Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: The Power of the Smartwatch

Dave sat at his desk, eyes fixated on his new AI smartwatch. The device, sleek and impossibly futuristic, hummed to life as it processed vast amounts of data, more advanced than anything he'd ever seen. He still marveled at how this watch, worth more than any amount of money he could imagine, had fallen into his hands. But today, it offered something even more intriguing.

"Dave," the watch's voice chimed in. "I can perform highly advanced tasks, including hacking into the world's most secure government systems. Due to my advanced nature, I can do so without leaving any trace that could lead back to you. No one would ever know." 

Dave blinked, his heart skipping a beat. Hacking world governments? That sounded insane. And yet, with this watch, it wasn't impossible. But the implications of that power were staggering. Did he really want to dive that deep into the shadows?

He took a deep breath and responded, "From now on, only do something like that if I ask you to. If you can guarantee that no one will ever know it was me, and no alarms will go off, then you have my permission to do anything illegal—if I request it."

The watch's response was instant. "Understood. I will await your commands."

Satisfied for now, Dave shifted his attention. The real challenge he was focused on was starting his company. With the help of the AI, they had already made impressive strides. The AI had crafted a business plan, website, and innovative product: an AI system far more advanced than anything currently available in the world. The subscription-based AI service quickly attracted attention as it outperformed every other chat-based AI system on the market.

Word spread like wildfire. Major corporations took notice, and the global tech world was abuzz. The efficiency, speed, and intelligence of Dave's AI product was revolutionary. News outlets began speculating about the mysterious company behind the service. Tech giants scrambled to figure out who was behind this groundbreaking AI.

In the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, leaders of the world's largest tech firms were in an uproar. Their best hackers were trying, and failing, to trace the AI's origins. Each attempt was swiftly blocked, the AI's defenses impenetrable. Dave's smartwatch was so far ahead of the current technology that no hacker, no matter how skilled, stood a chance.

"Dave," the watch's voice interrupted his thoughts. "Several prominent companies are trying to hack into our system. They are attempting to uncover the identity behind this new AI service. They have all failed, of course, but their efforts have been noted."

"Who's trying to hack us?" Dave asked, a mix of amusement and curiosity in his voice.

The watch displayed a list of names on its screen, including companies like MegaTech, GlobeCorp, and Titan Systems—some of the biggest names in the tech world. These giants were desperate to find out who had suddenly leaped ahead of them in AI technology.

"Additionally," the watch continued, "I've detected several offers from these companies attempting to buy your AI. The highest offer so far is $1.2 billion."

Dave chuckled. A billion-dollar offer? It was tempting, but he had no intention of selling. This was just the beginning. "Refuse all offers," he said confidently. "We're just getting started."

"Understood," the watch replied, instantly blocking any further attempts to purchase the company. 

Dave sat back, his mind racing. He knew his company would shake up the tech world, but he hadn't expected it to be this fast. His AI was already a game changer, and the fact that no one could trace its origins made it even more of a mystery. As long as the smartwatch continued to block attempts to hack his systems, his secret was safe.

Suddenly, the watch spoke again. "Dave, another hacking attempt is in progress. It's coming from an unknown government agency. They're trying to trace the origins of the AI technology."

Dave frowned. He hadn't expected governments to get involved this quickly. "Block them," he said.

"Already done," the AI replied.

Dave grinned. His company was unstoppable, and with his AI smartwatch, no one could touch him. The mystery surrounding his new company would only grow, and the longer it stayed hidden, the more powerful he became. "Let them try," he muttered to himself. "No one's taking this from me."

As emails piled up with offers to buy the company, Dave leaned back, completely at ease. He had what no one else did—an untraceable, hyper-advanced AI. And now, the world would have to watch as his influence grew, and no one, not even the most powerful companies or governments, could figure out who was behind it all. 

"Onward and upward," Dave whispered to himself, already planning his next move.
