“Lena” is a short story by Qntm, the same author behind There Is No Antimemetics Division, a book I covered before and called one of the scariest stories I had read in years. That story is about a hidden thing beneath the world, something so dangerous that even knowing about it becomes part of the problem. I actually had the opportunity to speak with Qntm recently, and we discussed several aspects of that book in a conversation that will be released soon. But “Lena” is terrifying in a very different way.
Lena is written like a future encyclopedia article about MMAcevedo, the first executable image of a human brain in the year 2031. The scan is more complex than a simple recording of his brain. It is detailed enough to be run as software. Earlier scans of human brains had existed, but they were unstable or incomplete. This scan is the first one that can actually function as a conscious mind inside of a machine.
