RE: Not The Dinosaurs Again :: Original Short Story
I loved this story. You've hit it out the park with this one! Good plotting and great interpersonal struggle. It puts me in mind of any of a number of Simulation Games. The story really makes me wonder if we'll reach a point where we'll be this person, but it will be immersed in an AI world where the AI is so close to reality that it's able to teach itself upwards to about 99% of self-awareness. I think we're heading there.
Sounds like enough interesting ideas for a story... looking forward to reading that!
Thanks. I have enough on my plate at the moment with the workout story and polishing up one for the mainstream. On top of that I've started to paint some again so maybe my wife and I can start selling our artwork and making some extra money.
It does have some potential for a story, probably a dystopian world-view that has some parallels to why we see children so enamored with SnapChat and Twitter and other mobile device apps that keep them nose-deep in their phone and not in the real world.
