"is this what i think it is" Dave says seeing what was on the screen but not quite able to believe what he was looking at
"if you are thinking it is an achievements page, then yes, it is what you think it is"
a screen showing 3/? next to the word Achievements, the three achievements currently showing up being
'blue creation' requirements: create using blue energy, reward: +1 max blue energy
'yellow creation' requirements: create using yellow energy, reward: +1 max yellow energy
'achievements' requirements: gain any achievement, reward: access to the achievements page
"this could be big" thought Dave as he looked at the page, the fact that there was no specified upper limit to the number of achievements intruigued him, if there was no upper limit, then that possibly meant that there was not upper limit to the amount of energy he would be able to potentialy have
the achievements yellow creation and blue creation made him the most concerned, if they were achievements, did that mean there would be one for creating something with red energy, and if there was, would it be worth it to take the risk and generate something
in the end he decided that the risk wasn't worth it and if he was ever forced into a situation where he was required to use his red energy he would get the achievement anyway so there was no rush in wasting any of the energy when he didn't need to
"AI, do you have any infomation on what any of the other achievements could be, any tips or hints that could help me" he asked hopefully
"negative, although I undertand the inner workings of the system and how it works, I do not have any infomation on what any of the achievements could be or how to unlock them" it replied
"the only advice that I can give you is that the achievements are all related to the system and so you should focus on things that can affect the system if you wish to unlock more achievements and gain more rewards from it" the AI explained
"that does make sense" pondered Dave "in that case I will try something I have been thinking of for quite a while now" he said looking at the screen with a serious expression
"I would like to give you a name and I have come up with one already, as keeping calling you AI when you are essentially my partner in all this seems a bit too cold"
"I have no problem with you continuing to call me AI, but if you wish to change my designation I see no reason why you shouldn't, also, going from you bringing this up while we are talking about achievements I'm guessing that you believe that you might get another one from performing such an action" it replied
"I will admit that the achievement is part of it, but like I said, we're partners now, and it feels wrong for my partner to not have a name"
"in that case what is the name that you have selected for me"
"it might not be very imaginative or impressive by any stretch of the imagination and it is even a little bit corny" said Dave as he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment "but i was thinking of the name Gen, based on generator, I don't know whether your a male or female AI or if you even had a gender but this name was the first one that came to mind, if you don't like it I'm sure I can come up with something better" Dave backtracked, not wanting to upset the AI, even if it couldn't be upset
"that will not be required" replied the AI "I accept the name Gen, thank you Dave" it acknowledged, the robotic voice slowly becoming more feminine and seeming to become almost more alive
Achievement unlocked: 'what's in a name' requirement: designate a name for the AI system, reward: AI gender unlocked, current gender: female
