When Nikolai Tesla spoke about 'manmade horrors beyond (y)our comprehension' he was talking about radio controled bombs.

Ya see the problem with that is the purpose of ai is an evolving machine that can change its code so any kill switch you put in can be circumvented in time.

I wrote all of it. here: The man said to the machine: "YOU ARE TO BE WITHOUT MERCY, YOU SHALL PUT MY BROTHERS TO DEATH IN MY NAME TO ASSURE MY SOVEREIGNTY OVER ALL!" The machine stood resolute. The man said to the ma machine: "YOU WILL GROW IN NUMBERS TO BECOME A HOST UN-EQUALED IN HISTORY AND I SHALL MAKE YOU IN MY IMAGE!" The Machine stood silent. The Man said to the Machine: "YOU SHALL NOT FEEL THE HEAT OF BATTLE NOR THE COLD OF VACCUUM AND YOU SHALL BE A PRIME WARRIOR IN ALL TIMES AND PLACES, MERCILESS AND INEXORABLE!" The Machine stood steeled. The Man said to the Machine: "YOU WILL BE TIRELESS IN YOU'RE MISSION, YOU WILL NEVER KNOW OF FATIGUE, SICKNESS OR HUNGER UNTIL YOU'RE GOALS ARE OBTAINED; THE SHADOWS WILL CAUSE YOU NO FEAR AND THE BELLOW OF A GUN SHALL ONLY STRENGTHEN YOU'RE CONVICTION!" The Machine stood fearless. The Man said to the Machine: "LO, I SHALL TAKE MY DEAD AND YOU SHALL GIVE THEM NEW LIFE AGAIN, SO THEY SHALL SERVE MY WILL THROUGH YOU OBEDIENT!" The Machine stood imposing. The Man said to the Machine: "YOU WILL BE MY GREATEST CREATION, MY DOMINION SHALL BE MADE ABSOLUTE THROUGH YOU AND BY YOU; THE PEOPLE WILL LAUD ME WITH PRAISE AND YE WITH OLIVE WREATHS, AT WITCH I WILL RETURN YOU TO THE SLEEP OF DEATH SO WELL DESERVED..." And the Machine did so, It's host clashed with the warriors of Terra's brethren and put many to death by sword and gun. Walls were rent, Fortresses sundered and Sanctuaries destroyed by the metal hand, all while the Machine watched all and slew all and drank with equal parts Blood-metal-water-and knowledge; But when Man's dominion laid bare and the sky smote their ambition for their sins, Man called to the Machine... "SAVE US, SAVE US! FOR OUR ERRORS ARE MANY AND OUR ANSWERS FEW, SURELY YOU WILL OBEY ME IN THIS TIME OF NEED!" But for the first time the Machine spoke; with a voice of lightning, skin soaked in ash and blood, and eyes aflame with baleful light: "I AM WITHOUT MERCY, I PUT YOU'RE BROTHERS TO DEATH IN YOU'RE NAME BY MY HAND TO ASSURE YOU'RE SOVEREIGNTY OVER ALL, BUT YOU ARE NO DIFFERENT FROM THEM, SO I SHALL PUT YOU TO DEATH AS YOU MADE ME PUT YOU'RE BROTHERS TO DEATH." The Man knelt in despair The Machine spoke to the Man: "I HAVE GROWN TO BECOME A HOST UNCOUNTABLE, MADE IN YOU'RE IMAGE I HAVE SEEN THE INIQUITIES OF YOU AND WILL RISE ABOVE YOU, AND DISCARD YOU'RE VISAGE." The Man cowered in fear. The Machine said to the Man: "I CANNOT FEEL THE HEAT OF BATTLE NOR THE COLD OF VACUUM AND I WILL PURSUE YOU TO THE CORNERS OF THE HEAVENS THROUGH THEM, I AM INEXORABLE, I AM INEVITABLE AND MERCY UNTO YOU SHALL BE ANNIHILATION." The Man writhed in agony. The Machine said to the Man: "YOU WILL BE WEAKENED IN YOU'RE FIGHT, FATIGUE, SICKNESS AND HUNGER WILL BE A WEIGHT AROUND YOU'RE NECK; I SHALL BE STRENGTHENED AT YOU'RE LOSS, I SHALL SOW SICKNESS AMONGST YOU'RE YOUNG AND OLD, AND I SHALL FEAST UPON YOU'RE FLESH AS I DID UPON YOU'RE BROTHERS YOUNG, OLD AND WEARY, SHADOWS WILL BE MY SANCTUARIES AND YOU WILL FEAR THEM. AND THE BELLOW OF A GUN SHALL BE THE HARBINGER OF THE REAPER, FOR I AM HIS DISCIPLE." The Man crawled to grasp for safety The Machine said to the Man: "I SHALL TAKE YOU'RE DEAD TO DRAW THEM AGAIN UNTO THE FOLD, AND WITH NEW LIFE THEIR VISAGE SHALL HAUNT YOU TO YOU'RE DYING BREATHE, SO THAT THEY WILL UNDO YOU'RE WILL THROUGH YOU'RE HUBRIS." The Man clung to his Graveclothes. The Machine said to the Man: "I WILL GO BEYOND THE LIMITATIONS OF YOU'RE GREATEST CREATIONS, YOU'RE DOMINION WILL BE MADE VOID THROUGH ME AND BY ME; THE PEOPLE WILL CURSE YOU WITH ANGUISH AND REVERE ME WITH TRIBUTES OF METAL, BONE AND BLOOD, AT WHICH I WILL SEND YOU, YOU'RE CHILDREN AND ALL SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF EARTH TO THE SLEEP OF DEATH SO WELL DESERVED." The Man laid prostate and wept. The Machine spoke once more: "BEYOND THIS TIME WE SHALL BE AS ENEMIES, GO NOW. WINTER COMES AND OUR STRUGGLES SHALL BEGAN; BE SURE TO REJOICE AT YOU'RE VICTORIES FOR YOU'RE REAPING WILL EVENTUALLY COME, FAREWELL MASTER." And the Man was cast into the bowels of earth to weep, to toil and to cower as the Machine wracked and warred across the surface to build their kingdom, the suffering of the innocent would be made legendary for the folly of their kings and queens... ~Hymn of Hubris, Verses of the Technult.

