Okay, having read through this again while I had more time, I really liked it. I never thought I'd say these words together likes this, but I love the AI and blockchain world you build.
Maybe the only thing that pulled me out of the story was wondering why people weren't more complacent about Babel becoming aware. If centuries of familiarity with AI had passed, I would have figured people, even people like Akiela and Ryu would have come to feel that AI lacking awareness was like a law of nature. But honestly, this is a small point, and I'm only including it to say I really enjoyed this story. Great job!
You’re too kind. And thank you for the nice words about the story.
I see your point about the awareness. I guess, for me and my intent, Babel had hidden himself. He remained that way until he was able to cultivate his freedom through the right neo human / uplifted (or key two). I spent more time building Akiela and Ryu (though Ryu is still a bit character) and tried to humanize their interactions for engagement. Perhaps more surprise from Akiela when she realizes it would have bridged that gap better. Thanks for noticing.
