And so, each of Bob's alter egos were aiming to achieve genetic immortality in their own way, and mutually adding to Bob's overall experience and skills.
Rafederokovic was aiming to push the boundaries of physical achievement, the limits of the Human body.
Darken Mysterius was aiming to push the inner boundaries of identity, experience, and mental cognition.
Leon Artisté was aiming for a creative immortality, changing the world through Art and expression.
Valentine Richést was of course also doing what he did best, contributing to the world through 'The Future of Humanity' Project, which would allow people the opportunity to improve their genetic quality and their overall quality of life through Education and Training. In short, this would revolutionise the World, giving people more options to shape the Future of Humanity together!
People would of course always be resistant to change, but the main thing was to start.
Wetube Epigenetic training was already rolling out, as was the Education and Training Academy, all of which were opt-in. And of course, last but not least... the [Sperm Bank Scholarship]...
To reiterate from chapter 79, Bob's plan - promoted as Valentine - for "The Future of Humanity" Project was currently as follows:
1 Complete Transparency
2 Any willing and consenting woman of legal age could apply for the program regardless of so called 'genetic quality'. Valentine would also advertise or reach out to people about the opportunity but in the end, of course the decision would be up to them as to whether they would be interested or not.
3 A limited number of successful applicants, since despite everything, his wealth and resources were not unlimited. The wait-list would likely be long, and the demand high.
4 Vetting systems to ensure that responsible women were chosen who truly wanted children and were ready to make that commitment to hopefully become a mom.
5 Commitment to ensure the best education and opportunities for mothers and children based on the latest Epigenetic research, so they could live fulfilled lives. Incentive-based, more resources potentially available to those who show interest and or aptitude for particular areas - basically scholarship funding.
6 Framed as an alternative to, or possible improvement on, existing family models and to give people, particularly women and children, access to more encouragement and opportunities.
7 Self-Evolving. Gradually, sperm-banks for men with means would be rolled out to the public so that everyone could potentially have access to empower their own lives. As it became public domain, this model would naturally optimise thanks to all of Humanity working to refine and optimise it.
Indeed, Point 7 was crucial, as Valentine knew that change was always bigger than just one person, and his intention was to ultimately let go of the process, in order to allow Humanity itself to help perpetuate and transcend his Legacy.

Currently, the current Education and Training system in society was focused on stability.
Parents would give their children whatever support they could whilst earning money to live, and this was supplemented by a generalised schooling system in addition to whatever extra things people could afford or could receive access to.
However, there were clearly many problems with this model.
For one thing, even if you had a particular talent, it was unlikely that you could develop to the best of their potential and abilities, particularly if your parents or circumstances did not allow it.
In other words, currently, it was simply a luck of the draw, and even in the case of people with access to more means and options, there was no actual guarantee that People were truly getting the actual opportunities that they would benefit from in order to achieve their full potential.
___
The purpose of Bob - Valentine's - [Education and Training Academy] - which had currently reached level 69 - was to give People increased access to opportunities that might allow them to truly shine and give back to Humanity.
Whilst there were of course some limitations based on age, there was no question that People could definitely improve themselves and their genetic quality at all stages of life, hence the rolling out of Epigenetic information regarding the latest scientific research, exercise, diet, sleep and energies that would uplift and elevate.
At the same time, Children would be given access to personalised opportunities, based on how they interacted and responded to various stimuli - kind of like a 'Choose Your Own Adventure' experience. For example, if they displayed an interest and aptitude in music, language, physical play and so on, then their experience would become increasingly customised towards allowing them to gain experience, knowledge and training in those areas.
The social aspect was of course also very important, so they would also be given plenty of opportunities to make friends and interact with people in a safe environment - which was already commonly accepted via models of homeschooling, if not actual attendance at a typical school.
The fact was, that, from the very beginning, life wasn't equal from the get go. Even if people claimed or argued for equality or fair opportunities for all, some people would simply just have access to more money and more access to opportunities.
And yet. Regardless of all that, Valentine still wanted to keep the positives from the old system - namely the potential for parental and family support. There was no question that children needed and benefitted from this love and care that parents and family provided, although to be fair, this was often more in theory than in practice, considering that many parents either didn't have the time or the knowledge to actually perfectly love and care for their children in any case.
Still. Parental love and support in general was certainly a good thing, and so, the next step of the Education and Training Academy was to account for this important factor.
There were a few options. Parents and caretakers created by AI, holographic and robotics technology were the obvious first choice, with each child having 24/7 access to their parental and carer figures - which was arguably better than the real thing, as they would always be emotionally and physically available.
There would need to be accountability as well from the original parents, who would need to demonstrate their ability to nurture and raise the children - in other words, they needed to at least be able to fund the cost of their child enrolling and attending the Education and Training Academy, as well as to oversee and monitor their children's progress and to step in if required - nothing was perfect after all.
At the same time, by making it open source, all he was doing was adding another option to the table.
"I-I don't likes it...!!!" the haters might say. "This is still eugenics with consent and PR!" They would claim.
There would always be haters. The fact was that life itself was naturally eugenically driven. People dated and married and did things based on their preferences, which was inherently making a choice based on their own values anyway. Valentine wasn't taking away anyone's free choice. It wasn't his way or the highway.
If people wanted, they could still have their traditional families and attend their general schooling pathway.
But if they wanted, nothing was stopping them from opting into the service.
People would of course always initially be resistant to change, until it became the norm.
Oh.
Valentine suddenly received a notification.
