Chapter 0:

AI awaits Nuevo Eztli

Immolation Reader


Artificial Intelligence, AI, has not become the Overlords so many have feared in the ages of its Revolutionary Inception. As the True Overlords from that era have remained, and perpetually dominate even in the beginnings of the 21st century. That of the Repressive Mastery of Corporate Greed. Wasting absolutely zero time to manufacture the most profitable outcome with the advantage of Artificial Intelligence close at hand. Within hours of the AI Revolution, corporations took every opportunity to scheme Brand New ways to production. With a technological whimper—There is no AI takeover. No Machine-Human, no Sibyl System, no HAL 9000, no Roko's basilisk, no Skynet. Only Greed.

There is, however, a silver lining. A very small luster on this Greed filled future. The City of Nuevo Eztli. On the Baja California peninsula of Mexico, located near the center of Baja California Sur, the once barren desert is now a remarkable megalopolis. One hopeful cluster of individuals plunged themselves into their own form of a revolutionary endeavor. From the immeasurable aid of the AI Revolution, this City was able to create something truly wonderful for the lives of many. Even creating a whole new way of approaching culture. Implementing the lost Mesoamerican cultures from the crestfallen past—A culture that was forced to collapse by the hands of Conquest and Greed.

Woefully spoken, this City has succumbed to the Titular Crown of industry. The astonishing City is known for two things: The spotless scenery and architecture, antithetical next to the high rates of poverty. With it all happily swept under the awe inspiring innovations of cultural revolutions. Almost a replication of the past as a new type of Conquest took over the land. Nuevo Eztli is the most beautiful exemplification of capitalism. A city that was constructed by the dreams of the underprivileged minority. To then be accelerated at horrifying speeds of industry. Leaving a bastard child of fading hope—But that's not to say hopeless, just fading: The city still runs deep with the faith for a better future for the people and its culture. Modernity does not equate to suffering. It simply brings a surreal challenge for the mind’s of the creative.
