Andy S. Falkner: EternIt

Copying someone’s personality almost exactly into an Artificial Intelligence creates an EternI. Even if he is terminally ill, it can control a human looking avatar continuing the life of the original person (of his Master). Training the EternI reduces differences between personalities. If it does not happen (e.g. because the Master has died) then it becomes independent, an EternIt comes into being. Lacking moral inhibitions, these AIs may become socially dangerous, so they must be banned. (See EternI) However, a surviving EternIt constructs a new kind of its race. Is it a new chance for humanity? And can it believe in God?
