Why do you consider it to be an ambiguous ending? Maybe I'm missing something, but I feel like there's only one way to interpret it.
I may have used the wrong word. I didn't mean ambiguity in the interpretation so much as I meant in the execution of the ending. Asimov doesn't delve into wild explanations as to how entropy ends up being reversed, or how any of these complicated things come about; that's not the important part. I like how he does it, with simple statements: And it came to pass that AC learned how to reverse the direction of entropy.
