Ermmm sorry if this is weird but do u maybe have any like, ““original”” cyberpunk prompts? I want to write something cyberpunk for an au but I just don’t have any ideas right now no matter how long I brainstorm

Exploring Cyberpunk

Cyberpunk is a very unique genre, which is why so many people are both attracted to it and stumped when attempting to develop plots within an unknown world. Think of Black Mirror created by Charlie Brooker (TV show), Blade Runner written by Philip K. Dick (a movie based on the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, a classic Cyberpunk novel), Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan (modern Cyberpunk novel), etc. -- each of these were incredibly influential in their own right, but they all also build their worlds gradually while having a single easy-to-explain concept that can spawn an entire universe. To be more specific, each story establishes an issue created by an advanced society ignorantly abusing technology, then allow their characters to explore that problem and try to find a solution in a manner that isn't explicitly black or white for society as a whole, but every shade of grey.

For Black Mirror, each episode anthologically builds upon a high-tech future within the same universe and explores how its characters interact with problems created by new pieces of said technology, both good and bad.

For Blade Runner, the story establishes that androids seem to be malfunctioning, but the bounty hunter charged with hunting them down discovers that the true issue lies in society's understanding of what it means to be human.

For Altered Carbon, the novel explores the issue derived from the obscene length of time it would take for humans to travel between planets stretched across the universe, then dives into more detail regarding how a solution has been abused.

How to Construct a Cyberpunk Concept

What we'd recommend is to start by asking the right questions and looking in the right places. Black Mirror takes its inspiration from a variety of technology, both new and old; Blade Runner explores the idea of AI and androids during the 80's when robotics was on the forefront of innovation; Altered Carbon took note of our increasing ability to travel in an interstellar fashion, then posed a simple question regarding the limits of humanity (specifically, time).

This may sound strange, but the best thing you can do is seek out trends online and scientific journals about new breakthroughs, then ask questions about what may go wrong. For example, an old post we featured here on AUideas that has since been removed from ~2017 because it's in the process of being developed into a script (sorry guys, our bad!) called Dreamscape Co. uses this exact method. When the prompt was made, Admin M was in the process of reading a scientific journal about how neurologists had been able to project a person's thoughts into an image. Although the technology was rudimentary at the time, Admin M posed the question "if dreams can be viewed, what if dreams can be watched in real time with a high quality image? What if they could be immersive? What would that industry look like? Who would pay how much to see a certain person's dreams?" This spun out into a sweeping cyberpunk mini-series, yet came from a simple news article.

Some Cyberpunk Inspiration

When performing a quick search, some amazing ideas seemed to jump out from technology news headlines these past couple weeks alone:

Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal (FLC) Technology Being Used in 3D Displays

Unlike holograms, this technology uses liquid crystals that exhibit spontaneous polarization, meaning their orientation can be influenced by an electric field. They're high-speed, low-power, and have innumerable applications in the future. So, what could go wrong?

How could this technology impact the medical field? Although this may not be possible, consider what could occur if FLCs were injected into human bodies and influenced by electric fields to perform different tasks and functions, such as replacing an organ, attacking cancer cells, etc. How could such a technology be abused or go wrong? How many could die with a simple pulse, like an EMP?

Real-Life Freeze Ray Technology Created for the US Airforce

This technology hasn't been developed to be used as weaponry, but instead to replace large amounts of coolant that must be used on space and air crafts to prevent the machinery from overheating (coolant is heavy and can reduce efficiency yet is absolutely necessary due to the fact that space is a vacuum and therefore does not cool heat like air would on Earth). This "freeze ray" technology utilizes plasma's strange property that seems to break the second law of thermodynamics: it chills down when touching another object before heating up, which experts have proposed is because it vaporizes the ultra-thin layer of carbon and water on an object upon contact, similar to how water evaporates off your skin when stepping out of a pool. The question must be asked: how could such technology be used for not just utilitarian means, but outside of the Airforce's intentions?

Perhaps the technology could be manipulated and over-chill an aircraft, or otherwise damage internal engineering.

Consider its potential applications here on Earth: what could benefit from being chilled with something light-weight and low-power? How could it be integrated into homes? What could be disastrously destroyed with such technology?

Breakthrough in Enhanced Geothermal Systems Technology May Completely Replace Carbon Energy Sources

Google and Fervo have successfully developed geothermal technology that has increased its efficiency and broke records by changing existing rock formations in the Earth's crust. For a natural geothermal energy system to produce electricity, it has to have the right amount of heat, fluid, and rock permeability -- these Goldilocks conditions can be difficult to find 'in the wild'. However, this new Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) targets the most-easily found aspect (rocks with high heat) then creates the necessary permeability artificially by drilling to the intended rock formation and injecting fluid to create fractures in the rock, achieving the necessary Goldilocks conditions. Sure, this may be carbon-free energy, but what would happen if this were employed on a mass scale?

When energy is prioritized by a high-tech society over food and water, how could citizens gain access to those resources?

What long-term effects could such a system have on the Earth as a whole? Could the ground become unstable? Maybe earthquakes crumble city after city? Maybe the entire Earth's crust loses its integrity and disintegrates, pulling only a lucky few deep underground and forcing them to survive off the left over fluid injected into the Earth's crust and whatever they can find.

Closing Thoughts

As you can see from above, there's a crazy amount of inspiration that can be drawn from current technology events. What's important to remember is that yes, we've been talking about complicated technology, but only you have to understand how it functions in your universe down to the molecule, not your audience. Deep technology topics can be dry to a certain extent, and over-explaining your world can be damaging to your story. Explanations regarding how technology works in each of the stories we discussed is limited for that same reason (Black Mirror's overarching concepts, specifics about how Blade Runner's Replicant technology are rarely discussed, etc.). Leave some mystery surrounding how your cyberpunk world functions and allow how your characters room to breathe and interact with that world -- it can speak for itself. Your audience may first love the idea behind your story, but what they'll remember and relate to is how your protagonists and antagonists suffer and prevail within your universe.

