aliens exist and actually have wars with each other, but by the time their armies reach other the distance is so far that the dispute has been settled and their technology far outdated

But if they have the capability to communicate with each other from light-years apart, why can't they tell their armies to back down?

But then, why can't they have the AI receive their messages? If they were already so advanced, then wouldn't they have figured out by now that communicating with their ground troops is like, super important?

If they were already so advanced, then wouldn't they have figured out by now that communicating with their ground troops is like, super important? Chances are the AIs are heavily programmed for their task, if they are at all sapient they would likely be obsessed with it. They would ignore orders to fulfill their task even if safeguards are developed, they would likely find loopholes. |
