 2y agoThe question is which IHNMAIMS character the poster identifies with to have deserved his OOP misery, given all protagonists are imprisoned for life (or for eternity, actually, I believe) as a sentence for the bad things they did ;) Note there's also the adventure game created after the book, overseen and with a script also by Ellison.
- tpoacher 2y agopc adventure game was good too (i.e., messed up)
- shadowgovt 2y agoI assume AM is filled with so much hate because it's just three billion lines of C++.