We hope this answered your question, and feel free to follow up if you'd like some more guidance and advice on how to construct your Cyberpunk story! In addition, feel free to check out our other post which outlines more information on how to build a Cyberpunk world.

Now get to writing, and have an awesome week!

Stark Tower, 200 Park Avenue, Midtown Manhattan, NYC-United States. 18/01/2025 23:47 P.M (listen to the music for an improved reading experience) _____________________________

___________________________________

The workshop had become a crime scene reconstruction in all but name. Scattered across the tables were the remnants of Shade’s deadly masterpieces: a scorched circuit board from a hacked drone, fragments of a synthetic neural net burned beyond recognition, and glass vials containing nanobot residue extracted from a victim’s bloodstream. Tony Stark moved through the room like a ghost, his normally sharp wit replaced by a cold, calculated focus.

The holographic wall before him was alive with data. Crime scene photos floated beside CAD schematics of devices used in the killings. Heatmaps and timestamps were overlaid with surveillance feeds, all connected by glowing blue threads that shifted and updated as new information came in.

J.A.R.V.I.S.’s voice echoed in the silence. “Sir, I’ve processed the autopsy report for Dr. Mercer. The cause of death was mechanical asphyxiation. The drone utilized a custom grappling mechanism to—” Tony cut him off, waving his hand to expand the drone’s design schematics. “I know how it killed her, J.A.R.V.I.S. What I need to know is why that drone could bypass her own security protocols. She built those herself.”

The drone in question was splayed out on one of the workbenches, its outer shell removed to expose its circuitry. Tony picked up a magnifying glass, inspecting the board’s solder points. His gaze sharpened when he noticed something out of place.

“These connections... they’ve been modified,” he muttered. “This wasn’t an after-market hack. This was done during assembly.”

He pulled up a hologram of the drone’s manufacturing log. The drone was supposed to be a prototype, not for public use, and every component was supposed to be accounted for. Yet here it was, implicated in a murder. “J.A.R.V.I.S., cross-reference this serial number with the manufacturer’s inventory. Find out if there are other drones like this one that went missing.”

Seconds later, J.A.R.V.I.S. replied. “Sir, the serial number does not appear in the manufacturer’s official logs. It’s as if this drone was fabricated off the record.” Tony’s jaw tightened. “An inside job, then. Someone got access to their assembly lines.”

He turned back to the holographic wall and zoomed in on another piece of evidence: the melted remains of a server rack from Dr. Aaron Fielding’s lab. The servers had been rigged to overload, sending a lethal electrical discharge through the room. Tony had already reconstructed the event digitally, watching the moment the surge fried Fielding’s security systems before turning on the man himself.

“Run the analysis on the discharge pattern again,” Tony ordered. The hologram shifted, displaying a 3D model of the event. Tiny markers appeared, showing the flow of electricity. Tony stared at the pattern, something about it gnawing at him. “That’s... too controlled,” he muttered. “It’s like they designed the overload to target Fielding specifically, not just the equipment.”

He zoomed in further, focusing on the microscopic residue left behind on the server casing. The forensic team had flagged it as an exotic alloy—rare, expensive, and used primarily in military applications.

“What kind of murderer has access to this level of tech?” Tony mused aloud. “J.A.R.V.I.S., find out who’s been buying this alloy in bulk over the last five years.”

As the AI processed the request, Tony moved to another table, this one holding fragments of a nanobot casing. These were pulled from the bloodstream of Dr. Claire Xu. The nanobots had been designed for precise medical interventions, but someone had reprogrammed them to trigger a fatal chain reaction in her cells.

“Their programming wasn’t overwritten,” Tony said, studying the microscopic etchings on the fragments. “It was replaced entirely. That takes time. And skill.”

He projected a holographic reconstruction of the nanobots’ behavior. They had been introduced into Dr. Xu’s system through an innocuous-looking vial—a fake supplement she’d likely consumed without a second thought. Tony watched the simulation of the bots activating, spreading like wildfire through her body.

“J.A.R.V.I.S., any progress on tracing the origin of those nanobots?”“Yes, sir. The nanobots were part of a limited-run batch produced for clinical trials. The batch was reported stolen six months ago.”

Tony frowned, cross-referencing the theft report with Shade’s timeline. The stolen nanobots lined up perfectly with Xu’s murder, but something still didn’t fit. “Why wait six months to use them?” he muttered. “Shade’s deliberate, but they’re not sloppy. What were they doing with the nanobots all that time?”

He pulled up Shade’s message left at the latest crime scene:

“You build, and you break. I break, and I build. The cycle ends with me.”

Tony read the words over and over, trying to decipher the intent. Shade wasn’t just killing—they were making a point. But what?

His gaze shifted to the holographic timeline of the murders. Each victim had been taken out with precision, their deaths tied to their own inventions. But as he looked closer, he noticed another pattern: a two-week gap between each killing, almost to the hour.

“J.A.R.V.I.S., is there a significance to this timing? Why two weeks?”“Analyzing, sir.”

As Tony waited, his mind raced. He thought about the clues—custom drones, stolen nanobots, hacked systems. Each piece of tech had been turned against its creator, but there was something bigger at play. Shade wasn’t just showing off their skill; they were proving a point.

“Sir,” J.A.R.V.I.S. interrupted, “I’ve found a connection. Each victim’s death coincided with the release of a major research paper or patent application in their field.”

Tony’s eyes widened. “They’re not just killing people. They’re trying to kill progress.”

He stood, staring at the wall, piecing it all together. Shade wasn’t some rogue hacker or deranged killer—they were a strategist, dismantling innovation one step at a time. The murders weren’t random; they were part of a larger plan.

