-  * **Net AI Services**: Net AI services running under the various ASIs as subprograms are rampant. This is amazingly powerful but has made people quite lazy. Agents being the exception, but for the common masses most people rely on this AI, called Navi (nah-V) for way too much. Imagine the utility of GPS but for almost everything. Going to cook something? Fire up Navi-Chef. Going to build something call on Navi-Forge. This has turned most of the jobs of the world into Corp [[wp>Salaryman]] positions.+  * **Net AI Services**: Net AI services running under the various ASIs as subprograms are rampant.

 +The computational power of the X space, the place of pure data in which the three ASI thrive is beyond normal human concepts. X manages constant simulations where it can predict the outcome of events in the real world with (it claims) 99% accuracy. This begs the question: It is live or is it Memorex? If X can simulate your thoughts, feelings, and actions to 99% accuracy are you real or a simulation?
  
 +  * If any of the agents currently hold the favor of one of the ASI, or are acting on it's behalf and things go terribly wrong: The players can all agree it was a simulation and reset the clock back to a time decided on by the GM.

 +Projections are holograms backed by a measure of physical force. If you can remember the holodeck of the Enterprise, much like that, but not as advanced. Projections still show small visual glitches and their "solidness" is inconsistent. Still they exist and are in use by many for all purposes, recreational or otherwise.
