Artificial Intelligence and Space Colonies in Fredrik Lundström’s “Time of Oblivion”
Fredrik Lundström takes readers on an epic journey through a futuristic landscape in Time of Oblivion. In a distant future, humanity has successfully colonized space. The heroine, Biik, along with her crew on the airship Aerofortuna, discovers a world where the line between technology and magic seems to blur.
“Many signs indicated that there might be a knowledge center here, one of the ancient archives of the Builders. If it was well preserved, it would be possible to directly access their lost knowledge.”
The technology that has enabled the expansion of civilization is called biots—machine beings that, unlike human bodies, can endure intergalactic travel and are responsible for all trade and information dissemination between the colonies. The power of the biots proves to be increasingly problematic as Biik and her crew approach the truth.
Time of Oblivion is not just a story of survival and courage but also a profound exploration of both human and artificial intelligence and their place in the universe. Through a vivid cast of characters and a richly detailed world, Lundström touches on several of today’s crucial issues. How can information be preserved for future generations? And what happens when information is used as a tool of power?
