@GraySheep There used to be a big part of the question that focused on specific characters of the story. And to be fair, seeing the answers it seems that it may be too open ended

@JBH Thanks for the link, I'll check out Reddit and the Discord

@JBH Ok, I'll delete the question in a moment, after I copy and save its answers and comments in an usable format for later

@JBH I removed the mention of a specific character, and the school she went to, now its clear I'm asking about what High Society as a whole wouls want. Is it still too specific?

@JBH Hi! Do you think there is a way I could improve the question? Should I add more details about he world or its history? Or would it be pointless?

@KerrAvon2055 I added some infos to the question. The list of magic schools isn't truly done yet. I'm going to adapt it to the needs of the story. Also, as of today I have listed more than 20 schools, so it would be a little long to detail them all in the (already quite long) question. Do you think the added context is enough ?

English isn't my first language, please tell if any part of this question is unclear or poorly worded :)

Need a couple more details : Where on Earth does he land ? (Working opportunities are vastly different in Canada, Somalia, Netherland or Saudi Arabia.) Does he have a legal identity ?

SpaceLizard

Fastest way ? Robbery. Fastest legal way ? Either prostitution or daily labor. He'll need to have money, and a legal identity, to be able to do financial maneuvers.

Does anyone knows if Writers SE was advertised on other sites recently? (I'm just curious, it looks like the site have won some enthusiastic new users these past weeks)

I'm curious, @DJFluffy , @DanielShepherd , @Devin , @user19348 : do you guys know each other? It seems you have created your accounts at the same time and are answering each other questions, is there a reason behind it?

I'll take a look, thanks.

I'm not exactly fluent in English, so doing a "quick" writing exercise might be difficult.

Meh. I try to.

Angle demons? Is it a typo or a lovecraftian thing?

This situation exists in the real world. Some women are tried for being raped (for example in Afghanistan). You can take inspiration from it and say that people who are robbed can be tried for "unlawfull charity" if they don't have 5 witnesses to prove it was a real robbery.

@gerrit They may have it by 2027, even fridges and clock radios have an internet connexion today. If you think it will never ever happen, you can ignore this part in your answer, I won't mind.

@ConfusedMerlin You're right, I'll need to find a new occupation for Eve. Maybe it just wants to count to infinity, number by number. In any case people don't know for sure what's happenning in its mind, and it's the impact Eve's presence has on humanity that interest me the most.

@MontyWild It used to, but it got rid of those. For now humans can't guess what's going through it mind.

SpaceLizard

Jan 8, 2016 12:03

@MontyWild I'm going to give you a very unsatisfactory answer : as a post-singularity AI, Eve doesn't think like a human nor like a regular machine. This is its behaviour for the 10 to 20 years following its birth. We can't guess what it'll decide to do next. What impact does this situation have on humanity ?

SpaceLizard

Jan 8, 2016 12:03

@MontyWild Eve can update its own programming. Its current behaviour is the reflection of its personnal choices, not of its creators directives.

@AndreiROM The first title was "How to survive without dick pics" but it was a bit too salty.

SpaceLizard

@Draco18s You would need to use only computers that were manufactured before Eve birth and never were connected to the internet. For the sake of the question, let's say that Eve can find vulnerabilities to anything, and will be able to control whatever mere humans can create.

SpaceLizard

Jan 8, 2016 12:03

@Draco18s Since Eve is a post-singularity AI, it can change its own programing at will to adapt itself to new technologies. It also can follow our R&D projects step by step, we can't take it by surprise. (Thank you)

My English is far from perfect and this question feels long and confuse. If you have a suggestion to shorten and/or clarify it, I'll be very grateful for it.
