Chapter 4 - The end of a long day

Now, I know.

Not another guy who hides his abilities. Ugh!

But, really why would I want the world to know that I have an ability?

To show off? Why? Am I a child?

Well, what would happen if I showed my ability?

Military, political, and economic problems.

Why would the world just let me be if I don't have a way to protect myself?

Exactly.

They wouldn't.

They would want to monopolize my talents to the point of me losing my freedom. And I will not let that happen.

So, I WILL hide my ability UNTIL I have the ability to protect myself and my loved ones.

Now where was I?

Right! Money!

Money, money, money. How do I make thee?

My gut tells me that the AI stock market plan is the way to go. The main problem is how to maintain anonymity.

To trade stocks quickly I need a bank account to link to the trading platform. I can make one but I will also have my name attached.

I can do that to start, but I'll need a plan to cover my tracks when the amount starts to pick up.

An offshore company and account in a tax haven cost $25,000. Plus I'll need money to keep rolling stocks. So I'll shoot for $50,000 before I start my disappearing act.

I seem to be getting ahead of myself though. I don't even know anything about AI. Or if I can even get one?

Time for the good old Foolgle.

As it turns out there are free AI source codes available online. The problem is which programming language to choose?

There is SensorFlow, and PylonTorch. Which both use deep learning. Both source codes are only a few gigabytes. But I will need to find significantly more space for all of the other relevant data related to stocks.

Off to my room again, this time to rummage around my closet to find the 2, 1 terabyte external storage drives. I got them as a Christmas gift years ago for my S-box. But never got around to using them.

Taking them back to my office, I plugged them into the previous USB 2.0 ports; that I'm sure are much faster now.

After confirming that they have successfully connected, I downloaded the two AI and put one on each external device.

Then I set both of them up for deep learning about stocks.

Perhaps I'm being a bit paranoid but, when I set up the AI I began to worry about the data usage and tracking my service provider would do.

So I decided to look into StarConnect. I know there would still be tracking but, what about after an upgrade?

It's worth looking into.

Ok so I think this might work. The StarConnect works like a satellite, but it has 2 way communication which means I could have an AI hack into its network and camouflage or erase my network usage.

But, that requires training another AI. Plus if I was going to hack into something why not just hack into my current provider?

I feel like I'm just complicating a simple fix.

The problem is should I continue with the deep learning of stocks or should I go for hacking?

I know which I should do.

Both, Foolgle created SensorFlow which I trust more with managing stocks, and Pylon created PylonTorch; pylon the coding language. So I trust it more with hacking and code.

So I open PylonTorch, stop its current deep learning and erase all of the stock data it had collected. Then I set the deep learning to hacking, finding backdoors, exploits. Anything to grant me admin access.

Man, today has been a long day, and I still have a few hours to go.

I am tired.

7 long hours later.

I have managed to eat dinner without my face ending up on my plate.

Small victory.

[+400 - 420 Experience]

A decent amount for my half lucid state.

Especially for the rainy day that was today. I am mildly annoyed because I was not able to upgrade the solar panel or the big battery.

I suppose I could have upgraded the battery but I want the pair to upgrade at the same time.

Take it as some mild OCD.

But, now it's time to go to sleep. I can barely keep my eyes open. I can only sluggishly brush my teeth and head to bed.

Ugh…

Slipping onto my ultra plush bed has to be the best feeling ever, all of my muscles relaxing, allowing for true euphoria.

Beautiful.

But, this dang pillow, it never wants to work right. I wish I could upgrade it.

Wait.

?

I slip my hand into the pillowcase and… nothing.

Dang, I knew that was too easy, it only seems to work on technology.

Well that's another thing to take note of. But, that can wait until tomorrow. I really need to sleep.

But first, I need to find a good Me-tube video, or else I will not be able to go to sleep. I don't know why but my insomnia just works that way. If I don't have some kind of background noise I will not be able to go to sleep, I will just lay there for hours just thinking.

The Me-tube videos help distract me from my own thoughts for a while, just long enough to fall asleep.

Lets see, we have Smithy, Barf, or PlasticDroid. Lets go with PlasticDroid, I have been enjoying his videos lately.

Ok, now I should be good… Nope, let me go to the bathroom again before going to sleep.

Alright now, I should be good to pass out. Rolling up in my fluffy sheets and heavy comforter, I manage to find a comfortable spot and feel the world drifting further away from my consciousness.

My last thought for the day being let's have an easier day tomorrow.

And like that I fell asleep, letting the AI gather all the data they could want. Or as much as the external storage drives would allow.