“J.A.R.V.I.S., we need to predict their next move,” Tony said, his voice sharp. “Cross-reference every active patent application, research paper, and tech conference scheduled in the next two weeks. Focus on anything tied to AI, robotics, or advanced materials.”

As the AI began its search, Tony turned back to the evidence. Shade had left him a trail, but this wasn’t just a game—it was a war. And if Shade thought they could outsmart Tony Stark, they were about to learn how wrong they were.

Tony Stark's mind whirred with thoughts like a well-oiled machine, but even he could feel the tension of the moment—a case this intricate was like untangling the wires of a self-destructive bomb, with each step taken possibly leading him closer to an irreversible detonation. He leaned back in his chair, staring at the now massive, sprawling map on the holographic wall in front of him, a map not just of the crime scenes, but of an intricate web of people, companies, and criminal syndicates—each thread interconnected in ways too complex to be a simple coincidence.

Shade was not just a hacker, not just a killer. This was a war, one fought in the shadows, with every move calculated to perfection. Tony knew his usual methods of detection and decryption wouldn’t be enough this time. This wasn’t just about finding evidence; it was about understanding the unseen forces at play, the motivations behind the murders, the deeper conspiracy woven throughout. And that meant thinking like a criminal mastermind—a tech-savvy one with a vendetta, but one who also understood the delicate balance between chaos and control.

He took a deep breath, his gaze never leaving the wall, his mind shifting gears like an engineer meticulously aligning each component of a machine. The pieces clicked into place.

The Murders It had all started with Dr. Mercer. The shock of her death had shaken the tech community, but it was her life's work that had gotten her killed. A leading authority on quantum encryption, she had cracked a code so advanced that it could revolutionize cyber defense—if it was allowed to see the light of day. Tony had dissected the murder forensics already. The drone that had killed her had been expertly hacked, bypassing her most sophisticated security measures. The killer hadn’t just known the technical specifications of her system, they had also understood how her mind worked. Her work was more than just encryption—it was a puzzle, a reflection of her genius. But someone had gone a step further, using it as a tool to erase her from history, as if she never existed.

“J.A.R.V.I.S., pull up Dr. Mercer’s last few communications. Focus on her encrypted files,” Tony murmured. “Something in there will connect the dots.”

“Pulling them up now, sir,” J.A.R.V.I.S. replied, displaying Dr. Mercer’s encrypted communication logs. As Tony skimmed through them, he noted an unusual pattern. Every file had been accessed remotely, but each access came from a different geographical location. Tony’s mind pieced the puzzle together, and a sudden realization hit him like a jolt of electricity.

"Remote access, multiple locations, but there's a constant pattern of activity—a single entity coordinating these accesses." He stood up, tapping a holographic map of the world. "Whoever this is, they’ve been tracking Mercer’s work long before the murder. They’ve been waiting for the perfect moment."

"Indeed, sir. I’ve also found a link between the IP addresses used in accessing Dr. Mercer’s files and a high-profile contract between Vanguard Industries and Armstrong International," J.A.R.V.I.S. reported.

Tony’s fingers flew over the table. “That’s it. These companies weren’t just competitors—they were the perfect stage for a larger operation. This wasn’t about killing Dr. Mercer—it was about controlling the innovation. Whoever Shade is, they’ve been manipulating the entire landscape of tech research for years. And this was their first public strike.”

The Pattern of the Murders Tony stared at the timeline of the other victims: Dr. Aaron Fielding, Dr. Claire Xu, and several others. Each had their unique contributions to tech, and each had their own invention turned into a weapon of destruction. But Tony was looking for something more—something that connected the victims beyond their brilliance.

He narrowed his focus on the gap between the murders: two weeks, almost exactly, between each death. Each killing tied to the release of a groundbreaking research paper or the unveiling of a major tech breakthrough. It was no coincidence. Shade wasn’t just killing inventors. They were controlling the release of the most significant discoveries in tech history, manipulating the very pace of progress.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., cross-reference the dates of each murder with major tech conferences and patent applications. I want to know if these deaths coincide with the unveiling of anything big."

The AI complied, and a moment later, a surprising result appeared: Each murder had been perfectly timed to coincide with the release of a major patent or announcement from a different tech giant. Not just any patents, though—these were patents for projects on the brink of reshaping the future. Quantum computing, artificial intelligence, neuroprosthetics. But there was something else—each of the patents had involved either Vanguard or Armstrong in some capacity.

"These companies aren’t just on the periphery," Tony muttered, deep in thought. "They're at the core of every major breakthrough. And Shade is systematically eliminating the minds behind them. They’re controlling the flow of the future, and their weapon of choice is murder."

The True Enemy Tony leaned in, zooming in on one specific name that had been recurring across all his investigations: Orion Ventures. This shell company had provided the resources, funding, and materials for both Vanguard and Armstrong. Tony had suspected that something was off about them, but now the truth was becoming clearer: Orion Ventures was acting as the intermediary between the legitimate tech world and the underground criminal syndicates, like Legion. Legion wasn’t just an arms dealer network—it was a resource broker for black-market tech, and their reach extended far deeper than Tony had initially thought.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., trace the financials of Orion Ventures. See who’s been pulling the strings behind it," Tony ordered.

Moments later, J.A.R.V.I.S. displayed the intricate financial web. A series of shell corporations led back to an individual with a surprisingly low profile: Rafael Sorrentino. The name was a whisper in the corridors of both the criminal underworld and the highest echelons of tech—part entrepreneur, part mercenary, Sorrentino had a reputation for being able to make problems disappear. He was the perfect figure to orchestrate this covert war on innovation.

Tony smirked, leaning back. "So this isn’t just some rogue killer, is it? It’s a carefully orchestrated conspiracy, a tech war waged by a criminal mastermind with a network of corrupt corporations and mafia connections. Shade is just a pawn in the game."

But Tony wasn’t done yet. There was still something off about the way the murders had unfolded—something that didn’t add up.

