The pocket universe thing is so cool. I have always thought about that being the end goal of an AI, to conquer the universe then to escape this universe and start conquering new universes...... I never thought about an AI creating it's own universes though lol, that's so cool lol.

It’s just part of the defensive membrane that protects the All-Mothers central emitter. It only appears purple because of the blue light emitted by the emitter. Yeah, no, you don’t want to know haha

Creeeepppyyy, I love it! What is all the purple stuff for? And dare I ask what is made from?..

Imagine a completely politically/ideologically indoctrinated individual that also has some dull psychic pressure being put on them at all times by their god figure. This is what an Overfather is. I’ve also described them in another comment like this: If the All-Mother is the Internet and the Emitters are WiFi routers, then the Overfathers are like semi conscious WiFi extenders. The All-Mother is bringing him before her to impose the importance of his mission. Visiting the central emitter for an Overfather is like visiting the holiest of sanctums.

Callum Diggle

If the All Mother has perfect control over its minions, why do its minions need to come to it?

Voligne

Indeed! Gotta get around it somehow for narrative reasons.

Callum Diggle

Nice. That's how you forgo the instant communication problem.

His name is a Promise.

Callum Diggle

Hey, wait, if All-mother is considered God by the Overfathers, and the Overfather who rebelled is called Deicide, which means killing a god, then that means... SPOILER ALERT! :D

Overfathers are like nodes which the All-mother interacts with, they have some autonomy and they are conscious, but there is always the ever present will of the All-Mother guiding them. The All-mother has surveillance capabilities over the whole of the Imperium. She spreads her consciousness out into our universe through things called emitters, the one you see here is the central emitter. You can think of Overfathers as also serving the function of an emitter too to some extent. Like if you think of the AM as the internet and the emitters as WiFi routers then the Overfathers are like conscious, mobile WiFi extenders. As for power levels, The Overfathers have no where near the Psionic potential of the AM. They can hide themselves and cloak others but they would never be able to invade or influence the mind of the AM herself, the best they can do is retreat and hide.

Callum Diggle

Oh wow I’ve never heard of that but it sounds cool as heck! Just when you think you’ve come up with something you find out someone had already beaten you to it 🤣 I’ll check that series out though.

Callum Diggle

so considering the all mother seemingly needs overfathers. how intelligent are they in comparison to her? considering decide was able to cloak Lost for a time are they at a similar level of intellect when the all mother was first activated?

All mother in a pocket universe strongly reminds me about Ideal imperfection by Jacek Dukaj. In this book technology moved so far that ai's started to make their own pocket universes with altered laws of physics itself, like with infinite speed of light to boost their computing power

Not gone perse, just repurposed. Just googled what you meant and yeah, a bit haha

Callum Diggle

Thank you! Oh there will be plenty more of her don’t worry.

Callum Diggle

Oh thanks Hope, it’s so easy to let little things like that slip through!

Callum Diggle

Wow, so the earth is gone? The All-Mother reminds me of the Mathematica Logo :P

Absolutely fantastic! One nitpick is that 'its' as a posessive doesn't have the apostrophe - but again, a nitpick. It's fantastic.

No one cares

Absolutely fantastic, really looking forward to seeing more of all mother

First again
