Chained Words

by Javier Dario

What connects one intelligence to another?
What is it to be a human?
Would a being from another planet have a very different way of behaving from us?
And what about a robot? Without their own intelligence, they would be just a programmable tool. But when we endow them with it, the need for free will immediately arises. And in that case, for what reason would they assist us?
What would prevent them from seeing us as limited beings? Or perhaps, this reasoning is wrong, and they would be just another intelligence to deal with.

These and other questions are developed here throughout thirty-five short science fiction stories. including some fantastic tales.

About the author

Somewhere in the Milky Way, in the last century, Javier Dario emerged, possibly through panspermia. Even today, he retains his extraterrestrial appearance. Sometimes he's mistaken for a Martian, other times for a Kritomian. Most people consider him identical to a Tsudo, mainly because of his appearance and language. He remains true to his origins, narrating stories from the Great Neighborhood, astonishing more than one reader. His name has literally reached Mars (thanks, NASA).

Only his name, for now.