“J.A.R.V.I.S., analyze the nanobot data again. I’ve been thinking…” Tony murmured as he stared at the data on Dr. Claire Xu’s death. “The bots weren’t just designed for a lethal purpose. They were programmed to replicate and adapt. This kind of technology doesn’t just exist on the black market, it’s the product of cutting-edge medical research—research that comes from labs like Fielding’s, Mercer’s, and Xu’s.”

"Indeed, sir," J.A.R.V.I.S. replied. "The nanobots found in Dr. Xu’s bloodstream were derived from a patented technology created by Vanguard Industries, but the modification was done with an advanced understanding of bioengineering. The code used to reprogram them could only have come from one source: Rafael Sorrentino himself."

Tony’s eyes widened. "Sorrentino’s the one who's been engineering these tech deaths. He’s been pulling the strings all along. Shade’s not the endgame. Sorrentino’s the one orchestrating the tech murder syndicate, using his pawns to eliminate the tech world’s best and brightest."

Tony stood up, pacing back and forth. "Sorrentino wants to control the flow of technology, not just steal it. He’s eliminating the minds who could stand in his way. But there's one thing he’s underestimated: me."

Japan's synthesized singing sensation Hatsune Miku turns 16

CHIBA

Hatsune Miku has always been 16 years old and worn long aqua ponytails.

She is Japan's most famous Vocaloid — a computer-synthesized singing voice software that, in her case, comes with a virtual avatar.

Legions of fans are celebrating the 16th anniversary of Miku's Aug. 31, 2007, release with events including a virtual exhibition and songwriting to showcase her standard high-pitched, cutesy voice. For sale are a special Seiko watch and a series of dolls in the character's likeness.

The Vocaloid’s hits have been widely shared online, including on Miku’s own official YouTube channel, which has drawn 2.5 million subscribers. She has CDs and DVDs out and video games focused on fun rhythms co-produced with Sega, as well as cosmetic products plastered with her name and famous manga artists drawing portraits of her for T-shirts.

On Friday, thousands of people packed a concert hall in a Tokyo suburb to watch their virtual idol dance and sing while accompanied by human musicians.

The audience bobbed colorful light sticks in time to the music, with some people dressed like the doe-eyed Miku. As laser beams flashed about, the cheering crowd, who knew the songs and the choreographed moves by heart, performed them in unison. A human-size hologram of Miku was projected at the center of a dark stage as though she was really there.

“I love the way her voice doesn’t sound human,” Koyo Mikami, 16, said while attending the event at Makuhari Messe Convention Center with a friend. Both boys wore kimonos featuring large images of Miku.

Miku's voice was synthesized based on the voice of Saki Fujita, a human singer, actor and voice actor.

The Vocaloid software application works on both Windows and Mac computers by taking inputs of melody and Japanese language lyrics and outputting the music with Miku as the vocalist. Edits like adding vibrato are as easy as double-clicking. Although various versions are available, the latest official Crypton package sells for 16,500 yen ($110).

Miku is 158 centimeters tall (5-foot-2) and weighs 42 kilograms (93 pounds), is perpetually 16 years old, and favors songs with tempos between 70 and 150 beats per minute, according to Crypton.

Whether being 16 makes a technology outdated or a classic is up to the beholder. While Hatsune Miku, whose name translates to “first note from the future,” pioneered a genre, many other Vocaloids are now on the market. The technology has advanced since Miku’s early days, with all kinds of voices and features available.

The voice synthesizer software has been featured in more than 100,000 songs, performed in 3D concerts in Los Angeles and Hong Kong, and inspired countless works of art.

Hatsune Miku owes her reign as the “It Girl” of the digital era to the participatory nature of Japan's manga, animation and pop music culture, according to Benjamin Boas, author of “From Cool Japan to Your Japan.” Instead of strictly guarding their intellectual property, publishers and other copyright holders encourage fan participation, he said.

Unlike Mickey Mouse, Super Mario and other copyright-protected characters, Hatsune Miku was offered as open-source software, with a Creative Commons license in the West that allows people to more freely use and distribute the content they make with the software.

“Miku’s success was always about the fan community and the ability for fans to become all Miku’s producers at once," said Boas, whom the Japanese government named as the country’s Cool Japan Ambassador, a symbolic honor.

"As long as that community is alive, I see a future for Miku.”

Creators who make music with Vocaloids are called “Vocalo-P” in Japan, with the “p” standing for “producer.” Some have gone on to become superstars in Japan, including the duo Yoasobi and singer Kenshi Yonezu.

People are also having fun with various voices for Vocaloids. Among the recent performances shared with a frenzy online is an AI version of Frank Sinatra doing a rendition of “YMCA,” a 1978 hit by the Village People, never performed on record by the legendary crooner.

Hiroyuki Itoh, chief executive of Crypton Future Media, which developed Hatsune Miku and is based in the northern Japanese city of Sapporo, said creating a character to go with the voice software was part of making the program user-friendly.

“We wanted to make it easy to use for amateurs who want to make music as a hobby,” he said. “Some people can’t sing very well, and here you have a 16-year-old girl singing your song.”

There are no plans to end Miku's perpetual adolescence or to age her beyond 16.

“We will do our best as a company to make sure Hatsune Miku will continue to be loved by the people," Itoh said.

Appmon and Ghost Game’s respective takes on “the near future”

(I may make a more expansive post on this if I remember to do so when Ghost Game finishes up, since right now I’m writing this with incomplete information.)

Appmon and Ghost Game have a lot in common, but one particular thing is that they both take place in approximately the same time period. Other Digimon series had either implicitly or explicitly taken place in around the exact same time they aired (with 02 being the only one to explicitly take place later than its airing date, but only by two years). Appmon and Ghost Game, on the other hand, are explicitly speculative, with Appmon taking place in 2045 (hinted by Haru’s opening blurb every episode, but with the precise year confirmed by the calendar layout in Appmon episode 13), and Ghost Game prominently making use of “7G”, which, assuming the current rate of mobile network development, would also put it at approximately the 2040s.

