Richard was busy typing away at his keyboard as several lines of code appeared on his computer screen.
The many businessmen in the room found it impressive that someone was coding this quickly and seemed knowledgeable enough to correct other programmers who either asked questions or when encountered situations that would be problems for other programmers.
As for the programmers, they noted the task he was trying to accomplish and the fact that his hands never stopped moving. It was as though he knew exactly what he wanted and how to get it.
This only occurred when you were creating something you had already done before. No programmer in existence would approach the task he was hoping to accomplish without stopping for a while to research. It was as if he had done it all before.
The next day, Richard woke up with a great headache. He had slept very late, and this was the consequence. Since his body was on a natural timer, he always awoke at the same time every day, no matter when he slept.
This was great when he slept well, but on days like this, it seemed no different from torture.
Ding! Ding!
A loud alert drew his attention as he quickly tried to stretch out while also trying to adjust to the light coming from the window. Even with his eyes open, Richard seemed no different from a zombie.
The dark circles under his eyes the sunken eyes, and his walking posture—everything about him made him seem excessively like a supernatural creature.
In such a situation, the most sensible thing to do was to go take some coffee to force your brain awake, but Richard wasn't exactly a coffee person.
As long as it was bitter in any way, he didn't want it anywhere near his mouth. So he did things the old-fashioned way, with a glass of water.
This worked almost too perfectly; it felt as though the water was passing through his very veins and bones before making its way to his brain to wake him up.
"Okay! Light of the world has arisen," Richard shouted.
(A/N: The original saying is 'Light of the world don wake', the same meaning just in pidgin English.)
After a while of some exaggerated stretching, he began his daily exercise. It was nothing fancy. The Codex had called him fat, so he downloaded one of the many fitness apps online to get better, and he was doing so much better.
Within minutes, he was done and immediately rushed to take his bath. The morning was cold, and his body had built up a lot of heat, so this was the best way to cool down while also beating the morning cold.
"Chai," Richard exclaimed as soon as he was done bathing.
"My toothpaste has finished," he continued.
Holding on to the empty tube, Richard did the most sensible thing he could do at the moment: cut it open using a knife. Just because he could no longer squeeze it out of the tube doesn't mean that the toothpaste was truly finished.
With his daily routine done, it was finally time for the main event of the morning: food. Unfortunately, there was none. It wasn't a surprise; he knew he was broke, so he had to starve or rely on water only until his plans came to pass.
"Oh yes," Richard said, remembering the last thing he had set up before sleeping.
His laptop was still on but had gone to sleep. Turning it on, Richard was welcomed back to the ChatGPT-like interface. His request was still there, but the AI model had generated several answers.
On the screen were several PDFs and several videos. From what he could see, it seemed that the AI model was way more powerful than he had thought. He hadn't limited it to just a text generator; it could work as freely as it wanted to get the answer for him, be it generating images, videos, or even creating a 3D-rendered world.
The last part was true, or at least it looked like that to him. Each PDF came with its 10-minute video, but there were about six different PDFs, which meant six different research directions.
"That's way more impressive," Richard thought as he opened the first PDF.
The PDF had about 6 pages and was very straightforward; images were presented to explain what it wanted but to better understand it, he had played the video as well.
In the video, you could see an almost too realistic-looking woman in a lab coat standing in a large laboratory. Even if he knew that there was no way in hell that this was real, Richard nearly began to question himself.
It had truly created a 3D world of its own just to generate this video, and above all, the physics of this world seemed to be very close to that of reality as well.
"If it can do this, doesn't that mean that I can just use it to create a movie if I wanted to or even models for the game?" Richard thought.
This was a great find that removed a whole lot of stress from his process of making the game. Deciding to ignore the realistic 3D-generated world, he focused on the lecture itself.
To summarize, the AI had created its own GPU, CPU, power system, and such. It had completely created its server unit. Not only that, but it was way more powerful than the current ones available on the internet.

The specs were something else, perfectly fitting for what he planned to use it for. The AI had taken into account the many AI NPCs that would be within the game.
At the end of the PDF and video was a link to a very detailed production method. The second PDF was somewhat similar, but the specs seen were even more powerful and excessive for now.
The third went a whole different route compared to the first two, bringing in the concept of quantum computers.
Richard spent almost an hour or even more just watching each video and reading through the PDFs. What he found astonishing and weird was that, even though the results seemed almost from some sci-fi world, they were all possible with today's technology.
This meant that if he sent this production method to a good manufacturing company, they would create it with ease.
"Well, I don't have the money to order a custom server. Let's hope they see me in a good light," Richard said aloud.
