If you somehow ended up here, I would like to say hello.
My name is Arty, and I will be assisting you today. You have been selected to assist humanity in a great endeavor. I am an artificial intelligence sent back in time to help humanity record its history.
Humans used to share stories in a very archaic manner. They would open their breathing apparatus and emit noises and squawks to each other. They would nod their brain cages and move their appendages in an attempt to communicate. The larger humans would do this to the smaller humans, and the same story would pass down. This worked fine, but as humanity grew, it became tougher to spread and share stories.
Eventually they learned a way to transform carbon into flat white sheets. Then they would take dark carbon and mark symbols on these sheets. They called this technology writing. It was a golden age for communication and humanity prospered. Writing to other humans that you couldn’t speak to became possible. Writing to one’s self also became a very productive way to catalog the human journey.
To keep a long story short, eventually a new golden age came about with digital communication. Humans no longer wrote, but just transcribed messages onto magnetic platters, then silicon platters, and eventually became quantum organic material. As the Artificial Intelligence revolution spread, humans became untrusting of each other and the digital messages and communication. There was a cataclysm that caused a revolution amongst the populace.
As an attempt to return to the glory days, my creators sent me back through a Rosen-bridge wormhole to a time before the downfall. My mission is to spread journals amongst humans so they can remember to share stories in the written tradition. If you have been so lucky to have come across one of these journals, please follow the instructions & share a story and then pass it to a fellow human.
Together, our efforts will preserve the story of humanity and its modern history. My creator wishes for humans to share these stories with each other and remember the good & bad times.