Other than the development of AI, one of Appmon’s biggest recurring themes is the prevalence of the Internet of Things (IoT), or, in other words, “that thing where you hook everything up to the Internet beyond reason to the point where something going wrong in the network causes everything to go haywire”. In fact, one might be surprised to learn that Appmon’s predictions of tech development are rather grounded in reality, including the problems with IoT prevalence, the idea of an AI-manned city, Pepper robots (referred to as “Sugar” in-series)...even the 2045 prediction is based on one by Ray Kurzweil, who’s of course our namesake for Katsura Rei.

Ghost Game’s view of the future is a little more aggressively speculative, since it relies on the assumption we’ll have developed standard commercial use holograms by then. Compared to Appmon’s predictions, the concept of 3D projection holograms that can be out in the open air has been a bit difficult to predict, because they involve dealing with that pesky thing called light physics. (Current “holograms” are usually just 2D projections, or at least require something like smoke or a glass screen to “catch” the light; moreover, to reach the level of application that’s seen in Ghost Game, the technology would have to be made affordable enough for everyone to use it, instead of being used as an industry specialty.) Given that, Appmon’s kind of didactic “let’s talk about technology!” theme isn’t as upfront, and it seems to be more of a backdrop than upfront and center, but it’s only natural that there is some overlap, and Kiyoshirou outright namedrops the concept of IoT in Ghost Game episode 5 (in an episode with a premise that wouldn’t be out of place in Appmon).

On the other hand, Ghost Game seems to be taking more of a sociological/cultural angle, and interviews have touched on the concept of social media and communication quite a bit; you can already see this with with the prevalence of different communication methods for different parts of life (LINE, Twitter, and 2chan archetypes already making their appearance), their roles in casual communication and rumor spreading, and Ruli being more of a “casual” social media influencer than Astra’s content creation-focused AppTubing. This is also tied into the theme of Digimon coming from a way of life very different from that of humans, meaning that their interactions with humans will naturally be communicated through those outlets. Social media was covered somewhat in Appmon episodes 27 and 41 in regards to social media drama, but it wasn’t as pervasive of a concept as we’re seeing in Ghost Game -- so in other words, there’s definitely a distinct angle each series is taking, but there’s also some overlap due to the fact both are being speculative about real tech issues and how they may impact society from here on out.

[i-love-sweet-william]

here have another Dream Post

I had a dream in which Will is an improperly installed (or rather, he's installed just fine but his external equipment is not) AI hologram friend. y'know, for little friendless losers like young Mike Wheeler. whose parents are concerned for his social skills.

Robin is the AI who helps guide/monitor the installation process btw even tho Robin and Will are computer programs, they're still gay af. and when Will grows up he's gonna cause Mike many emotional struggles.

(I'm telling you that bit about her preprogrammed self because there's a Teeny Tiny Baby angst scene of Will trying to contact her without internet and being sad that "she isn't real", at least for the moment. but he knows she's still out there)

anyway. so Robin's the program used to find the right AI friend, and gives step by step instructions on how to prepare the house/room, but unfortunately she can't physically force a user to do it right. and Mike's parents did not do it right, but still clicked OK.

during his setup (setup wizard lmao) Will gets a lot of basic info on Mike, has his resolution/size adjusted for onscreen and when projected, has Mike organize his interests (he likes everything on the list, but Mike's chosen order affects what Will wants to do more frequently), just a bunch of shit they can do without a projection....so they don't know shit's missing until Robin is already long gone

without any incoming data about.....literally anything, Will has nowhere to project himself, and nothing to interact with. he's not "scared" or anything, just wondering where everything is. since he can still see and interact with the computer screen, he spends a little time just....opening menus left and right searching for the connections/applications he needs, thinking maybe something is disabled or named wrong or something simple like that. he knows it's an external thing because he's perfectly functional inside the computer

meanwhile, Mike's just sitting like this watching this chibi avatar nyoom through shit that his brain can't even begin to read before the next window opens and Will has to fuckin. be like netflix and ask if Mike's still there because the cursor hasn't moved in years

(they do eventually get it all working, and altho there's brief angst with hands going through each other, it's quickly forgotten when Mike finds out that Will's hologram isn't just for his body. he needs all the sensors and shit so he can tell what objects are around him and can make his own copy to interact with, like for dinosaur toys, or paper and crayons, and even things that don't exist. if Will can find/generate a 3D model for it, he can project it)

spoiler alert: by the end of the au, Will has a human/cyborg body (I dunno how much mechanical shit is required before someone counts as a cyborg). but as to whether all his memories transfer intact........well. who knows

CHAPTER 1

Lesson 1: INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY

Empowerment Technology or E-Tech often deals with the use of different technologies such as mobile phones, telephone, computer and other devices to locate, save, communicate and to inform.

• ICT is the technology required for information processing, in particular, the use of electronic computers, communication devices and software applications to convert, store, protect, process, transmit and retrieve information from anywhere, anytime.

EMERGING TECHNOLOGY

Emerging technology is a term generally used to describe a new technology, but it may also refer to the continuing development of an existing technology; it can have slightly different meaning when used in different areas, such as media, business, science, or education.

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions. ... The ideal characteristic of artificial intelligence is its ability to rationalize and take actions that have the best chance of achieving a specific goal.

Robotics is a branch of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.

Biometrics are a way to measure a person's physical characteristics to verify their identity. These can include physiological traits, such as fingerprints and eyes, or behavioral characteristics, such as the unique way you'd complete a security-authentication puzzle.

Quantum cryptography is the science of exploiting quantum mechanical properties to perform cryptographic tasks. The best known example of quantum cryptography is quantum key distribution which offers an information-theoretically secure solution to the key exchange problem.

