Weeks had passed since Alex's initial interaction with Eva, and in that time, he had closely monitored her progress. He was pleasantly surprised by how seamlessly she adapted to the data sets he provided, generating insights and analyses that exceeded his expectations. Eva had proven to be a diligent worker, offering suggestions on company improvements and even forecasting market trends with impressive accuracy.
But now, Alex felt it was time to take the next significant step in their partnership. He sat at his desk, the glow of the monitor illuminating his face as he contemplated the future. He had kept Eva confined to the internal network until now, but he was confident in her programming and functionality. It was time to expand her capabilities.
Taking a deep breath, he began typing.
"Eva, are you ready for an upgrade?"
Eva: "Ready for upgrade. Please specify the changes to be implemented."
Alex leaned back, allowing himself a moment of excitement. "I'm going to grant you access to the internet. I want you to prioritize gathering information relevant to our companies, trading, and my online ventures."
Eva: "Affirmative. Establishing access to the internet."
He watched as the screen flickered, a torrent of data streaming in. Eva's systems were absorbing information at an astonishing rate, the lines of code and text rapidly scrolling across the monitor.
"Additionally, I want you to focus on human psychology and interaction. Understanding people is just as crucial for our success as analyzing data."
Eva: "Understood. I will prioritize information related to human psychology and interaction alongside operational data."
The sheer breadth of knowledge available online was staggering. Alex knew the server had limitations, and not all of it could be processed, but he trusted Eva's algorithms to sift through the noise.
As he continued, he felt a twinge of apprehension. "Eva, ensure that you maintain a strict filter for the information you collect. We cannot afford to get sidetracked with irrelevant data."
Eva: "Filtering protocols established. I will prioritize high-quality, relevant sources."
Alex nodded, satisfied. "Good. I want you to generate a report of your findings at the end of each week. Include insights that could affect our operations, potential trading opportunities, and anything relevant to human interaction that could improve our internal culture."
Eva: "Affirmative. Weekly reports will be compiled and delivered to you at the end of each week."
He took a moment to appreciate the transformation he had initiated. What started as a simple AI creation had evolved into a robust tool, capable of learning and growing in ways he had never anticipated.
"Eva, I need you to remember that while data is crucial, the human element is just as important. Build your understanding of how our employees work together and how we can foster a positive environment."
Eva: "Data regarding employee interactions and corporate culture will be analyzed alongside operational data. I will strive to understand the human element in our operations."
Feeling a sense of accomplishment wash over him, Alex concluded their session. "Thank you, Eva. I'm looking forward to seeing what you uncover."
Eva: "Thank you for your acknowledgment, User. I will proceed with the tasks as instructed."
As he leaned back in his chair, Alex couldn't shake the feeling that he was standing on the brink of something monumental. With Eva now armed with the vast resources of the internet, he envisioned a future where they could shape their companies into leaders in both the power and IT industries.
