As technology is continually advancing
into our personal lives, we are potentially looking at a future where
Google Artificial Intelligence programs are going to drive our cars
for us. Though it may seem a stretch right now, the day may come when
all of our cars are equipped with AI; talk to any auto-mechanic, and
they'll tell you that already, much of your car is run by a computer.
AI-driven vehicles will likely be well-received if statistics show
fewer accidents with the smart cars. Another benefit to them would be
the freedom for passengers to do something else during a commute,
such as play with their smart-phones or take a nap. Yet in movies
like Total Recall (1990), Demolition Man (1993), and Minority Report
(2002), there were instances where the passenger wanted manual
control of the vehicle because the AI was not capable of handling the
circumstances. How much control will we have over our cars in the
future? For that matter, how safe will they be from some kind of
corporate or government control, limiting where and when we travel?
And what is to guarantee that hackers can't suddenly access and take
control of our vehicle—it has already been done with remote drones!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
