| + | Bag Of Beliefs (BOB) is an artificial sub-personality technology designed to guide humans through life’s psychological challenges. Originally invented by neural engineer [[Dr. James Moonweed Wong]], BOBs are produced and marketed by [[Zoroaster Immeasurables (ZIM)]] as “AI spirits beamed directly into your brain.” |
| | | |
− | To date, ZIM has created a [[Task BOB]], [[Affirmation BOB]], and [[Destiny BOB]] - which remains the most controversial BOB yet.
| + | A BOB often forms an intimate coupling with its human host, serving as a partner in inner dialogue, co-signing difficult life decisions, curating new experiences in the [[Wavyverse]], and even co-piloting (or [[droning]]) the body to take action on the host's behalf. |
| | | |
| + | For security, a BOB pairs to its host via a [[Jewel]], a neural hardware needle installed between the eyes. ZIM’s current offerings include [[Task BOB | Task BOBs]] and [[Affirmation BOB | Affirmation BOBs]]. The commercial release of [[Destiny BOB | Destiny BOBs]] remains delayed. |

− | ==History== | + | ==Controversy== |
− | Bag of Beliefs (BOB) were created by the celebrated scientist and neural engineer, [[Dr. James Moonweed Wong]].
| + | Destiny BOBs remain ZIM's most controversial offering, and have been at the center of a decade-long string of PR disasters, including [[The Orlando Study]], [[New Years Eve 2074]] and [[Double Destiny Wedding | The Double Destiny Wedding]]. The [[Destiny BOB]]'s ability to push a person to enact their [[Prime Path]] is feared to have poorly understood implications for human agency. [[Humanistas]] have condemned BOBs as an accelerant to the obsolescence of the human species. |
