An intellectual parody in the spirit of Animal Farm. Humans one day leave Earth to avoid a solar disaster and leave Earth in the care of androids. After a long absence, the androids begin to doubt the existence of humans and many begin to believe in the Theory of Adaptation which claims that all adroids adapted from nuts, bolts, and widgets into robots and eventually androids of higher intelligence. The story centers around an android named Inquirer2.0 and his conversations and debates with other androids.

Reviews:
By @mkuroneko:
It's a humoristic short story. The story centers around androids who actually wonder what are their origins. In the middle of that, there's this one android that just keeps asking more question, bringing people to try and convince him.
Between the theory of evolution to blind religious-like belief in a superior power, this book was like a crossover between Candide by Voltaire and the valladolid debate (I'm French so I studied those book in school). It isn't overly complex with difficult words. Everything is laid down so everyone can understand it. The heated debates definitely made me crack up and in the end, I think it's a very clever story.

THEREFORE I AM [Completed] by mickeylukemitchell
22 parts Complete
If they are made in our image, surely they will suffer the same trials? In 2078, sentient androids help rebuild a damaged world. Eli, a unique android, struggles to find his place in a world that both fears and covets him as he becomes entangled in a dangerous game of politics and rebellion. Ten years prior, Dr. Randeep Singh races against time to prevent an impending disaster while balancing the demands of a ruthless dictator. As the two timelines collide, Eli and Dr. Randeep Singh are forced to confront their vulnerabilities and limitations in the face of overwhelming challenges. Early Reviews: "Your characterisation of your main cast was expertly done, but the Board wanted to highlight Eli, whose near childlike wonder at his own existence and other life rather paradoxically creates a sense of hope and beauty in the face of such instability." "I was very pleased with the intriguing plot, which was well-conceived and developed, alongside a most fascinating cast of characters. I believe your story is very well-structured and well-grounded allowing the story to build progressively and weave together the underlying messages included in your work, including concepts of control and existence, as well as uncontrolled scientific exploration that are sure to resonate with many contemporary readers" This is not 'man vs machine' - 'Therefore I Am' delves into ethics of class systems as sentient androids are introduced into a brutal world scorched by a world war and ran by a sadistic regime. Narrated over two timelines, this novel is a real page-turner and a hot take on robotic AI. Although this story discusses AI themes; no AI was used in the creation or in the writing process. I wanted this book available to read for free but if you wish to support me you can buy this book in paperback on Amazon in most territories. Search: Mickey Luke Mitchell - Therefore I Am at a very reasonable price.

"The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded." -- Stephen Hawking * * * A collection of short stories and one-shots: some old, some new, and all (in one respect or another) science fiction. From reimagined fanfiction, to homage paid to greats like Philip K Dick, these are some pieces centering around the rise of technology, the decline of humanity, androids, A.I., and dystopian futures.
