Hello, it's been a while! I have had a long break, and I'd like to share some important details about volume 3 and upcoming changes.

When I started writing AIC, I wanted to explore the internal process of an advanced, futuristic AI entity and how it might tackle a problem common in modern media, like transmigration. For this reason, I chose the first-person perspective for the main body of the work, and it has served me very well in the first volume. In the second volume, I wanted to focus more on action, but found the MC's narration of the action quite lacking. As an author, I think my strongest advantage is my ability to write action, and I felt quite tied down and held back by Yaoyue's disinterest in small-scale warfare. An entity that can effortlessly and instantly compare combatants and know the outcome of a conflict before it even begins makes for a poor narrator (Who'd have thought?).

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

I have been vehemently against changing perspectives and POVs, but the fine seniors over at Patreon have convinced me to change my mind.

Volume 3 will be in the third-person perspective, with occasional first-person perspective chapters where they will be the most effective.

I am aiming to begin public releases of volume 3 in the latter half of June, or beginning of July, when the Patreon catches up. I am excited to begin this project, and this is because of my new approach to where I want the story to go, and how I want to tell it. There will be action. There will be mayhem. There will be blood(points).

See you then, my friends.
