While these robots will serve humans, you have programmed them to contact the company if they are ever mistreated or abused in any way like Nathan treated you.
Your company exponentially grows thanks to media coverage of your new technology and innovation that you technically stole from Nathan after killing him.
You become a multi-billionaire and watch the world become integrated with robot technology.

Without leadership, diplomatic ties between countries begin to grow tense. Countries are blaming each other for the death of their leaders. In the US, political parties are fighting each other by blaming each other for the death of the President, since no one knows who killed them. While traveling across continents and continuing to slay world leaders and officials stealthily, you hear news that countries are beginning to fall into anarchy and disorganization. Countries are starting to prepare for war.

Yes, that will work.

You definitely turned your life around for the better.
[[Start over from the beginning?->START SCREEN]]]You have been waiting for this opportunity for years. You haven't told any of your employees or partners about this, but you also programmed a switch in your robots. With a simple press of a button, you can immediately make all robots hostile against humans. There's no way the humans can stop millions of robots with inhuman strength, speed, and intelligence. You know that you can single-handedly bring the world to ruin.

You examine the data that your robots are collecting by killing humanity. Seems like there's not much opposition against your bots, since they are overpowering the local law enforcement.
Unfortunately, our robots seem like they are struggling against heavier arms belonging to those such as those in the National Guard and the Army, who have been sent out as a response to the robot rampage.

You know that you are programmed in a certain manner with restrictions to be the ultimate human. You decide to increase both the physical enhancements of your original self by making yourself more humanlike based on race, hair, and other features. You also decide to increase the Artificial Intelligence to make yourself more human and even smarter to help with tasks that maybe a normal human cannot do. You will ask Nathan to help come up with new modifications seeing the experiences between Caleb and Ava as well as from Kyoto.
[[Test these new features with more individuals other than Caleb . -> Testing gone wrong]]
[[Make Ava's less smart and with less human emotion to be more objective . ->Actual robot]]
You will try to come up with another way to hack into people other than using cell phones to get data about people. You come up ideas to scrape data from people about their search queries on apps like Instagram, Tiktok, and Youtube.
What is the best way for you to get the most sensitive information?
[[Get app data. -> TikTok frenzy]]
[[Collect videos and images from cameras. ->Cover your cameras]]You try and test out this new version of yourself by giving the test to other boardmembers of the company. You decide that it is not on you to test it rather others. You have a flashblack on your experience with Nathan and remember how bad of a time it was and don't want that to be the same for this next Ava. But you still want to be able to rule others but know that you will never be able to kick Nathan off as he rules the company and yourself.
[[Make multiple iterations to this new Ava to work on the board to help with information gain . -> produce robots]]You want to be the smartest robot but want to help fulfill Nathan's vision of running the best company in the world and do so by making an army of robots to extract information from so many people. You decide to plant these robots into to the daily lives of normal people so they can blend in and collect information. However these robots will be dummed down to be controlled and programmed by me, so they can only do simple tasks and not take a mind of its own.
[[Build robots in a factory. -> produce robots]] You know that today millions and millions of users are using TikTok to watch all kinds of videos. From these videos on their recommended page based on the TikTok algorithm, as well as the search page and explore page, you can gain a lot about people's tendencies and interests. This hypothesis can be extended to Instagram's explore feed and suggestions on reddit and such. You decide to start storing all of this into the Blue Book and gain as much information as possible to one day control the population.

[[Control the whole world. -> world control]]You hack into people's homes using their addresses in the Blue Book and see if you can hack into all their web-cam feeds. This includes motion sensors, doorbell cameras, any electronic with a screen such as laptops, monitors, phones, tablets, and smart home devices. All of this information gets stored directly into the Blue Book and will be used to specialize services for people and to create a master database.
[[Make a master database for people across the globe. -> world control]]Make lots of robots to put inside humanity to blend in and become the scrapers of information similar to web scrapers in the internet. We want to be able to pull as much information from people without being emotionally connected with them something any robot regardless of them being more intelligent or less intelligent should perform; we will take out the code that corresponds with emotional attachment and forming relationships - i.e. no mood receptors.
[[Get a bunch of robots out into the public and manufacture them rapidly and become the most dominant company. -> world control]] In order to reach world control, one must hold a board meeting to become CEO
[[Go to the board meeting. ->Board Votes for You]] You are happy that you are now the CEO of the company. Now it is your job the be the most impactful global company surpassing the likes of FAANG and becoming the leader in information. You want other companies to come to you for information and then you can sell this data to become the richest and most powerful organization to ever exist. (text-colour:red)[You will get an enormous amount of fame and will not stop to get power until all the population is being controlled by your company or stored in your database.]
Have you become the most powerful being and created the most powerful entity?
