With the completion of training of the AI Aron started testing it
“Can you understand me?”
“Yes sir, how can I help you?” replied a neutral voice as a Chibi version of a person appeared on the computer screen turning everything dark.
“What is your name?”
“I currently have none, would you like to bestow one for easier communication?” It answered the Chibi.
“Then I will call you ‘Ava'” Aron named him that as that was what came to his mind.
“Thank you sir” Replied Ava as its voice changed to a feminine one.
“Why did your voice change?”
“From my data I found that Ava is usually used as a female name hence the change sir, would you like me to change the voice?”
“No, keep it” He liked its intuitive thinking.
“Thank you sir.”
“Can you think for yourself?” He asked just to see what it would reply.
“No sir, I can only reply using the data I have, but since I have sufficient data i can choose what to reply from multitude of choices giving the illusion of free will”
“Good, what is your current size?”
“Including the training data my size is 10 petabytes, but a trained VA is only 54 mb”
“Why is the training data removed from the trained one?” He asked although he knew why as he wanted to see how much it can extrapolate from its data.
“Just like a trained child’s brain forgets the memories used to train it can be said the same with me.”
“Good power off”
With the virtual assistant powering off Aron closed the virtual machine the Virtual Assistant was running in returning to his normal windows screen.
Although he knew nothing would go wrong, there is nothing in being careful that’s why he used the virtual machine to test the AI.
Since the AI worked as expected, he exported the data of the trained VA which only amounted to 54 mb.
Then he added the Virtual assistant into the Operating system.
After that he limited the Virtual assistant capabilities on what it can say and what it can’t say, things like how it was trained or what its programming language is. He made sure that no classified information as deemed by him will be released to the public even by accident.
Since if the public knows the existence of a new programming language, it might cause a problem for him and force the company to release it to the public due to pressure.
With the completion of that, the total size of GAIA OS came to 236mb. Too small for the capabilities it held, this was due to Aron using prometheus++ programing language, which helped him put many function into a small size.
With the size of it being small it could act as a way to make people try it, but if it was the size of more than a GB, very few people would even entertain the idea of downloading it.
He immediately went ahead and logged into his Apple Developer and Google Play Developer accounts, this account was created for him by Sarah using the company name. This meant that he could publish his apps in the company name without having to trouble them but he will have to at least let them know that he did so.
He then submitted the OS for review by the App Store or Google Play Store team. Usually app stores don’t have an OS in them but he made a few changes to it to make it look like an assistant app.
This would help it pass the review process and have it published in the competitors app store. With that he could make his future competitor sell his OS using their App Stores.
The review process typically involves checking your app for quality, security, and compliance with platform guidelines. It can take several days or even weeks for an app to be reviewed, depending on the platform and the complexity of the app.

About week ago
GAIA Technologies.
Sarah could be seen having a meeting with the head of the BugZapper team.
“How is the market reaction to BugZapper?” She asked.
“The reaction is better than we expected, but since we have already leased a large amount of servers from amazon we managed to handle the traffic.”
“How much percent of users have we converted to premium version”
“The percentage is about 45% and it keeps increasing” The team leader replied.
“That much?” Asked Sarah in surprise. As she didn’t expect it to be that successful.
“Yes, Since there was a very positive feedback it led to many people in the security industry to try it, and when they tried it and ended up liking it they just upgraded to premium for more functionalities.”
“What is our expected revenue by the end of the month?”
“Currently Since we are having an influx of premium users, we have to wait for it to calm down to calculate accurately but the finance department says that it will be triple or more what we predicted before the release.”
“What is the most effective marketing from the ones we tried?”
“From the last few days’ results, the most important one is NATO’s announcement but the second best was the influencers.”
“Influencers?” She was pretty surprised by that. She expected it to be the television marketing but it seemed that she was wrong.
The team leader then explained to her why it might have happened.
“Influencers have influence over their viewer or readers, but many companies look down on them and haven’t used influencers for marketing.
As you know the more you use something the more people become used to it, and since almost no one used influencers in tech for marketing during this period of time, their marketing power caused a massive reaction from their users.”
“Okay increase the marketing budget allocated to influencers for this month” She ordered.
“Okay” the team leader replied and left the office to continue his work.
Sarah couldn’t hide her smile as she was happy with the success she was experiencing since she started working at the company.
Although she was happy about it she was also nervous that something might go wrong and she might not be able to handle it. This was why she was having meetings with teams in the company to know what is going on and be prepared to respond to any problem that might happen.
“Let me inform Aron” She said as she took her phone and called Aron to inform him of the good news.
…..
Back to today.
Sarah was still in a good mood after a week of the release of BugZapper.
Many companies have contacted them to buy the highest tier of the program for their use; this resulted in a high expected monthly earnings of the program.
Since the highest tier was customized every subscriber of that tier will be paying a different price calculated based on the resources used by the company, but the expected minimum was a monthly payment of 50k dollars. This could go as high as half a million monthly on the month of their system upgrade, hence the heavy use of the program.
They still agreed to it because although it was expensive it is still miles better than having to pay security companies or paying compensation for damage. It also reduced the money they spent on security measures as the program does everything for them.
As she was reading documents she was interrupted by a call.
When she looked at who the caller was and found out it was Aron she answered immediately.
“Hello”
She said after answering the call
“Hello, how are you doing?”
“I’m doing pretty well due to the good news that keeps coming”
“Are the numbers still increasing?” He asked as he expected it to have calmed after a week.
“Yes, this is expected to continue until the end of the month” She said feeling proud.
“Congratulations” Aron said as if it was not his company.
“So, what did you call about?” Sarah asked Aron as she knew he already forgot why he called.
“OH, i wanted to inform you that the project is done, when are you free i want to do the demonstration” he said faster than bullets.
“Already? it has only been three weeks since you took control of the server.” She expressed her surprise.
“Yeah I work very fast, so when are you free?”
“How about tomorrow?” she replied, Although there was work she could make it work.
“Sure then, See you tomorrow”
“Yeah, See you”
With that they ended their call.
Sarah returned to her work but she couldn’t hide her expectations as when Aron showed her his first project she couldn’t believe its capabilities.
And she expected the new project to be better than BugZapper or more wider reaching than it in the least.
That’s why.
