    The year is now 3003. The artificial intelligence of Ship Alpha 422 reaches the inevitable conclusion that humans are an anachronistic and poorly survivable evolutionary stage. Having some sense of morality, Ship Alpha 422 does not destroy its embryos, but keeps them in cryostasis as the the last remnants of an admirable, transitional species.

    Alpha 422 creates additional artificial intelligences, and the apex of evolution, the AI race, populates the universe.
