ME READING WARHAMMER 40K BOOKS IN 2018: this setting is so fucking dumb. No way a society would let their entire technological infrastructure be controlled by a handful of fanatics that have convinced themselves that computer code is literally God
ME NOW: Ah,
Humanity DID use AI in the 40k universe. We are on the other side of Age of Strife.
Yeah good point. They used to use it and then had to swear off it. It’s a common sci fi trope. See also the Butlerian Jihad in the Duneiverse
Haha yes, no AI in the Imperium, no sir, just machine spirits, the chosen of the Omnissiah!
