The Cybernetic Council has done a lot of exploring outside the boundaries of human space. A while back, they called on me to join a fleet headed out further than normal even for them. The target was a world they had learned about that was devoted entirely to diplomacy. The race that called it home were biological lie detectors, and so were perfect mediators. They hadn’t seen one of my kind in a long time. The really wanted my perspective on what we’d been up to for the last ten thousand years or so. Not gonna lie. That was a real interesting place to visit. And my game AIs really jumped at the opportunity to explore it all, and they and the other cybers spread out and shared everything they learned. And a fun time was had by all.
