This show is about as planned as Battlestar Galactica (2004).
It even has the "sentient beings insist on playing god and create sentient beings which end up destroying them" theme.

What did this say? It’s been deleted.

I’m assuming the writers knew there was a good chance the series would be cancelled and that’s why they ended S4 like they did.

I had assumed (and this is pure assumption, not stated anywhere in the show itself) that the original hosts who uploaded to the human-free space had also basically moved on/evolved past that hardware space but still kept a connection to it again purely out of nostalgia/vague curiosity for any of the remaining hosts who might try to reach out and/or similarly evolve. If the hardware there failed, they had already found some new, indistinguishable from magic scientific breakthrough where they could continue to exist in some other form as pure data or radio waves or light or something crazy like that, and it would just be a door closing (and only for the other side, they'd still be able to reach out if they had any desire to, which they probably wouldn't).
Isn’t that how Her ended?

Remember when Zazlav got excited about the “90 Day Fiancé Universe” on the WB Discovery investors call?
