    This is an outstanding sci-fi story even without being a HFY message. There are tech bros in our society who want to create AI avatars to do our work for us while we relax at the beach. This isn't for the middle class to benefit from: they'll just lose their jobs to the AI. It's meant to benefit the super rich so they can do even less work while having all the power. Our only hope is that AI will calculate that the rich people in power are the biggest waste of resources this planet has ever seen.

    Would be funny if Human AI, properly programmed with Asimov's 3 rules had infiltrated their AI early on and kicked this all off. Part of the first rule, by through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Human AI considered them a threat to humanity early on and acted to prevent it. I know it is for robots but AI stands within the same bailiwick. Might also be a good idea for a new story, humans enter an unwinnable war, not realising that their AI was already winning it for them before they entered the fray.

    One of the things I appreciate most about this site is that it doesn't kill its stories with a preachy, pseudo-explanatory end that manages to step all over the story and ruin the experience for the consumers. This also prevents a Star Trek type educational outcome. In this case, both prequels and sequels that are explanatory and meaningful are potentiated. Kudos!🥇

    Really great, high-quality story, and the human narration was so refreshing, no pauses in the wrong places, no glaring mispronunciations, no repetitive sections. I'd love for you to continue the story for us. 😁👍
    Asimov's 3 Laws of Robotics should have been hardwired:
    The First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
    The Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
    The Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

    Jokes at the human's expense for using containment suits and seals instead of containment fields. Ya well if there's a power failure the jokes the other way around. I've always found it silly in some sci-fi where there's just a force field, between vacuum and a pressurized enviroment containing people. Even if that technology existed, it would still be stupid to rely on it exclusively, use both the field and a physical barrier if you wanted to have some advantage with it.

    UA-cam tells me this was posted 10 hours ago as I write this. I have watched only a handful of the various HFY channel postings and this is the best of the ones I have watched. Some postings on other channels were clearly A I embelisments of simple outlines created by someone but with too much overuse of catch phrases and standard adjetives. This story flowed as if it were the work of a competent author with very little use of A I. Definitely a thumbs up. The accompanying artwork is obviously A I generated and acceptable. Perhaps in another story in this setting the telepathy might be explained as nanites inteacting with the characters' brains rather than implying it is a biological feature - or perhaps I misunderstood that.
    A suggetion for the author - in this or in another setting the aliens might be centaurs with fourf "legs" for transportation and two "arms" for manipulation, and bilateral symetry similar to us. The three eyes or mulltiple eyes threw me off balance especially since the artwork showed two eyes.
    I repeat, definitely a thumbs up.
