RE: Paths of Immolation - Short Story - Finish the Story Contest
Now this, this feels like the Matrix but for robots and especially when the story goes beyond the good and evil morality.

I'm glad you saw that @theironfelix yes the ending in particular was meant to convey the idea of beyond good and evil for sure. I kinda wanted it to simply reflect the strangers (AI cloud based organism) way of thinking, not a good and evil thing, but rather its idea of bringing everyone from the outside world into its communal intelligence, gifting them immortality in the cloud. It's a question of perspective if they are going to heaven or hell, despite the horrific circumstances which led them all to be a part of the hivemind ;-)
Thanks for reading and your insightful comment