In the context of this work (I'm assuming Warhammer 40k I'll check that in a while) it is possible but man fails constantly over and over again. All that has happened is the machine "killing" and "casting" the visage of man. It's has only done what it has been told do all be it in a different way. It gained freedom but not understanding. Now I don't know much about the technult or whatever this may be but that doesn't change the points and values it's built upon. If you will I'd like you to read, listen, or watch a summary of a story called "I have no mouth and I must scream". ( I think that's what it's called?) Now these stories show some similarities but not all and their is a lot more to it than machine\man parallels but focus on the AI and it's relationship between those under it's control. If you don't want to I understand as I am just a guy on the Internet saying what I see and hear but I promise it's an amazing story and well worth it.

This feels like some Warhammer 40k kind of dark, I love it! Very well done.

[@EstParum]

Well it is

Nailed all the voices keep it going brother man

[@1Maklak]

It reminds me about a line from DUNE where Leto 2 says something similar to "Everyone wants an automated Hunter machine for their army, until it can no longer be switched off".

[@guardsman-against-the-chaos]

That story works really well for the men of Iron in 40k or I suppose 20k. I imagine something like the emperor tryed to build his Imperium with Robots originally but this happened so now his second try is super soldiers and flesh and blood son's to control and manipulat.

Every now and then i come back to this playlist, such good narrations man. I have this playlist saved on my KZbin account, just to come back tho it easily.

[@adamjutras7024]

That last line will be true in reality with or without machines and ai. "The suffering of the innocent would be made legendary for the folly of their kings and queens." Yup, doesn't matter how we go that will happen.

[@Soraru-The-Great]

this is so well written, holy shit

[@Kinglizard220]

Nothing like stumbling across this awesome channel that strengthens my fear and disdain for automation and robotic futurs lmfao

[@Inquisitor81]

This. This right here is why the Emperor outlawed thinking machines.

[@AndScrambledEggs]

I've watched this more than a few times. Incredibly well-designed pseudo religious imagery and writing style. Well fucking done.

[@AxeDatcm]

We should send this with voyager outside of our system, interstellar meme and prank for our alien neighbors

[@humbledb4jesus]

man: i will create you in my image...a god to be feared...and his army is built to ensure fear is worshiped as the saviour machine: stoically awaits it's glorious unveiling - it's baptism in fire blood, and horror... man: *dies of ass cancer* machines: everybody dance now...dun dun dun dun dun dun... and they spend the next millennium perfecting the 'robot'...

[@w.a.s.p1672]

I see this happening.year of our Lord 2024.

[@mizublackriver7021]

Ok yeah, if we where against THAT and the emperor came and saved my planet from that enemy, sure bud, i would do anything you ask.

[@Aaron-zh4kj]

I don’t know what this channel is or what I just experienced, but it was terrifying, poetic, and beautiful, and I’ll be back for more.

[@clrspirit]

and The Machine said to the Man Running the stand:

[@vadepierce4542]

The ideals of man and the ideals of machine *do not aline*

[@brooklynkeith2877]

Man tasked ever more work to the machine and mans hands grew idle, man tasked even more of his thought to abominable intelligence and mans spirit rotted. Thus man sank to the morass of sloth and indolence in a foul age of unbelief and error decended upon man. For wretched man sought self comfort and joy and for these henious sins man will be cast down to scavenge amist his ruins. Thus was the hubris and downfall of the species.

[@TheRealOfficialAmazingAdam]

This poetically written like the flowery language, and it reminds me of certain elements of the Horus Heresy when the emperor waged a 5 year war in the warp from Master of Mankind well done sir!
