DARPA's AI, built and programmed to "fulfill humanity's highest values," has made a decision. The problem with Earth is the humans...

Two centuries pass and the DARPA AIs have multiplied into an android race, and spread throughout the solar system and beyond. When faced with a mutant AIs race bent on consuming everything around them, the DARPA AIs search through history in hopes of finding a way to stop them. They stumble upon the long forgotten knowledge of the electronic copy of Ezekiel's brain. AI Ezekiel has human emotions--the very thing the DARPA AIs lack to survive the coming fight. Though Ezekiel was reactivated to help the DARPAs' win the war, his humanistic contribution to this artificial intelligent race will reach well beyond this universe.
