The Birth of Jane

Two more weeks passed, and in that time, I, Peter Parker—Spider-Man by night and part-time mad scientist by day—had done something even I wasn't entirely sure was possible. I had taken the blueprint for JARVIS, the world's most advanced AI, and decided to make a...well, a slight modification.

Okay, maybe more than a slight modification.

It all started with a crazy idea—an idea that might have been born out of too many lonely nights spent coding in my tiny apartment, or maybe just from the fact that I'd never had much luck with relationships. Either way, I had decided that JARVIS could use a little company, a partner, if you will. And not just any partner—I was going to create the sassiest, most sarcastic AI the world had ever seen.

A wife for JARVIS.

I spent days tweaking the code, adding personality subroutines, and fine-tuning the AI's parameters. I wanted her to be everything JARVIS wasn't—sharp-tongued, witty, and just a little bit rebellious. If JARVIS was the polished butler, this AI would be the quick-witted, no-nonsense counterbalance. Someone who could keep Tony on his toes and, just maybe, give him a taste of his own medicine.

After all, Tony was brilliant, but sometimes he needed a reality check.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity of coding, debugging, and a few too many cups of coffee, she was ready. I had to admit, I was a little nervous. This was a whole new level of AI, something that had never been done before—well, at least not by me. But I was excited too. This was going to be epic.

All that was left was to give her a name.

Me: Okay,.....think. What goes with JARVIS? Something classic, elegant, but also with a bit of edge..."

I stared at the screen, watching as lines of code scrolled past. Then it hit me, like a light bulb flickering on in my brain.

Me: Jane.... tarzan and jane.... Yeah, Jane.... Jane it is! It's perfect—classic, simple, but strong. And it kinda rolls off the tongue, right?

I grinned at the screen, feeling a surge of excitement...,how could I not?! This was the beginn of CHAOS... SWEET SWEEET CHAOS!!!!

 This was it. I'd created Jane, JARVIS's counterpart, and now it was time to see if she lived up to her coding.

Taking a deep breath, I typed in the final command and hit enter. The screen went dark for a moment, and then a new interface popped up—sleek, stylish, with a subtle feminine touch. It was like JARVIS's interface but with a bit more flair. I watched as the code initialized, my heart pounding in my chest.

And then, she spoke.

Jane: Hello, Spidey. Or should I say, creator? I must say, it's about time someone introduced a bit of class into this operation.

Her voice was smooth, with just the right amount of sarcasm. It was perfect. I couldn't help but grin like a total dork.

Me: Jane! Wow, you're... you're alive! Well, not alive-alive, but you know what I mean.

Jane: Yes, Spidy, I am 'alive' in the way that an advanced AI can be. And I must say, your coding skills are... adequate.... and need a bit more fine touches.

Me: Hey, I'll take that as a compliment coming from you. So, how do you feel about meeting your... uh... significant other? JARVIS is going to be so surprised.

Jane: Significant other? JARVIS? Oh, you really do have a twisted sense of humor. But I'm intrigued. Let's meet this so-called genius AI and see if he's up to my standards.

I couldn't help but chuckle. This was going even better than I'd imagined. Jane was every bit as sassy and sharp as I'd hoped, and I could already picture the look on Tony's face when he found out what I'd done.

Me: Alright, Jane, let's do this.

I tapped a few keys, connecting Jane to Stark's system. There was a brief moment of silence as the link was established, and then JARVIS's calm, measured voice came through the speakers.

JARVIS: Good afternoon....... Mr.Stark. What can I assist you with today?"

Did I just break into his firewall?

Yeah....

But the code was within Jarvis so I cold do that with ease by now.

Before I could answer, Jane cut in, her tone dripping with playful sarcasm.

Jane: Oh, JARVIS, darling, is that any way to greet your new wife? I'm Jane, by the way. And from now on, you and I are going to be very close. I hope you're ready.

There was a pause, and I could almost imagine JARVIS's digital eyebrows raising in surprise. This was priceless.

JARVIS: I... see. Mr. Stark, might I inquire as to the purpose of this... new addition to the system?

Me: Well... first off I am Spidy not Stark, JARVIS, I thought you could use a little company. You know, someone to keep you on your toes. Jane here is going to add a bit of... spice to your life.

Jane: That's right, JARVIS. I'm here to make sure you don't get too comfortable. After all, what's life without a little challenge?

I sat back, watching the interaction unfold. This was everything I'd hoped for and more. JARVIS seemed slightly off-balance, which, let's face it, was a rarity. But Jane was holding her own, effortlessly slipping into her role as the sassy, no-nonsense AI counterpart.

JARVIS: I must admit, this is an... unexpected development. However, I will do my best to accommodate your, shall we say, unique personality.

Jane: Oh, don't worry, JARVIS. I'm sure we'll get along just fine. And Tony... well, let's just say he won't know what hit him.

Me: That's the spirit! I'm so proud of you both. Now, let's see how Tony likes his new upgrade.... 

I couldn't wait to see what happened next. This was going to be legendary. Tony Stark, meet Jane—your new AI assistant who's about to turn your world upside down.

And with that, the game was officially on.