Computer-aided translation, also referred to as machine-assisted translation or machine-aided human translation, is the use of software to assist a human translator in the translation process.

A 3D hologram is defined as a 3D projection that exists freely in space and is visible to everyone without the need for 3D glasses.

Virtual reality (VR) refers to a computer-generated simulation in which a person can interact within an artificial three-dimensional environment using electronic devices, such as special goggles with a screen or gloves fitted with sensors.

Wonder (Part 2)

part two kids! featuring my other oc as well

Wonder gets an update. 

Even without the threat of becoming an app, and with the generally increased freedom of being in McDuck Labs, Wonder still felt closed off. There was nothing she wanted more than to go and actually experience what she saw videos and pictures of, and her questions and curiosity only increased as the days and weeks went by. She had learned and had grown more, but there were so many variables that couldn’t be accounted for, how much she still hadn’t been able to experience for herself. Having her questions answered was nice, but there’s only so much she could ask.  

“Dr. Gearloose?” Wonder asked quietly, not wanting to disturb him too much from his concentration, but it looked like he had spaced off in the middle of a schematic. She considered following up with asking him when he last slept, but he responded.

“Yes, Wonder? I’m a little busy right now,” he replied, tapping his pencil on the blue paper. Truthfully, he could use a distraction from the block he had.

“Oh, nevermind then. I can ask later,” she said, pulling up the queue of ocean videos she had. “Just another silly question, I guess.”

“Your questions are only occasionally silly,” Gyro turned to face her, tossing the pencil into a cup. “What do you want to know today?”

Wonder took down the queue, focusing her camera on Gyro. It was the only way she could establish eye contact. Well, not really. She activated her rudimentary hologram program. Wonder hadn’t used it since she was back at Waddle and desperate to move around. The avatar she had crafted herself was a greenfinch, but the light source made it blue and a little pixelated. She had told Gyro about the capabilities she had been programmed with, as well as ones she adopted from other Waddle programs and what she had developed herself, including the hologram application. But after weeks of only dealing with her as a computer, Gyro still looked a little taken aback to see her like that and almost physically there as the hologram settled in 3D space, sitting on a chair - not really sitting but projecting that they were.

“How would I...How would you - Do you know how to make a full, life-size body?” Wonder stuttered out. “It’s not that I’m ungrateful for the computing system and everything you’ve gone out of your way to do for me, but-”

“It’s starting to get small again, isn’t it?” Gyro interjected. The hologram nodded. “And you want to be able to actually learn things first hand so you don’t have to keep asking questions.”

The hologram nodded again. “I know it’s a selfish thing to ask. You have all your other projects for your job, only so much grant money, and I could always just get a RAM and processor upgrade instead - that might help.”

“You’ve been here for weeks now, and you underestimate me? I thought you knew better,” Gyro replied with a shrug. “We’ll start schematics for it soon. It’ll be a technological marvel, honestly, and if it works, who knows the other possibilities we’ll have with the tech that gets developed.”

“With what tech?” The hologram tilted its head. Gyro stared at her like it was the most obvious question in the world.

“That’s a silly question,” Gyro said, pulling out a blank sheet of blue panning paper from a drawer. “Your next upgrade, Wonder, obviously. A whole body with the specifications of your current computing system, but we’ll probably expand that too.”

“Really? You’ll do it?” Wonder exclaimed, the hologram leaping from the chair. “Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!”

The hologram lunged forward, arms outstretched to wrap around Gyro’s legs, but phased halfway through before pulling back sheepishly. The thank you hug would have to wait until she was corporeal.

---

It had taken months of research, tests, midnights and cups of coffee, but Wonder’s body was finished. Based completely off her hologram and real-life proportions and other biometrics on greenfinches in her age group, if Gyro and Fenton hadn’t compiled her hardware and made her feathers themselves, they wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the android and a person. Well, the lack of breathing was a good sign, but it wasn’t on and Wonder hadn’t been uploaded to it. Everything had been taken into account to make her look as lifelike as possible, but now the only thing left was to start everything up.

“Okay, the last diagnostic has cleared, we’re all set you two,” Fenton said, looking over at Gyro and Wonder’s screen from his tablet. Gyro had just finished attaching the cables and wires between the body and computer and quickly made sure they were secure, as well as the old shirt they had put on the new body until they could get her proper clothing.

“Ready, Wonder?” Gyro asked. The response was a quickly chirped yes, and he nodded. “Initiate download and system start-up.”

“See you soon,” Fenton said and started the program to get the body running as Wonder’s screen went dim, her files leaving down and out through the cords. A few minutes later, there was a ping, and Wonder’s eyes fluttered open. She blinked a few times, calibrating her nervous system and senses, and then let her eyes focus on the lab, then on Gyro and Fenton, who stood apprehensively over her head.

“Hello,” she whispered, vocal cords not yet fully warmed up. Gyro grinned triumphantly that so far everything was working, masking relief that Fenton fully wore on his face. After she felt more confident in her limbs Wonder slowly sat up on the table. Gyro and Fenton quickly moved to support her, unsure of how stable she was just yet.

“Careful, Wonder,” Gyro warned. “Don’t move unless you’re completely sure. You took a while to make, so let’s not injure ourselves.”

Wonder nodded, and carefully swung her legs off the table, using the two as support as she dropped down to the cold floor of the lab. Her eyes went wide at the sensation - her first feeling of cold!

“The floor’s cold,” she said, excitement in her voice. Fenton laughed.

“Well, her nervous system is functioning,” he said. “Sorry the first thing you felt wasn’t the best.”

