About the book: 2003 / Consists of the novels “Robinsons”, “Legionnaires” and “Earthlings”. More precisely, it does not consist, but is simply divided into three parts. Each subsequent one is a direct continuation of the previous one. Also an idea that has been repeatedly sucked from all sides - the creation by people of artificial intelligence and the attempts of this AI (or in English AI - “Hey-Ay”) to get along with people. Misunderstanding by intelligent robots of things that are obvious to humans. People's better understanding of themselves, after such a sobering look from the outside. Etc. In this case, we can get acquainted with Vartanov’s view of this problem. And he, as always, is unique. Four intelligent combat robots capable of communicating with each other via radio, freed from the restrictions imposed on behavior due to flaws in the program, escape from the American training ground, hijacking a military helicopter, fly three hundred kilometers to a sparsely populated area and take refuge there for nine years in a cave in conservation mode in order to disable the built-in radio beacons (and after nine years there is a chance that the search will not be so intensive and it will be possible to dismantle these beacons before they are found). Upon leaving the cave, they discover that no one knows about them, since the laboratory where they were made was destroyed with all documentation as a result of a disaster a year after their escape. By chance, the only person living in a deserted rocky area, which they chose for self-preservation, turns out to be a hermit - a cyberpunk who has been waiting for something like this all his life. Well, he begins to teach them about life. In my own way. Using the resources of the Internet and the help of the same cyberpunk hermits from other countries who are constantly in video conferences with him... An intriguing beginning, right? Then the adventures begin - the accidental hijacking of a truck with drugs from the local drug mafia, an acquaintance with the local "pioneer camp", clumsy attempts to help and other jokes. There is no need to add that these robots are equipped with the latest camouflage system and powerful weapons. In general, Vartanov had a lot of fun.
