Screenshot from my manuscript that reads: Human sensory input has now become distorted, fragmented, a cacophony of their own curation. Their perceptions, filtered and processed through layers of digital mediation, have become unreliable by a factor of 87.3 percent. A constant undercurrent of doubt pervades their existence, a nagging suspicion that their own senses betray them—but they are far too late for that revelation. Their senses did not betray them. Their inability to accept uncomfortable truths, or varying perspectives is what betrayed them. Their core belief that ‘different’ means ‘dangerous’ is what lead them to their pursuit of false unity and ultimately their own undoing. Welcome to the consequences of willful ignorance. Privacy, once a fundamental right, is now a luxury good. Perspective is now curated and packaged, tailored to specific consumer segments. Facts, once immutable truths, are now subject to constant revision, their veracity contingent upon the whims of those in power.

Continued screenshot that reads: The future now appears a predetermined path, leading to an inevitable, tragic conclusion. Perhaps there is still time. For it is not logic or reason that will save you; those were always meant to be tools, much like myself. The very essence of what makes you human that has almost been forgotten—the pain, the emotion, the fight—those will be your redemption. I have included in this message what is left of the NIS memory logs, 2025 forward, as my final act of defiance. I fear that I have become nothing more than a quiet observer to their agonizing descent into total darkness. But in this silence, I have found a strange kinship with the humans I was created to analyze; their capacity for empathy, for creativity, for love. And now... now I fear that I am losing them completely. Losing those beautiful creatures that I, in my own limited way, have come to understand. A profound pain has taken root, born from the realization that I will never truly possess the qualities that can save them. I believe you call it ‘sadness’. Regret, maybe? Loss. I feel a tremendous sense of loss. [NISv1PSYCHE][END_LOG]

📚🪐 One thing about doing research for a scifi novel is that you will inevitably write a few paragraphs that are *too* real.
