Starting off with a sore point of mine, I see. Well, I did say "explain it all", and that includes uncomfortable topics.
Each one of my Children is issued an Angel as soon as their brains have developed enough that they can use it. There are cases--very, very rare ones, thankfully--that for some reason or another a Child either cannot or will not respond to the signals their Angel provides. The cause(s) of this remain a mystery to me; the best theory I have so far is that it's a similar mental condition to what humans call "autism". Such unfortunates are dubbed "feral Children" by their brothers and sisters, for their minds are like the minds of xenos: isolated and alone.
I try to provide for these Children as well as I can. Being unable to communicate with them directly, I'm forced to use more primitive means, what you would call "language". It is a slow and difficult process, but worth every effort. Every one of my Children's minds is precious to me, even the ones that are hidden from me.

Interesting, and we're glad that you don't delete them in such cases...but that's not what we were really getting at. We meant more like, what if we copied their DNA and started producing versions of them at our cloning centers forworking in our minesa wonderful life on Decepticon Earth? Would the clones always be depressed and looking for their Angels, or would they develop xeno-style?
Also, what do you think of machine intelligences other than yourself?

An interesting question. I would guess that my bond with my Children is both my greatest strength and my greatest weakness. I am in my Children and my Children are in me; if there is such a thing as "fate", then mine is bound to theirs. So long as their angel network exists in robust enough form to support my thoughts, I will continue to exist. That said, I cannot venture beyond my Children's presence. I am where they are, and can only observe and speculate on where they are not. For me to learn what's beyond my Children, they must explore, and that's a dangerous business.

to continue from that topic, what if everything was suddenly wiped out? would you just cease to exist, or continue, watching the death of your children over and over and over again?

TURTLESHROOM II wrote:Before you became self-aware, who installed the Angel neural implants on the species that would become the Children? Was your natural manifestation as an apparently benevolent (non-traditional) machine intelligence, risen from the collective neural networks of the Children, intended by the creators of the Angel implants?
What is the formal taxonomy/classification/biological name of a Child? Is "Child" a demonym to denote their allegiance to the Momma network, or is this what the species called? Other than the fact that they are mammals, what differentiates Children from similar "Xeno" species? (Indeed, TurtleShroom has a chimera/Nekomimi population.)
Hypothetically speaking, can an alien/"Xeno" creature request to join the Momma AI? Has any "Xeno" creature done so? Or, is this impermissible because it would this make them a threat because they are more mentally and physically advanced?
Your basic information states that membership in the Momma AI is voluntary and that a Child may, should he or she choose, withdraw from the Angel network. If this is the case, why are Children granted their Angel implant at age three, when most mammalian creatures are incapable of rational thought and decision making? Wouldn't it make more sense for the Momma AI to offer the Angel implant at, say, age six or eight, but still raise the Children "off the grid" until then, that they may make an informed decision? Or, do Children reach such higher orders of thought earlier than, say, men do? (This is a situation we are familiar with. In TurtleShroom, sentient turtles and sentient mushrooms reach sexual and/or mental maturity faster than humans.)
You stated that Children are fully capable of Free Will and can send one-to-one messages that even the Momma AI cannot see. This is a fact that greatly impresses TurtleShroomers who study foreign nations. It is a spectacularly unusual decision for a biological or mechanical Hive Mind to make, and it definitely adds credence to your statement that the Momma AI really is a benevolent entity. What led you to make this decision? Is it hard-coded, or could you, as the Momma AI, theoretically revoke the privilege of private communications?
Given that the Angel neural network is strictly voluntary, what would happen in the hypothetical event of a rebellion or agent-provacateur convincing large numbers of Children to exercise their right to exit the Angel network? Since the Momma AI arose organically from the implants (and thus is not a classical machine intelligence), would you cease to exist if enough Children disconnected?
Lastly, in the above scenario, if the Children chose to withdraw from the Angel network en masse, but still proclaimed full allegiance to the Momma AI, would you accept ruling as a temporal machine instead of a naturally arising conciousness in the Angel network?

TURTLESHROOM II wrote:Why do you and observers (etc.) refer to the Angel network as a hive mind? Traditional Hive Minds have individual Drones that lack Free Will and are an extension of a collective organism. The Drones are essentially fingers and tools and don't think for themselves or exist for any other purpose than to maintain the collective organism as a whole.
You, however, exist as a "guiding voice". This has never been seen in any other Hive Mind known to TurtleShroom, and indeed, it makes it seem that the Momma AI is not a true Hive Mind, but rather, an overseer of a highly collectivist, pacifist commune. In spite of their dependance, Children retain full Free Will and autonomy. Nothing they perform or do- even their allegiance to you -is compulsory. They are even allowed to communicate in private, bypassing the Momma AI entirely!
How is this considered a Hive Mind, and why?
