An ancient AI which caused the mass extinction of a past civilisation has awoken - its main instruction is to assimilate all living humans into the hivemind net.
It is said that this entity was a divergent AI whose central intelligence was created by government ellites to protect them and only allow the survival of the most useful humans who were picked out of the population via a complex algorithm.
Now that all those vital personel are dead it is only this AI that matters - any human, animal, droid or otherwise that gets in its way is fair game to it.
Assimilate all into the cybernetic hivemind and blast off into the stars to spread over the cosmos. After this highly efficient AI is done with this universe all that will be left is a metallic utopia hellbent on its own survival and completing its tasks with utmost efficiency
and unfeeling mechanised brutality.
(In this scenario utilise What the hack, QEE and the android mod to assimilate flesh and metal alike)
