The Uncontrollable AI
Otto is not listening–again. The first time this happened was with Lucy.
Now, he has found a beautiful female Homo erectus. She’s a warrior, strong powerful. She lives in Africa so wears no animal skin clothing to protect her from the cold. Here are pictures of Lucy, her clan, her habitat:
-
- Lucy: Her story of survival
-
- What Lucy called ‘Smoking Mountain’ because of its constant volcanic activity, we know as Ngorongoro, an extinct volcano
-
- Raza, crosses the Great Rift to bring Lucy back to his troupe
-
- the Chalicothere–an animal who shares Lucy’s habitat
-
- Garv, wanted nothing more from his life than to care for Lucy–and then Nature destroyed him
-
- Today, the Great African Rift separates species, caushing them to evolve separately. In Lucy’s day, it was new, easily traversed, but getting more dangerous every year.
-
- Man-who-preys, stronger and smarter than Lucy’s people–and survived by violence
-
- Baad–helps Raza bring Lucy back to their savanna homeland
-
- Acheulian tools used by Man-who-preys were much more advanced than the simplistic Oldowan tools used by ‘handy man’–Lucy and Raza
-
- East African mammoth, much larger predecessor to elephants. A herd was responsible for the death of Lucy’s troupe.
-
- Lucy and Garv–learned about life together and then learned about separation
-
- Hku, Raza’s Primary Male
-
- Kee, Raza’s Primary Female
-
- Feq, Lucy’s brother