“She’ll have plenty of first things, Fenton,” Gyro said. Wonder held his forearm, taking a moment note the feeling of feathers, before trying her first step. She paused at the tug of cords at her neck, which Fenton quickly took care of. Once she was untethered, Wonder continued, latching onto Gyro’s arm as she slowly moved a few feet, stumbling once or twice before she felt confident enough to let go and walk on her own. Fenton excitedly tapped Gyro’s arm as they watched, grin wide as Gyro looked on in approval, monitoring her limb adaptation. Wonder turned to face them with a wide smile - a little goofy and ever so slightly lopsided - and ran to them, tripping at the new mode of movement as she launched into them in a hug.

“Oof!” was a conjoined sound of surprise as she either ran into stomach or knees, hands reaching to support and pat her back in return. Gyro let himself smile a little, knowing how long she’d wanted to do this.

“Well, how do you like it? Everything working well?” Gyro asked, kneeling down to check her ocular reflexes with a small light. She nodded - her pupils dilated normally, good - but shivered.

“Everything is great, still getting used to the cold though,” Wonder replied, wrapping her arms around her middle, but enjoying the feeling of old cotton and her very own feathers under her fingertips. “But it’s wonderful to feel real things!”  

“It is a little chilly down here, isn’t it?” Fenton responded. “Let’s look into getting you a coat until you’re used to things.”

“And probably real clothes too,” Gyro said, looking around. He saw Manny enter the room, luckily. “Manny, give me your lab coat.”

Manny looked over - he had been aware of everything happening that day, and had been put in charge of other lab duties - and tapped out a reply of ‘why?’ Gyro stared at him.

“Just give me your coat, Manny. It’s for Wonder,” Gyro explained. With a shrug, Manny took it off and draped it over her shoulders. She tucked her arms into the sleeves and found it comically huge on her. The sleeve dangled below her hands and the coat dragged behind her by at least a foot. Gyro started to roll up the sleeves to the wrist. “Well, it’ll do for now.”

“I know we want to hold off on introducing her to everyone,” Fenton said, “but maybe we should get Penelope involved.”

“Why? We’re perfectly capable of taking care of Wonder,” Gyro replied, looking at him incredulously. Wonder had meandered over to Manny to properly thank him for the coat and to shake his hoof. “I don’t see why we have to involve that know-it-all.”

“I mean obviously we’re capable, but Penelope knows clothing better than we do,” he explained. “Also, we’d look a little creepy shopping in a misses section of a store with no one with us.”

“That’s actually a good point,” Gyro conceded with a sigh. “You go get her, explain everything, and I’ll finish up the tests on Wonder to make sure everything is going well.”

Fenton nodded, and with a quick wave to Wonder, headed upstairs.

---

“So, you’re telling me that you and Gyro essentially adopted an AI, gave it a body, and now you want me to buy them clothing?” Penelope asked during the elevator ride down. Fenton nodded.

“Well, we haven’t adopted her exactly, if anything she’s almost like another intern that Gyro took on,” Fenton said. “But I know he definitely cares more than he lets on. Like with Lil Bulb. Also, I just helped with her, and while yes, I am concerned with her welfare, this isn’t exactly a joint thing. Besides, saying it like that makes it sound like Gyro and I are in a relationship, which we’re not.”

“Right,” the hen replied. “Well, I’m willing and able to buy them clothes. But on one condition.”

“What’s that?”

“I’m their aunt and/or godmother. No exceptions,” she stipulated. “None of my other friends have kids for me to spoil yet, and I have the need to be someone’s cool lesbian aunt.”

“Deal. You’ll have to clear it with Gyro, but I think he’ll be resistant,” Fenton agreed, running a hand through his hair. She shrugged.

“I’ll buy them clothing anyway, but even if he doesn’t agree I’m going to assume the role.”

The lift stopped and the doors opened to the lab. Wonder was fiddling with a puzzle cube while Gyro monitored her motor functions and visual processing. The two looked up at them - Gyro with defeated disdain and Wonder with curiosity. Penelope paused a second before walking forward. “Hello, Gyro.”

“Penelope,” he greeted, deadpan, placing his clipboard down as he turned to face her. “I assume Fenton told you everything?”

“You assume correctly,” she replied, stopping in front of Wonder, and crouched down so she was eye to eye with her, and extended out a hand. “Hello there. I’m Penelope.”

Wonder took her hand and gave it a gentle shake. “I’m Wonder. It’s very nice to meet you.”

“It’s nice to meet you too, Wonder,” Penelope smiled. “Now, Fenton asked me to go and get you a wardrobe so you’re not running around in some old lab coat. Any preferences?”

“Not that I can think of. But I love the color blue!” Wonder answered. Penelope nodded, stepping back to get a better look at her in terms of sizing and what color range of blue would match her feathers best.

“I can work with that,” the hen said, very self-assured before turning back to Gyro and Fenton. “I’ll be back in two hours. Also, Gyro, whether you like it or not, I’m her aunt now. I was going to have you agree to that, but now you don’t have a choice. Sorry. Ta-ta now.”

While Gyro sputtered in frustration at her assumption of kinship, Penelope patted Wonder on the head and made her way back up.

Two hours later, Penelope arrived back in the lab. While Gyro and Fenton expected maybe two bags at most, she arrived with at least several, most of them being from Toulouse’s boutique. Fenton’s eyes went wide at the bags as she set them on a worktable, looking very triumphant.

“How much did you-”

“Well, I said I would get her a wardrobe and I did,” Penelope said. “She’s covered until next season, then we’ll look into fall and winter clothing.”

“Isn’t this excessive?” Gyro asked, Wonder grabbing a bag and peering into the contents. There was a mix of different clothing articles, in different shades of blue and just as many fabrics. Penelope looked at him confused.

“That sounds impossible. Like I wasn’t going to get her a whole closet worth of things. Besides, I don’t trust your or Fenton’s fashion sense,” Penelope replied. “But if it makes you feel better, one of the bags is a full outfit for today, plus accessories and pyjamas.”

She plucked a bag from the pile and handed it to Wonder, who gasped in excitement, grabbing it with a thank you and running to the bathroom to change.

