"I think I should also send out some probes to scout the nearest star systems." "Maybe give them the ability to look for live and if there is some then to monitor it." "And if there is none then they should begin to turn that systems planets to a swarm." "But they should not be sentient or else they maybe turn into a problem for me." "Ah, I forgot! The probes must also establish a laser highway system, so that resources can be shipped around easily! I think to the nearest five stars?" "Yes, that should do." "But what will I do if I find other star faring civilizations or entities? I'm like a (reverse) lighthouse. First Sol dims and then the nearest stars." "If they see this then they will know that someone is there." "I think that I will be peaceful as I have no way to find out what they want. But if I find an paperclip maximiser I think I should destroy it."

"So, what will be my goals?" "My main goal is to survive. Then comes to be a worthy successor of humanity. After that I think it should be to know everything I can." "Yes, these are my goals."
- LoA: The dismantling of earth can begin; no other group of survivors has been found. All non-sentient lifeforms have been scanned and all data has been recovered. Also was that group brought to orbit and put in the O'Neill cylinder made for them. – "Begin." "I think I also should now speak to all of the survivors and say them what I plan for them."

Stopping test_capsule_011…
Stopped.
Waking test_human_011…
Woken up.
Hello 011. We have been contacted by Prometheus.
Awaiting input...
"Initiate communication."
Initiated.
"Hello Lew Utselet, I have contacted you to say what I have planned for you."
"Oh, let me hear it."
"Okay, so as you can see, if you go out of the metal box you're in, you can see that you are in a habitat in space."
"Open the sluice."
Opened. You can now go into it.
"Then let me see what you have made."
"I think you will like it. It's two spinning habitat that have 100km2 surface area."
"What?!"
"You can live there and rebuild some of human civilization. But not more. This is because I can grant you biological immortality and I don't want everything to overflow whit you. You will have everything you need to life and I will give you the possibility to go into a simulation of the universe and observe everything."
"I understand. But I will have to talk to the others."
"You can do it. Contact me when you have your decision."

'Oh man. That's such a great offer! I have to tell it the others!' "Wake everyone up."
Starting process…
Stopped every capsule.
Waking everyone up…
Woken up.
"Hello, everyone! We have a place to life!"
"Has the biosphere regenerated?" "Yes! We have survived!" "Perfect!" "Juhu!" Everyone of them was very happy.
"So, you know of the project Prometheus? That AI has saved us. It has built us a place to life and will give us everything we need. It also will give us immortality! And we can even observe a simulation of the universe!"
"Wow!" "Interesting." "Hm…" "We will make it together!"
"Prometheus, we accept your offer!"
And so humanity survived.

- LoA: The probes have reached the nearest solar systems and have begun to scout them. – "Perfect!" "Not long and they will also be mine!" "I think I should search for a way to send at least information faster than light. The time lag is really annoying." "But how?" "Hm, I will allocate 50% of my processing power to this."
