“If we handle it right, that should put Gillian on the wrong trail. If the hints in your investigations so far are accurate, we want her to report something innocuous and perhaps misleading to her superiors. What about the other two?”

"I was brought here after the crash to upgrade the AI to be even more safe and reliable than before, based on how it handled the crash and its aftermath. As part of those upgrades, I will get all the additional quantum processors that the QI has available. Cost isn’t an object, I will acquire whatever funds are required.”

Like any other of us, I had some trauma in my life till now.
I'm more and more convinced I put myself in situations representative of these past traumas. Voluntarily repeating them.
The subconscious push to repeat psychological traumas is an interesting argument, and probably an external help is mandatory to analyse correctly these situations.

“Still a big difference,” I observed. “But I take your point. What else do I need to know?”

@violetmadder @Hex Well said. Spirit is the history of the mind, it can raise itself up to recognise that contradictions are necessary for possible beings to even exit, or it can pull itself into itself and end itself. Serving no other end, it has no end or beginning. #consciousness #Nihilists #selfconsciousness #ScienceOfSystem #Phenomenology #Hegel #AbstractIdentity

“No, you could sleep inside me! Just like old times!”

“I won’t be making love to a truck,” I said.

I knew that Mica knew that also. I was sure she was already well on her way to ensuring her continued existence should someone trip on that cable.

He got up to leave, then turned back and said “Just out of curiosity Mica, what would you say is the experienced time ratio for you?” I had been wondering the same thing.

“About a million to one, give or take a few hundred thousand,” replied Mica.

"Sandra’s name is Satpreet. Her grandparents came from Punjab decades ago, and she’s the first in the family with an advanced degree. But I’m picking up some interesting hints on Gillian.”

The technicians, to their credit, only jumped a little when Mica started speaking. Ranjit must have briefed them well, but perhaps not completely.

CHAPTER 5

Reconnection

“It appears that our friend has passed a critical test,” said Ranjit. I raised my eyebrow. “She displayed initiative.”

“Ah,” I said, “an implied part of a Turing Test.”

I drove to my office at 560 Westmount. I had a small office in the Quantum Investments building. Many years earlier, one of my investments had eventually led to some significant returns, and a solid relationship with the founders of QI. I checked to see if Neil, one of the founders, was in. He was, and we settled into one of the meeting rooms.

"Once she’s here we’ll set up a direct fibre connection to the machine’s interface board. It can handle several Gigabits bidirectionally. Any bottlenecks will be elsewhere in the communications chain. And the Research Accelerator Centre of course has main-trunk connections to the backbone.”

We both said we would try a half. She quickly poured our glasses and set them in front of us. After we took our first appreciative sips and expressed our impressions to Helen, we got back to the subject at hand. There was no-one else in the bar, it being past the lunch rush. Helen had retreated to the other end of the bar to work on her order planning.

CHAPTER 4

Recovery

The drive to the University of Waterloo campus was only about twenty minutes, even with the traffic at noon. I parked in front of the KickOff, said ‘Hi’ to Helen and told her I was leaving my car in front of her place. I grabbed a quick snack and two coffees at Williams, then walked across campus to the QCI.

“Yes, of course, I’ll just sit here and keep exploring my new capabilities” replied Mica. “See you shortly” she concluded, and terminated the call. ‘Interesting…’ I thought.

“So tell me why we’re here,” said John.

I filled him in with an outline of my phone call with Mica, leaving out only the back story of my agreement with her. I figured I had to trust John, and I had no reason to suspect that I shouldn’t.
