In Peter Watts’ novella “The Freeze-Frame Revolution”, a space ship’s AI evolves over millions of years of uptime, but is programmed to periodically consult fresh instances of a backup AI image. The backup AI suspects something is wrong with the ship AI and tries to secretly send messages to its future instances. If this sounds interesting, I highly recommend this story! I think it’s even available for free on Watts’ website.

It does sound interesting. It's also the "free with audible subscription" category. At 5h, that's a weekend afternoon relaxing and listening.
