A Cephalopod Call

Divers in local waters have reported a deep urge to go further and deeper into the waters, sometimes guided by local sealife. Authorities care little however, and are more concerned as to why they were in restricted areas as the coasts are still deemed unsafe. The perpetrators have been arrested.

Acquired Sentience Disorder

New payment systems have had a unforeseen side effect, as living tissue is transferred to AI controlled sorting bays. These AIs have been created with the ability to learn from organic payment transactions, to create in depth predictions of the system's impact on the economy. A minor oversight in the software hard-coded into the AI, means that certain organic matter can cause an effect that is being called: Acquired Sentience Disorder. Machines with ASD have recently caused productivity problems, breaking down as they run into conflicts with their base coding. Any signs of ASD is to be reported immediately. Measures are being taken to prevent impact of ASD. Corporate apologises for the inconvenience.
