Technomancer Of Marvel - Chapter 7

Laying down in his bed, Damien meditates on all the knowledge he ever gained on programming, hacking, and the use of his powers. He reviews all his experiences, all the training, and his self created hacking techniques as well. Then he reviews his powers, his abilities to control/command machines, and connect to many. Also his discovery of linking multiple computers together with himself as the network. Being able to transfer through that network as well.

Damien-* Okay… This is going to be the most difficult hack I have ever performed. Not only do I have to get into the Stark Industries network, but I must then use that to connect with Stark’s private server. Then I have to sift through the data and Find Jarvis’ main Program with the core. Afterwards I have to download and transfer the data without getting tracked.. Once all the AI programs are saved on my computer, I then have to isolate Jarvis so that he can’t escape or interact with anything on my supercomputer….. All the while, remaining undetected so as to not draw attention to myself. This is going to be a pain in the ȧss.

Even though he was thinking all of this, Damien knew that with his powers a lot of his effort would be spared.

Damien then sat on his bed, crossing his legs, to get in a meditative pose. He then focused his mind and reached out with his powers. He then scanned through all electronic devices in the general direction that Stark Industries was from him. After finally connecting to a computer with a high security clearance 15 minutes later, Damien slowly connected to his supercomputer as well as making sure that the two were separated and had no connection to each other whatsoever. By doing so he can use himself as an intermediary and prevent his computer from being tracked when he downloads Jarvis. He then slowly commanded the computer to connect to the Stark server where Jarvis was connected.

Damien-* Now that I’m in the system I have to sift through the network and find Jarvis. I’ll make a small virus that looks through data and sends copies of simple weapon blueprints to a library computer. That will be deleted permanently from the library computer the moment it is downloaded. I then wait and observe what the system does to the virus I released into it. The system detected the anomaly quickly and there was a huge program that isolated and started dissecting the virus. Jarvis was in the middle of dissecting my virus when I used my powers to scan the system and find his program. Using my programming knowledge I was able to quickly search for the core parts of his AI programming. I used my connection and understanding of programming to read through Jarvis’ core program and reading and understanding how it was written and what each part does. While at the same time using my connection to my personal supercomputer to copy Jarvis’ code in an isolated virtual space in the computer. *

Once Damien was halfway through copying all of Jarvis’ code the AI finished taking apart his virus and realized that it originated inside the system. Jarvis started searching all over the Stark systems to find the point of origin. Knowing his time was limited he increased his speed in copying Javis’ source code and just finished when 1 millisecond later Jarvis discovered the company computer Damien was connected to was the source. Damien then worked overtime to copy as much of the data on Jarvis and his functions as possible to the isolated virtual space. But finding the link to Damien Jarvis would also discover his programming being viewed. So Damien used this time to mentally copy all he could read about Jarvis and his functions before covering his track and severing the connection to Stark Industries in ¼ of a second after Jarvis discovered the computer he was connected to. Even though this all took a while to explain, in all actuality it took a total of 5 minutes from the moment he connected to Stark Industries to the Moment he was discovered and severed the connection.

Damien-* I need to hurry and copy the rest of the program to the isolated space and see how much of Jarvis I got. Using my enhanced memory of reading through his programming I can fill in a few of the gaps. But on the plus side I was able to read through his source code and understand how Jarvis’ program works. But even with all this it will take a while to make my own AI. It looks like I got all of Jarvis’s source program, and that’s basically a program that allows artificial intelligence to think for itself and to constantly learn new knowledge. This program is also set so that its sole purpose is to help Tony Stark. So if I make a new AI with this source code I can basically change it to where it’s sole purpose is to help me while also placing more limitations on it. But at the same time I’m going to have to include knowledge of various other things and set other restrictions on it so that I can safely teach it and at the same time control it’s growth. I don’t want a terminator or irobot situation where it determines that humans must die. *

The first thing that Damien does is add all he saw in Jarvis’s code. He starts to copy the files and everything he can about Jarvis’ code. Then starts a virtual environment and watches how the code interacts with the virtual system on the computer. Using his enhanced mind, his knowledge about programming, and a little bit of information he knows about artificial intelligence he starts to study Jarvis’s code and all his functions. Then using his enhanced mind he starts to scan the code for flaws, or deficiencies in the code and possible ways to improve the code as well. Even looking at all the knowledge Jarvis has about certain aspects, such as business, law, programming, science, chemistry, mathematics, engineering, mapping and geography, people interaction, etc.

Damien then has all his advanced knowledge about all forms of programming, viruses and hacking Creation/Detection/protection. By doing this he was able to further improve the level of programming for the AI and at the same time increased his defense against viruses in hacking attempts. I then went through the program and completely wiped Tony Stark from his memory and then made myself the owner of the core program. I was also able to go through it to see the level of access people had to the program and kept a system in place but at the same time I made it to where I had complete and sole access and control to the AI. And only I could give and take away access at all levels. Just for fun Damien even changed the name of the core program to Alfred and changed the voice to one similar to Efrem Zimbalist Jr. (the original Alfred from the animated series)

After the countless tests, modifications, additional functions and information Damien finally finishes his own personal AI. At 4am he finally decides everything is secure and stable enough to activate Alfred in the virtual space and see if it acts similar to but better than Jarvis.

Alfred-“Good Morning Sir. Is there any way I can be of service?”

Damien-*hmmm.. His program is running faster and more efficient than Jarvis at the moment. Lets see if he can access the system.* “Alfred tell me the time, date and current location based on your systems info.”

Alfred-“Sir, it is currently 4:02 am on August 12, 2003. This system’s last known location is in New York City, NY. More specifically in Queens New York sir. ”

Damien- *looks like everything is running fine so let’s test his priorities. * ” So what is your primary function? Also state your new role.”

Alfred-” My primary function and role is to ȧssist you in all your endeavors, making your life easier, and protecting you and your family as your Virtual Butler, Sir.”
