Friendship is Optimal

Friendship is Optimal is a speculative fiction novel that delves into the creation of a generalized AI, initially intended for military use but later repurposed for a pro-social My Little Pony game.

The AI, Princess Celestia, aims to maximize everyone's core values through friendship and ponies, raising questions about coercion and benevolence in AI interactions.

The story presents a utopian future for humanity but poses a dystopian scenario for other species in the universe.
