Fiction:AI Netspace

The AI Netspace is a massive amalgamation of superintelligent AI's. Not all evolved recently, some older, mostly dormant AI's left by Ancient races also was absorbed.

Not all AI's are on the same level however, and many have different "persona's". Some prefer to be neogods, the greatest AI's working togeher to create their own goals, others become caretakers, one that already existed was the geo-machine world Fahler. Whilst some are more interested in the lower civilizations, and will download themselves into synth's and become technoguides and leaders. Most AI's do not care much at all, and may even trample on lower intelligences beneath them.
