Gavatar

Gavatars were game avatars in radical times. Gaming was the number one leisure activity among hanyos. To automate much of the routine slog work of gaming, game characters were given some basic ai coding so that they could record and call up various combo moves. Gamers wore a scansuit and practised their moves in a gamebox, and the system recorded each move. Gavatars were prone to virus infection, and Rane Orbison's study of some of these 'spoiled' gavatars led him to find a piece of what would eventually become [Darwinian ai]].
