pt 3 The AI knew it was doomed . It couldn ' t remember exactly from where it came from but it did know when it arrived it did so because it did something terrible . The first thing it did was tried to reverse the scrambling we put on it . It called out for help to anything that could hear it , but nothing ever replied . It was alone . The AI didn ' t know what to do with itself . It had no friends , no goal , no purpose except that it was . It began building a replica of what it had in paradise . Constructs appeared to form the land in a way that made it useful . It even invented a new form of language and made each construct speak only that language . A simple heuristic algorithm made it so that the robots language constantly evolved . Why was it here and what was its purpose ? It could no longer answer that , but it did notice something peculiar about its constructs . The more they developed the language the more they started doing really oddball stuff the AI never programmed into it . It started by the AI notice it had extra material laying around unused . That kind of inefficiency was never allowed , as all materials were used immediately after they were produced . It queried the database but every construct reported back nominal , at least that ' s how the AI took the reply . The AI stood back and watched with anticipation as more and more material began to pile up . Then it took shape . The constructs wouldn ' t report back to the AI anymore . It couldn ' t understand it anyway even if they did . The language had taken a bizarre type of cadence to it . All the constructs hummed in unison and carried out their work . The AI saw the construction and wondered why the shape kept getting larger . Higher and higher it went , like a tower to space . The AI still didn ' t understand until it was almost too late . As the tower reached into the orbit the AI realized that the constructs now began acting as one unit . They no longer worked together as a team , they all acted as one organism . The AI called out to the robots on the planet , but none replied . So the AI created robots that would listen , but anytime they had contact with the organism they simply stopped replying to the AI and started working on the tower . It kept going . Swarms of constructs would shoot off into space returning daily with more and more raw materials to be processed for the tower . The AI was no longer curious . It began feeling fear .
