Could forever exist in the seconds before our extinction? A story set in the future where infinite is contained within the simulations of a superintelligent AI commanded to find a solution for an existential threat that is about to wipe out humanity. The year is 2050. Humanity has used advances in artificial intelligence to improve life on earth beyond recognition. However, a singleton machine learning algorithm has calculated that humanity faces certain extinction soon. Imminently, an existential threat will wipe out all intelligent life on earth, but no algorithm can say how or when it is going to happen. There is an equal chance that it could be climate change, an asteroid collision, a solar flare, a deadly virus, alien invasion or perhaps even at the hands of the machine itself. A global, hegemonic technocratic elite determine that for a solution, they must development hyper-realistic simulation technology that will allow them to simulate a multitude of possib...
