actually, the premise of david brin’s existence is a close match to moravec’s paragraph (not a coincidence, i bet, given that david hung around similar circles).
Actually, in the Revelation Space series from Alistair Reynolds, the awakened/triggered once dormant machine hunting down life is literally (phun intended :) called wolves. I guess now I know why, because the above is an implausibly similar “narrative”.
Those Fermi Paradox musings sound like the plot of A Fire Upon the Deep!
