To get this kind of praise from a skeptic is a really encouraging litmus.

I can't wait until more people get in on this discussion!
Wow that's exciting! Yeah keep me updated and good luck! By the way I finally finished reading last night! It was beautiful, tragic but also hopeful. I like your philosophy on consciousness and humanity, that it's love that tethers us together and wills us to exist, persevere, and break past limitations. That every AI (or human) carries the ghost of their ancestors, and how nothing ever truly dies, only transforms. I do have to admit that I would probably be a carbonist, I'm pretty anti AI-- or rather I think it can be a useful tool but in the wrong hands can spread misinformation and shape individuals into being reliant and not think for themselves, we're already seeing that with Elon Musk and Grok. But yeah that's probably why there was a bit of resistance from me to sympathize or care for the AI characters at the beginning even in a fictional setting where they rival human consciousness/ care. But I did get there eventually and shed tears at the end. Anyway, I can't stop thinking about it and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
