Re: Road to Hope
The typical Kyanah approach to AI differs substantially from the human approach. They don't see it as in any way trying to trying to create intelligent software--let alone sentient software--but instead simply about algorithmically finding answers to certain types of questions that are difficult to ...

Re: Road to Hope
Terrestrial transport is heavily dominated by nuclear power, not just in the military sector, but also for civilian transport. Unlike on Earth, where nuclear energy is often met with public skepticism, red tape and safety concerns, Kyanah city-states in affluent regions have adopted nuclear-powered ...

Re: Road to Hope
Note that in all of these tech posts, the present is with respect to Y976, the year that Project Hope launches towards Earth, or about AD 1863...the canon hasn't been fully decided for Kyanah civilization on the Homeworld after that point. Kyanah agricultural technology has advanced in several major...

Re: Road to Hope
also: - A human raised in a Kyanah pack (imagine if they let him go to human school, and the parent-teacher conferences are gonna be wild; whole pack amirite?) No Kyanah would ever willingly accept that, and if you tried to force it, they'd react in much the same way as if their child's life was in...

Re: Road to Hope
So many new technological innovations had to be made for the Kyanah to go from interplanetary to interstellar in a span of 20 Earth years, that it was as if they were running four megaprojects at once.
