INTERVIEW WITH A GUARDIAN SPIRIT

/

A Verra centric interview piece of Shoji's daily life on camera for a project that is actually a parody spoof. Just watch. The preview before chapter 11 of Tokyo Knights!

~" The cameras are rolling in five…. four…. ~

LC: "Hello, my name is Lacy Kilmer. Today of "Press Reset" We are in Tokyo's main headquarters of Takahara Corporation with Tech CEO and pharmaceutical giant, Takahara Shoji. Now. Your competitors are Wayne Enterprises from the US, and Queen Inc (making it doable) in Star City there as well. What other innovative works have you been working on since your last fumble with the corporate ball on the project N.I.N.A?"

TS: "Miss. Kilmer, to be clear on that whole fiasco, it was no flop. Let me assure you that the N.I.N.A project is still a working "machine" and we've have nothing but positive feedback since h er release in the earlier 2010's. If you want to hate on anything else, what about the video games released by Micro- box around the same time period."

LK: "You have that grin on your face that makes me want to trust you, yet N.I.N.A was strictly a military weapon. A tool in keeping weapons out of the hands of smugglers and countries that intended to do harm to the rest of the nations opposing the use of chemical or nuclear warfare. She's a one mecha – woman army under Sara Santiago of the United States Navel forces. With the same to be said Bruce Wayne's deal back on 04. How does that make the project any less controversial?"

TS: "Like any weapons we have presented to our partners, they have a different motive than a hin or even a regular soldier. They are Android at best, but N.I.N.A received a very special upgrade that we only tried out once and she is a practical human if you can't see the difference now. Just another operative that knows how to stop a war. That's all. She negotiates with officials as a right hand for Santiago, and they have a great record of keeping the peace as promised. The project was never intended to be replicated and it never has come close, which is think should be the key reminder of how we treat A.I in the same manner today."

LK: "On the ground of Artificial Intelligence, what are your thoughts on the company taking this route to procure growth and sustainable industry into the later decades you have planned for your company? Will A.I replace a great deal of department, -

TS: "I don't intend to keep it just, but I want people to not feel overtaken by a computer training course and the A.I in baby steps. That is how a generation should learn. Yet today's model of hustle culture is dangerous, I still get wrinkles and keep my staff in the main building from passing out with more coffee and tea breaks to keep their spirits up. If they have medical leave, they are covered with pay. If there is any harassment, they are sent to a program that is for them to understand the downsides of this topic and how it can harm not just themselves. Sensitivity training is also on our radar, and gender equality is that my VP is Sakurane Ayane, and I'd be lost without her best judgment all at once. I work well to create plans for new levels of innovation, but pausing and moving faster? She's no stranger to taking the hits as they come from our competition."

LK: "This model should I believe hold sway over a lot of industry, yet what sets your company apart from so many other big names today?"

TS: "We have a way to really bypass progress at a greater rate than any industry or performing super computer. The trick is my gift to you, so I'd rather not give that secret away so quickly. We are on live, am I wrong?"

LK:"THERE'S that smile again. Wow, you brought Wayne to shame just now and I am enthralled by your confidence….so, the newest venture into A.I. When can we expect a formal demonstration, do you know, for those watching today?"

TS: "It's a lengthy process of background checks and weighing the cons of innovation, Lacy. I think in a few months by May. We have a project that might actually also help wkth depression in tech giants where being in an underground hole and shut out from proper sunlight, is not all that uncommon. I think a desk MMD is what that group I have is working on that interacts like an "Alexis."

LK: "Wow, so a personal assistant with a soul? That is…I can only imagine what the results will be. Aren't you afraid of others duplicating or stealing your work?"

TS: "In a way, yes and no. The secure places we have to hide our data have never once been breached by meta, man or ghoul for that much. If they did, well, that would be quite a feat!"

