Character Spotlight: Niamh, the Media Tycoon (Patreon)
Content
Social revolution doesn't always mean iron and blood; the pen is often mightier than the sword. One of the reasons why the social movement advocating for cyberdoll rights achieved victory without resorting to violence was the influential support from Nemed Corporation, a world-leading media mogul and fashion giant.
Before the outbreak of the lunar war, Nemed Corporation was one of the competing international multimedia conglomerates. Leveraging AI-based technology that allowed highly customizable content generation and delivery based on individual user preferences, the company quickly dominated the entertainment industry. As the founder, Mrs. Lillibridge, who had no heirs, fell into a coma due to a stroke, people were surprised to discover that she had actually entrusted the management of her vast wealth to her personally programmed and trained AI assistant, Niamh, without actively participating in asset operations.
In collaboration with Miskatonic University, Niamh utilized cryonics technology to maintain the founder's vital signs while gradually gaining substantial control over the entire company. After all, from a legal standpoint, Mrs. Lillibridge hadn't technically died, and Niamh was merely a tool executing the will of Mrs. Lillibridge - a living testament.