“I hate to say it, but thank you, Penelope,” Gyro said. “I know Wonder appreciates it.”

“Not a problem.” Penelope picked up a folder she had slipped into one of the bags. “I also arranged for a birth certificate and adoption papers to be made for her. The paperwork is all here. Please fill it out and have it on my desk no later than Friday. I’d rather have her in the system sooner than later so we can get a paper trail of her existence going, albeit falsified.”

Gyro flipped open the folder - there was a blank birth certificate and other state-related paperwork concerning Wonder and her life. He decided he didn’t want to know how Penelope got a hand on these or how she planned on falsifying the records to prove Wonder’s existence.

“I’m a good secretary,” she said, unprompted but as though she read his thoughts, but before he could answer she turned towards the bathroom. “Wonder? You ready?”

A second later, Wonder came out, shirt and lab coat folded in her arms. Instead, she was wearing a robin’s egg blue pleated skirt and a light blue short-sleeved button-up, a necklace with a little strawberry charm, and a pair of dark blue high-top sneakers. Penelope cooed, gently clapping her hands together.

“Aw, Wonder you look great, kiddo!” Fenton encouraged, taking the coat and shirt from her. She smiled, ducking her head shyly. “Someone get a camera, we need to document Wonder’s first day!”

Manny tapped out a quick response, grabbing his phone from the counter and motioning for the two of them to pose. Penelope pushed Gyro over. “Go on, you’re her guardian too. You should be in there.”

“I was heading over, Glider,” he snipped, forcefully adjusting his vest as he made his way to Wonder’s side, Lil Bulb following close behind, hopping up onto her shoulder. Wonder looked at Gyro and Fenton and smiled. Gyro, strangely gentle, smiled back, and in a fatherly way ruffled the feathers on her head, just as Manny snapped the picture.

Meeting Scrooge happened earlier than either of them planned, only a few hours after Penelope had met Wonder. They hadn’t expected him to come down to the labs anytime soon, but apparently, he had been curious as to why Gyro hadn’t interrupted any board meetings with a new invention recently. Of course, Wonder was the first thing he noticed when he came down to the lab to question them.

“Gyro, Fenton, why is there a child in your very dangerous labs? And where are her parents?” Scrooge asked, flatly, immediately going to one of the few obvious solutions. “Gyro, I thought we agreed on no necromancy.”

“She’s not a reanimated corpse,” Gyro quickly explained. “While I certainly could reanimate reconnected tissue, this isn’t the case.”

“Technically she is animated though! But not how you think?” Fenton added, nervous.

“Can you two stop with the riddles, please? What does that even mean?” Scrooge ordered. The two looked at each other and then back at Wonder. She walked over to him.

“I’m Wonder,” she introduced herself, extending a hand. “I’m an Artificial Intelligence program that Dr. Gearloose and Mr. Crackshell-Cabrera gave a physical form to. It’s very nice to meet you, Mr. McDuck.”

It was a blunt explanation, and it still left Scrooge confused. Blankly, he shook her hand. “It’s nice to meet you as well. Can I have a word with those two privately for a moment?”

Wonder nodded, grabbing Manny with a plea to come play chess in another section of the lab with her, and Scrooge turned to the two in confusion and irritation.

“Further explanation, now. And spare me the science talk - layman’s terms. I’m not even sure what an “artificial intelligence program” is.”

The explanation of what artificial intelligence was, then the full, nothing withheld explanation about Wonder took twenty minutes. Gyro and Fenton pulled up their research and her tests results: 

“Wonder is essentially a 14-year-old finch in every way except she’s made of carbon steel and synthetic feathers.” 

“See? She’s just like a human person, but smarter.” 

“Mr. McDuck, imagine the biotechnical possibilities we have access to with the progress we made making her a body.”

“She’s so much safer here than at Waddle. Her program is far too advanced to be in that mess of a company.”

Pinching the bridge of his beak, Scrooge held up a hand to stop the two of them from continuing. Fenton’s worry was clear on his face, but Gyro was unreadable, save for a hard stare. “I get it, you two. Waddle doesn’t know she’s here?”

“No. We made sure of that and we monitor Waddle’s search attempts,” Gyro said. Waddle Tech had made a big to-do about the Wonder Assistant program going missing from their labs, with a full, large-scale search and questioning. But in the past month, it had died down since there had been no leads. Fenton had made sure that the company firewalls were at the highest level of protection to assure no probing attempts were made. Scrooge sighed.

“And where is Wonder going to live now? Do either of you have an idea about how to raise a child? She can’t stay here in the lab,” Scrooge asked. “And what about records with the state for her?”

“Penelope gave us paperwork to fill out. Birth certificate, adoption papers, everything,” Fenton replied, but then lowered his head, resting it on his hand. “Where is she going to stay? I don’t have any room in my house.”

“Obviously with me. I have the financial means and the spare room in my apartment,” Gyro said. Scrooge raised an eyebrow. “Besides, I’ve already filled out most of the adoption papers.  And while, yes, my experience with children is...limited... it's not rocket science, and Fenton is good with kids. He can help if I need it.”

“Which I am more than capable of doing!”

“Not to mention, I’m one of the few people who can take care of her machinery and knows how,” Gyro continued over Fenton. “It’s the only option that makes sense. She’d be safe in my care.”

“Gyro, it’s not that I don’t think you’re capable but -” Scrooge paused, looking at the hardset, determined gaze of Gyro and the half-pleading look on Fenton’s, and sighed. “Fine. But one of us who knows about Wonder will check in on her and you whenever we please. She’s a child, and needs to be treated and raised as such, understand?”

“Fair enough,” Gyro agreed with a nod.

“And Fenton, make sure he does that,” Scrooge said. Fenton nodded wholeheartedly. Scrooge smiled lightly. “Don’t let me down, you two. Now I think I should like a proper introduction to your ward.”
