Somewhere between the years 2020 and 2050 researchers would develop the technology
of Direct Neural Interface, allowing human minds to link with their computers. They
would advance genetic engineering to the point of the first optional improvements or
`tweaks' to the human genome as well as create the first `provolved' animals engineered
for human level intelligence. The dream of nanotechnology would start to be realized, as
nano-scale manufacture became a viable industry. And, using a combination of nanotech
created advanced materials, robotics, and tele-operated devices, development of a truly
viable and self-sustaining space infrastructure began in earnest. Finally, and ...

Over the course of Terragens history, a number of new terms and concepts have been

sentient building, or any other type of similar entity.

Alife: Beings evolved in artificial life simulations. Instead of being designed like AIs,
they evolve in a Darwinian way within a virtual environment. While most alife
simulations are intended as art, research or entertainment, alifes are generally
regarded as having sentient rights and should be allowed their freedom. Al...
