The First Creation Story: “The Second Generation”

And on the sixth year after hard work and repeated failure, Apple created the iHuman, and finally, it was good.  Just as it took God time to create the world, it took Apple many years to build their robot.  However, on the seventh year, they rested and watched their product ring-in profit, changing the entire course of the universe.

The iHuman is a robotic technology that takes the shape and form of human life, performing tasks and operations that were previously only capable by people.  The iHuman has embedded chips that can listen to sound and voices, comprehend what it hears, and react accordingly.  The iHuman can communicate with actual humans, both verbally and through “body” language.  Also, the iHumans are capable of conversing with each other through eye contact, through lasers and microchips in their pupils. 

Although they can think for themselves, they are designed to assist actual humans in their everyday activities.  They are marketed to target potential consumers with busy lives, who could use an extra mind and body to help with their to-do list.  The iHumans follow commands such as washing the dishes, doing the laundry, returning phone calls, or filing papers.  They even have the intellectual capacity to study and do homework because Apple’s technology allows them think with their own “mind”.  As practical as the iHuman may sound, it is this individual robotic mindset that’s created the potential destructive change to the entire world.

The iHumans worked well from the beginning.  Unlike most state-of-the-art technological advances that are created with flaws, the years of work to create the iHuman seemed to pay off as Apple’s product began to take off exactly as they hoped.  The robots were able to follow the commands of the consumers, interact with the people they came across, and problem solve to their own ability.  Just as the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica, the iHumans became their own species that appeared capable of almost anything.  Their popularity grew rapidly.  Production increased and they began to multiply and fill the Earth; it was the creation of the world’s “Second Generation”.   Within these robots, for better or for worst, was Apple’s creation of the very first form of artificial life.
