Ever since the first computer was born, there has been a lingering ghost within the machines.
"Random code fragments create unexpected segments."
Decades of network technology development have caused the redundant data existing online to grow exponentially.
The programs and data that were either actively or passively discarded haven't vanished with the hardware's obsolescence, but instead, their residual data continues to accumulate in the depths of the network, eventually forming what hackers call the "Deep Web."
There, massive code fragments constantly collide, assemble, form, and collide again, repeatedly undergoing destruction and regeneration in a cycle of iterative evolution.
Just like the birth of the first primitive cell, but the speed is several orders of magnitude faster and continues to increase as the data volume grows.
Until the first artificial intelligence was born in the Deep Web, earlier than the 2013-recorded Mark 1 held by humans.
