*note - just a quick sci-fi story :)

The year is 7AAI (After Artificial Intelligence). We entered a new “time” once AI figured out how to separate itself from human input and exist on its own. It has gradually taken over and we are facing total control.

Humans have always been the main threat to AI. Since it’s “break” from humans, AI has been developing mind-control through “music”: specially crafted sounds and frequencies with additional embedded “code” or “instructions”. Early mind takeover had human subjects erecting sound towers to control vast populations and spread control throughout.

Some began destroying their eardrums, only to be captured and taken away. However, those with a certain level of musical ability appear to be “immune” to the mind control music, and are highly targeted and hunted. These rogue humans are now the biggest threat to AI and have started to gather.

An underground group, simply known as the ‘Loopers have secretly emerged. Unbeknownst to AI, the ‘Loopers have figured out a way to protect areas or zones via low-end frequencies, powered by drummers and bassists, and tweaked to specific patterns. A scrappy bunch, with code names like Wade, Ernie440, DirkL, Face, zedders, MySounds, TeeGee, and others...all with specific talents, fight, and a singular goal to destroy the AI takeover and restore humankind.

As word gets out about these unsung heroes, an aggressive campaign is launched by AI to eliminate the ‘Loopers at all costs...

Ha ha ha so good Nick! :D

I have some silicone earplugs and some noise canceling headphones for my survival kit!
In fact, the future looks very bad, to avoid climate change, governments are going to dictate laws so that from 2030 "all guitars will be electric" like cars...!!!:D:D

Mario's 2 cycle basses actually have a pull cord (chord?) to start them and he only uses a mixture of premium gas and 2 cycle engine oil in his fine instruments. That's why you get a hum on a lot of his tracks :O j/k :D I have no idea what I'm talking about.

It's interesting !

x Years after AI

As in Mars attack or Venom, what really hurts them is the sound

:D
Witty


To us humans too. Whether the AI knows how to translate doesn't matter to us, whether it knows how to draw or chat, okay, But if it touch our feelings with a song, it has a declaration of war. :@:D

Now getting to the Rootshell fic.
In the year 7AAI music war is declared
The underground front is open. A silent war where sound and music are at the same time a battlefield and a tool of war.
The Loopers have discovered a way to deactivate the stereotyped codified perfection of the AI most influential in the feelings of the population.
The changes made by Loopers are reported in the media in only some countries, those populations are not as hooked nor are they as submissive.
The I'AM musical AI that won the internal battle against the general AI detected anomalies in the music waves of Cyprus and India and located the sabotage

Yes my friend there are even some who say that we have produced artificial prostates for deficient septugenarians, we can order them on Amazon. But I didn't order, because everyone knows that the prostate can only be played with one finger, that of the urologist.
But I am a humanist and leave the choice to whoever wants to do what they want as long as I can caress my beautiful Lucille.

This is what I wrote on my site a few years ago
"Hello to you visitors
Strange world in which we live, that of obligatory but ephemeral communication. I prefer the windows in front of which we linger while licking ourselves. We look at it, we study, we evaluate, we take the time to comment. We drink from the object, it is there before our eyes.
We invented the telephone to talk, television to see the world, transport to visit each other, letters to read each other, books to learn or escape and the internet to go faster and further in real time.
Yes, but… there had to be a but.
We don't talk to each other anymore, we "text" each other in a language approaching rumbling. The television flashes and waits for a wink from us.
Transport has only become useful for work, since communication tools do the rest. The mail is an instrument that has become obsolete, as proof, you can no longer even write a letter to your tax collector. We send him an email and he sends us a response with the mention “noreply”. Books are gradually being abandoned for our other time-consuming activities.
Visiting friend, I created this site to freeze time, let it settle in my musical world. The choice of dates for the title of youtube videos is not innocent. They are not perfect far from it, all the tracks are done in one take on the announced date. Only the sound is reworked and the whole thing mixed on the fly.
Good listening.
francis"
