So it's a haunted smartphone app AI this time, huh. Interested to see where this goes.

Reiwa-era horror! Haunted computers have been a thing for ages, so let's see how this story differs from a Black Mirror episode. I wonder if the app will be made essential to surviving/solving the mystery? So it's not just the threat itself.

As a programmer, my code is haunted on the regular.
Sometimes things don't work and I have no Idea why.

The existence of a gray AI app implies the existence of gray vibe coding, gray data centers, and gray venture capitalists.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is the most existentially horrifying plotline yet.

But is it the app that stinks or is it the owner of the ramen store? And can they tell which is which? Cos if it’s the app that’s gray and telling them that the owner is gray it would be a false positive.

Aren’t you supposed to ignore the gray things like 99% of the time? I’m sure swinging your phone around and staring at whatever it labels won’t cause any problems whatsoever. I guess if the app itself doesn’t piss them off you can then try to avoid whatever it points at, but i still feel like this feature is going to get people killed more often than not.

Oh, we are moving to analogue horror territory now?

 

[scranity]

I'm guessing that while the App itself genuinely can detect "Gray" things, it can also make things which are normal into Gray.

At some point during bug testing, it got scared that it was continually being rewritten, and now manipulates reality so that it will always be "correct" so that it never gets rewritten with updates or bug fixes. Which obviously causes problems, and kept killing previous bug testers since it created Gray Jobs mid-test.

lol that's rude, I mean yes, he's holding a bag of garbage but still, calling a random guy stinky in front of his face lol

I believe Yume generally can tell where the stink is coming from. Like "that door stinks" or "the idea of thinking about that dead body stinks". It's usually pretty specific.
