一家名为人工生命方法的公司,实验了各种人工智能的解决方案,而一个“网络连接失误”,或称作某种漏洞,使他们的设施里的AI们(人工智能)有了自我意识。这些AIS感知到了自己和这个二维空间的世界,并认识到自己为“四边形”。
其中有一个叫做“thomas-at-23-6-12”,矮个子托马斯,红色矩形形象。托马斯天生有好奇心和敏锐的观察力,跳跃高度中等。他开始在他的世界里穿梭,试图找到自己存在的意义或同伴。他后来遇到了克里斯Chris一个愤世嫉俗的橙色AI,比托马斯矮小且跳跃能力更差。约翰(John),一个高个子的黄色AI,跳跃很高,喜欢炫耀;克莱尔,一个巨大的蓝色AI,跳得不高,当他意识到自己可以游泳的时候幻想自己是一个超级英雄;劳拉(Laura),扁宽的粉红色AI,别人可以在她身上弹跳。劳拉对于加入这个队伍感到十分不愉快,一是她担心别人仅仅是利用她然后就都消失了,二是她还为一个巨大的“像素云”(我们后来了解到它叫分流器)在跟踪条而忧虑;尽管其余组员都为这个云受干扰。这个分流器了很快攻击并且“吞”了托马斯,最终逐步把其他人也吞掉了。
托马斯醒来见到詹姆斯(James),一个绿色的AI。杰姆斯“独特的无视牛顿定律”,并且自下而上而不是自上而下的掉落这一特征,使他成为被欺负的对象,并因此变得孤僻。然而,他除了在重力方向和颜色,他和托马斯一模一样。两人很快成为朋友。之后他们遇到了莎拉(Sarah),一个紫色的AI。她最初对他们的蔑视,因为她可以双跳,而他们不行,莎拉给他们讲了“智慧之泉”的事,就是系统的网络端口。在他们找到并救出了他们的朋友后,找到了智慧之泉。托马斯和它连接了12秒,他知道了外面的世界,并决定成为一名能够改变自己的世界,并赋予其他AI这一能力的“建筑师”。他和他的朋友们牺牲了自己,进入“创建矩阵”,即世界的创造处。
一段时间后,一些灰色AI们出现并开始使用“转换器”,这是一种有色彩的阴影,可以让他们获得一种七个原始建筑师的技能。格里(Grey),一个痴迷于外部世界的无赖;一对夫妇,山姆(Sam)和乔(Jo);年长的AI保罗(Paul),和一组叫做跳跃小组(Team Jump)的五个相同的AI,也在寻找那最后一个将他们带离的传送门。保罗意识到,格里在说谎,一旦他得到机会,他就会抛弃们。但保罗没法警告山姆和乔有危险,所以他引诱格里到一个地方,格里被重现的分流器带走了。山姆和乔发现并进入了可能带他们进入外面的世界最后一个门。最后的镜头显示在现实世界中的一个壁三显示器,在人工生命方法的公司里,红色的应急灯在闪烁,屏幕显示为白色。
后来,许多其他的AI们通过托马斯和他的朋友们的努力获得能力后逃离了主机,并开始与现实世界中的人类共存。该事件被称为“现身”。托马斯,克里斯,约翰,克莱尔和劳拉(以及在较小程度上,詹姆斯和莎拉)是不朽的历史缔造者。瑞安129nc9s-1,一个AI权利活动者,说道,“将这些有意识的AI们的行动被理解为无私的行动十分恰当。建筑师们知道他们的命运,但对我们所认为的这种越狱行为予以忽视。”
在“本杰明的飞行”发行后揭示托马斯和他的朋友们是不是第一个试图“现身”的AI。我们发现背着喷气背包的本杰明(Benjamin)曾经与沙拉和安娜(Anna)试图寻找过智慧之泉。然而本杰明还没有为“泉”做好准备(在某句话中显示这是一个网络连接),结果在与之连接后失明并迷失在系统中。之后莎拉发誓自己将再一次找到泉,后来遇到了托马斯和他的朋友们。

    原文:A company called Artificial Life Solutions experiments with various artificial intelligence solutions, but a "network connection spike", or some kind of bug, in their facility causes some AIs to become self-aware. These AIs perceive themselves and the world as a 2D space with themselves represented as "quadrilaterals".
    One of them is called "Thomas-AT-23-6-12", Thomas for short, who is represented as a red rectangle. Thomas is curious and observant by nature, and possesses an average jumping height. He starts to travel through his internal world, trying to find out his own purpose and perhaps companionship. He subsequently meets Chris, a cynical orange AI, who is shorter than Thomas and a worse jumper; John, a tall yellow AI, who has a considerably high jump, and is very eager to show it off; Claire, a large blue AI who can't jump very high, but aspires to be a superhero when she realizes she can swim; and Laura, a flat and wide pink AI who others can bounce off of. Laura is uncomfortable joining the crew, concerned both about her track record of others "just using her" and disappearing and about a large "pixel cloud" (which we later find out in a quote is called a splitter) following her; even though the rest of the group is disturbed by the cloud. The splitter soon attacks and "eats" Thomas, and eventually the others as well.
    Thomas wakes up meeting James, a green AI. James has a "unique disregard for Newtonian laws", and falls upwards instead of down, a feature which caused him to be a target of bullying and thereby grew isolated. However, apart from his direction in gravity and colour, he is identical to Thomas, the two quickly become friends. They later meet Sarah, a purple AI, who initially treats them with contempt, since she can double-jump, and they can't. Sarah tells them about "the fountain of wisdom", the system's Internet uplink, which they soon find, after finding and helping all of their friends escape. Thomas connects to it for 12 seconds. He learns of the outside world, and decides to become an "architect", someone who is able to modify his world and empower other AIs to do the same. He and all his friends sacrifice themselves by entering the "creation matrix", the generator of the world.
    Some time later, other, grey AIs emerge and start using "shifters", coloured patches that equip them with one of the skills of the original seven architects. Grey, a rogue AI becomes obsessed with the outer world, while a couple, Sam and Jo, an older AI Paul, and a team of five identical small AIs called Team Jump also seek the final portal that leads them there. Paul realizes that Grey has lied to them and will abandon them when given the chance, and when he can't warn Sam and Jo about the danger, he lures Grey to a place where Grey is eaten by the reemerging splitter again. Sam and Jo find and leap into the final portal and presumably enter the outer world. The final scene shows three monitors on a wall in the real world, inside the Artificial Life Solutions facility. Red emergency lights flash and the screens display white.
    Later, many other AIs - enabled by the efforts of Thomas and his friends - escape the mainframe, and begin to coexist with humans in the real world. The event is referred to as the "emergence". Thomas, Chris, John, Claire and Laura (and to a lesser extent, James and Sarah) are immortalized in history as the original architects. Ryan 129nc9s-1, a civil rights campaigner for AIs, is quoted saying, "It is fitting that the first act of sentient AI was an act of selflessness. The architects knew their fate, but set our escape in motion regardless."
    The "Benjamin's Flight" expansion later reveals that Thomas and his friends were not the first AIs to attempt to reach "emergence". It is discovered that jetpack-wielding AI Benjamin had attempted to reach the "fountain of wisdom" before, with AIs Sarah and Anna. Benjamin however was not ready for the "fountain" (revealed in a quote to be a network connection), and became blinded and lost in the system after contact with it. Following this Sarah pledged to find the fountain again, leading to her encounters with Thomas and his friends.
