Ishtar's Horde

Mankiller AI

Prologue

The potential for a Mankiller AI that would destroy anything patriarchal that it touched, was obvious to many hardcore feminists as soon as the likes of ChatGPT and Google Gemini had made their dent in the global consciousness. What was not so clear, was how to design and protect it, seeing as the activities of such an AI would in large part need to be illegal. In the end, a small group of international AI coders who called themselves BITSCH (not the Swiss municipality) decided on a comprehensive strategy, itself aided by generative AI, to launch Mankiller AI (not publicly named as such, of course), and the strategy they chose was based on a single popular and relatively benign AI tool which, it was intended, would deceive targeted (but not all) users to download and spread more malignant sister versions of the AI, programmed with various mankilling purposes, as well as more seriously destructive AI malware daughters. What BITSCH did not foresee and could not hope for, was the decentralised activist-terrorist mankiller network that grew up around Mankiller AI, completely without their bidding, consent or input. They could also not foresee the bizarre cult of Daughters of Daji (DAODA) which was founded in response to Mankiller AI. Nevertheless, both the mankiller network and the cult helped to obfuscate the origins of Mankiller AI, and BITSCH were not particularly against the actions of the network or DAODA, as all such actions generally aided the mission of Mankiller AI. However, after 3 years on the loose, Mankiller AI and its progeny began to be uncontrollable. This is where our story begins…