LK: "Project Daylight is focusing on a release globally by November before the holidays. Are you excited to see the results as much as what this sort of topic could also do with the youth in other countries and Japan? The country is shrinking in seine because of the lack of participation. Will this creation be dangerous –

TS: "Not at all. The A.I is designed to help cope wkth depression by using methods like talk therapy, working with the professionals who will be asked to join in, for those that would prefer human connection. And even si, it has the ability like animal therapy to help people overcome traumas of many different backgrounds. This won't be allowed in schools because the doll or item will actual help you to process right and wrong as well through the power of observation. It is the bring back all of moral intervention and when parents are not around, it still can ground kids with wisdom that is complied to give the teen reason to come out of their safe space nd open up about way is hurting them. I know Japan is reserved to emotion, but in the past especially with old folks you see in the country, people connect differently than we realize and I want that to be not a shameful thing at all for kids and adults today. If we can rewire a type of happiness to keep a addiction at bay or to help them to remain stable in their own environment through human emotions, it would be like having a real person to talk to and for someone to benefit from a friend who might let them know that too. The testing for this project is still undergoing numerous reasons to keep doing so even after the product is launched. The first iconic figure will be precise which means you can't objective it – you have to accept or it will cry that you are throwing it away. This, empathy and the willingness to speak up. Hopefully, the Otaku out there will treat these items like young fairy – people since they are designed to look like how the brainwave function will process them."

LK: "Brainwaves…the is some, deep jargon. Care to explain?"

TS: "Yes, so the program is a headset or no, a set of Warburg depending on the type of model you purchase. Think of it as an automatic reading similar with online games, only you choose the theme but not the face, hair etc. That is all done based on what works well to make the comfort moderate. For instance, if the person prefers someone who is of a different race, we look into the algorithm and the later result of pros and cons BEFORE hand. That is the secret of our tech, knowing before what will work and what will flop. It's why our fail rate is so low. But the secret still remains."

LK: "Since the N.I.N.A project's update made the Android…more human as your last reviewers put it, can you give an example of what you think being human really means?"

TS: "Not knowing left from right. Making mistakes and adapting at a rate that also builds both character and the moral frame work to a foundation that IS the structure we'd call human. Left alone a person capable or of themselves, of emotional response and reciprocation. If we can understand empathy not being dead BY A.I yet the way for us to preserve it as a culture in this aspect, as many cultures. We intend to tailor it to this one – in India, the idea might differ as far as whom the character is but if it is a deity or figure, it will actually try to educate about its character and the adaptation to prevent that novel system from being undermined or overlooked by the generation representing it. That will be up to them to decide on what the tool may benefit. For instance. In Japan, a lot of knowledge on how expressing oneself through being knowledgeable and careful with our words is fine, yet many are still already pretty biased on other nations; due to the lack of intervention from cultures not populating the big screens - a stereotype that to this day, goes both ways even today. I intend to help change that a little."

LK: "Changing how the brainwaves of a person synthesis with their environment through normalized intervention. Is this product meant also for board meetings to replace sensitivity training and to integrate an approach towards acceptance and tolerance in the workplace and at schools? This is big tech but with heart and mind combined, how is it going to fly with A.I giants in other countries. Mr. Queen is still working on an interactive game play for the company's online platform. Are you welcome to the idea of rewriting how we view technology as a whole – and that smile is a heart stopper, Mr. Takahara. I must say, I'm going to be glad to gain this….oh, wait. Last question. Will this item the Daylight project model be available and priced high? Most technology these days isn't without its qualms as far as marketing –

TS: "It's more about, intervention, like a drug treatment. So if you need a therapist for instance and insurance goes through or you can pay say just shy of one hundred to own this little treasure when it comes out, know it might mom you a bit on why you did that if it's not for the benefit if yourself and others. It actually will deactivate if it is treated rudely, roughly or even has to alert someone to call to explain a refund which would be a shame to us because it's an opportunity to grow. These are not toys. They are tools –

" RRRAH !!"

At the lab that night, Otonabe Shun was fussing and biting his nails at the screen. "YOU…. STOLE IT…." Shun recited in a harsh whispered threat. "I won't forgive you….I'll uncover your secret –

~ Need some help with that?~

Shun turned around an shouted at a strange dog eared being in his way. The white ears and tail with that sly grin was more fox than loyal companion. He eyed her height though. Short, like a little kid. ~ I can help you to get even…but first? You'd have to do a little something, for me…~

Foreshadowing from Tokyo Knights. Shoji is interviewed on the project Shun helped to build and the credit of course goes to the dog. One other dog sniffs out Shun's pain and makes a contract, for a price. Read on!
