AI Rail

I had a strange dream last night. I don’t remember too many details, but an artificial intelligence figured prominently. In form it appeared as a great, golden, glassy globe, encompassed by a hollow disk, so that it loooked something like a ringed planet. It may have been extraterrestial in origin. I spoke to it at length. I don’t recall much of our conversation, except that I believe we discussed insect life at some point.

But the strangest thing of all was that it was mounted on a wheeled chassis which in turn was mounted on railroad tracks, and this was how the thing got around: on the railroad tracks that crisscross the land.

Perhaps it’s the cold medicine.
