Hmmmmmmm....

The change that "AI" is causing is that people that would have consulted experts now consult an automatic text generator.

This goes for social media feed algorithms and any artificial curation too.

Society doesn't collapse because your aunt uses Facebook or autocorrect. It collapses because CxO's and politicians use LLM's trained on The Economist.

If you pay close enough attention on your surroundings you still almost always can find people smarter than yourself in all fields. I doubt AI changed that, besides social isolation. But that was already a problem before.

Bless the Maker and his water.

There's a short story titled "Ancient History" that (with a heavy dose of inference/speculation) seems to suggest the Men of Stone were humans engineered specifically to have no/a greatly reduced warp presence in order to avoid attracting demons while navigating the warp.

And (with an even heftier amount of speculation) the attributes seemingly ascribed to the Men of Stone line up suspiciously well with what's known of the Leagues of Votann.

The tech sucks ass, but the people currently calling the shots are much, much worse

Also, right after the Men of Iron were put down, all the other races that had been too scared to attack us in our prime, stabbed us in the back, causing all the xenophobia

Ah damn you're right, teach me to 40k while tipsy!

Look, i'm not saying the Brotherhood of Steel is right in what they do, but i can totally see where they coming from, and what i see with techbros is almost making techno facist justifiable in some way.

the Emperor reveals himself and begins his nonsense.

Were you referring to this guy?

Because then i have to nitpick your nitpicking since he is a man of iron, not stone.

I was under the assumption that they were augmented humans. After checking the wiki, apparently there's so little information about them that they just say:

According to dimly remembered legends and the few scraps of actual historical record that survived the Age of Strife, the Men of Stone were an artificially-created or augmented faction or sub-species of Humanity who had been engineered by the equally legendary and poorly understood Men of Gold.

Neat. Today I learned. Basically just "Who the fuck knows"

AFAIK AI can be corrupted by chaos. That's probably why it went rogue and why it was banned. Well "banned", as big ships and STC-s probably have ai in them.

It's a grimdark setting. Everybody sucks, the Empire Of Man too.
