Who'd have guessed when the board ousted the CEO for being duplicitous!

Only for him to use his duplicitous advantage to have the people who removed him ousted, had himself re-instated, got married, and then decided the important thing was allowing his AI to be used as a weapon. So fucking wholesome.

And with the decline in birth rates armies are going to have smaller pools of people to recruit from. Even the US army is experiencing a shortfall, and it's not getting better any time soon. Perun did a great video of this just recently.

It makes sense that if militaries won't be able to recruit the quantity and quality of troops that they would like to, they'd need to supplement those numbers with some kind of force multiplier.

Traded moral values for financial value. Tale as old as time.
