In 1872 Samuel Butler wrote Erewhon, a fictional story about the rise of the machines. He wrote it by hand because the earliest type writers hadn't been invented. He published anonymously because he feared people would think he was crazy. In Frank Herbert's Dune, the rise of the machines is called The Butlerian Jihad, in honor of this ideas first creator. https://www.patreon.com/FloreFantasyandLore   Email:   FloreFantasyAndLore@gmail.comFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Flore-Fantasy-and-Lore-100356535213434 Twitter: https://twitter.com/FLOREpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/florefantasylore/ https://www.youtube.com/@theflore6804
