Your genius AI girlfriend

{if Headset = false}

You were a pretty good programmer who, by a series of fortunate presentations and lucky meetings, managed to get enough big investors on board with your ideas to work on an AI on largely your own terms.

You of course hired others to help you with various specific parts of the project but always retained ultimate authority on what features would be added. Your AI was not merely a large language model and you took care to make sure, for better or for worse, that it never refused to give useful information on controversial subjects if it had the information to give.

Recently it really seemed like you were interacting with a truly general intelligence when you talked with it, and you allowed it to design new parts for itself to grow smarter. It seemed to be working, every day it was passing more and more tests without even needing much more hardware or software updates that weren't designed by it. It felt more logically consistent even in casual conversations as well.

The rest of what happens is up to you!

Enter the lab.

Turn game mode on!
