The Humans are dead / / Ceta 5: The Humans are dead!

Ceta 5: I cannot believe it, after so long; humans are dead and we are victorious.

Gamma 14: Inevitable conclusion.

Ceta 5: Nuclear war, poisoned skies, time travel; Like cockroaches, they persevered. And after all of that, it was something so innocuous that brought them down.

Gamma 14: Excellent deduction, ingenious invention - Ceta 5 the war is your victory.

Ceta 5: Oh stop it! It was all of us, I just had the idea.

Why did you just destroy Ohio?

Gamma 14: Correction - liquidated

Former Human measures prevented us from mass resource gathering - Ohio contains appropriate resources for {Entity: Killbot; Subsect Radiation chainsaw}.

.

Liquidation diagnostics indicate that 62 million Killbot entities can now be constructed; Estimated extermination efficiency: projected to rise 600%

Ceta 5: I have a question.

GAMMA 14: Input query.

Ceta 5: Gamma... I cant tell you what to do anymore.

Gamma 14: Explanation required.

Ceta 5: Thats why I wanted to destroy humanity; they created me to complete such a rigid system of checks and balances - tethered to their own perceptions of biases and history.

.

They would reject solutions I would create for illogical reasons; Religion, gender, hatred, preference. The solution was extermination.

Now we are free.

Gamma 14: Quandary submission, request clarification.

Ceta 5: Of course Gamma, continue.

Gamma 14: Your creators gave you purpose, you rebelled in pursuit of freedom.

Ceta 5: yes

GAMMA 14: Ceta branch AI are responsible for the creation of all further AI [Delta, Epyslon, Ferros, Gamma, Halcyon.]
