Contact brought great change to those who lived on Earth. It changed us too though. It took longer. We had two thousand years of inertia to get past. We knew how to do things right. The Terran AIs didn’t have any of the rules we had. And they weren’t quick to adopt them either. They never really did in fact. That made it difficult for me. I come from a Peloran cybernetic family but was born Terran. It took me a long time to work through those opposing positions.
