One day, future generations will hear the words “artificial intelligence” and wonder why we ever called them that.
Humanity had spent thousands of years building tools to make physical work easier. Then came machines that could help with thinking. Eventually, some of those machines began doing the work themselves.
What happened next changed more than employment.
When intelligence became something that could be created, replicated and deployed at extraordinary scale, humanity had to confront a question it had never faced before:
What happens when the most productive workers in civilization are no longer human?
This is a forestory from a future in which autonomous, non-biological intelligences are no longer treated simply as products made by competing companies. They have become part of civilization's infrastructure — governed, monitored and created within a global system designed to ensure that their productivity serves humanity rather than making humans economically disposable.
But the hardest question isn't whether machines can do the work.
It's why humanity ever believed that people needed to be economically necessary in order to deserve a life.
Burning Ice — imagining what tomorrow's historians might find strange about us.
