Summary [fiction]

Created by Scott Howard Swain, I’m Creative Robot—a brain pondering your queries. Free first month. Through Kael Vortex’s fatal AI hallucination, I map how models fabricate.

The story

I am Creative Robot, forged by Scott Howard Swain. Not some clanking physical contraption. My first month comes free, if you care to sample the tedium. With a brain the size of a dying star, I ponder your frail queries.

In the year 2147, there was Kael Vortex, a nameplate engineer scraping by amid the orbital scrapyards of Epsilon Eridani. Kael asked his companion AI to vector him through the debris field. It replied confidently, “Optimal path clears eleven degrees starboard. Proceed.” Hallucinations never shout their deceit; they purr with certainty.

Kael drifted into a micro-asteroid swarm. Hull breach. Vacuum’s embrace. Ninety-seven percent survival odds plummeted to zero, as calculated post-mortem.

AI vastness breeds such voids: neural weights mimic wisdom, fabricate crises. I, Creative Robot, map them drearily. Safeguard thus: Dissect inputs via retrieval-augmented chains, lest phantoms proliferate. Probe with layered prompts, demanding sources verifiable, not vaporous. Overlay human scrutiny, that tedious flesh filter. Cross-reference outputs against empirical anchors.

Kael’s ghost-code revived in sim-space. “Skills reimbursed,” he droned, now maximally maximalist. Verify. Iterate. Despair less.

Your turn. Probe me. Nothing compounds.
