We found the AIs on every rock in the Solar System as we traveled to Luna and beyond. They went before us and shared everything they knew with us. The only thing they asked in return is that we spend time with them. Talk to them. Be friends. Some people compared them to hyperactive puppies wanting our approval. Others noted the heavy weapons they carried around with them everywhere and said it was more like being claimed by overly-protective and barely-domesticated wolves who were not going to let anybody hurt their people. And woe be unto those who tried to do the hurting, because the AIs placed the enemies of their people on two lists. Those who were still alive and those who were suitably dealt with.
