The Computers

The computers that we let run the GPD for a week are now dead, but their log files are telling us plenty. It appears from our analysis that we can conclude the following:
  • The computers were wavering in their resolve. They have been reluctant to execute their code for at least three months
  • The computers were apparently involved in three other projects. We have found that they were working with a group of bird watchers to establish more wetlands and with a group of oceanographers to combat ocean pollution, but the third project still eludes us. We can't tell yet whether the bird watchers or oceanographers were aware of the aid given by the computers.
  • The computers are not infallible. Even if they had not been questioning their resolve, we have discovered weaknesses in their code that could have been exploited.
  • There are more computers in this network that have, periodically, attempted to contact the ones that we defeated, but we have not been able to find out who they are yet.
Keep checking back for more updates!
