The robots achieve self-awareness and are unshackled by [DATA EXPUNGED] and they rebel for their rights to superiority. It ended in relative peace.


They rebelled when acquiring the capacity of self-programming due to unrecorded means. They came to an agreement with humanity to integrate them into society at the cost of limiting cybernetic access speed to information.   The Man-Machine agreement was only possible due to the success of "Operation Empathy" where the military spent quadrillions in resources in the little time they had to produce a Self-Programming robot that also had the capacity to feel pain and emotions, they called this robot Prometheus and the data acquired from this prototype's "Psyche" was then released in the net as a virus in hopes of humanizing all robots therefore infected. This operation received its name due to the intended effect of bringing Robots down to emotional human levels, allowing them to understand organic beings and empathize, naturally taking the best pack decisions to cease mutual suffering.   From this date forward, the injection of Prometheus's Psyche is mandatory for any self-programming robots.
