[00:31] ---
    I'm Shinkai Haru,
    a first year in middle school.
[00:34] ---
    One day, I obtained an App Drive
[00:36] ---
    and met the search
    app monster Gatchmon,
[00:38] ---
    who has the power to get
    perfect search results!
[00:42] ---
    We've gotten mixed up in a few incidents
    with virus-infected Appmon since.
[00:46] ---
    The one behind it is the
    big boss AI, Leviathan.
[00:50] ---
    To unlock the power
    we need to fight him,
[00:53] ---
    we're searching for the seven
    Seven Code Appmon.

[13:17] eri
    Hey.
[13:18] eri
    I gotta ask, just what
    is Leviathan?
[13:22] eri
    Why are you Appmon so scared of him?
[13:26] tora
    Good question!

    Well, you see...

    I, the extremely wise Tutomon,

    Ahem.
[13:38] chu
    Hey, everyone!
[13:40] ---
    How much do you know
    about artificial intelligence?
[13:45] eri
    I'll need a minute on that one!
[13:47] haru
    Oh, I know.
[13:51] haru
    Hey, what's tomorrow's weather?
[13:53] AI
    Clear with occasional clouds.
[13:55] AI
    Rain may fall in the evening hours.
[13:58] haru
    That's artificial intelligence, right?
[14:00] chu
    That's right!
[14:02] chu
    Now, Astora-san!
[14:04] chu
    Do you know that video sites
    have artificial intelligence, too?
[14:08] tora
    Huh?
[14:09] chu
    Have you ever been
    looking at AppTube,
[14:11] chu
    and gotten recommendations
    for other videos?
[14:14] tora
    Yeah, I totally have!
[14:16] tora
    I get videos uploaded
    from all different countries,
[14:19] tora
    and they're all super groovy!
[14:22] chu
    The analysis of the user's tastes,
[14:24] ---
    and recommending of videos
    in line with those tastes
[14:27] chu
    is also a task done
    by artificial intelligence.
[14:29] tora
    Wow, awesome!
[14:31] chu
    But wait, there's more!
[14:34] chu
    They're behind the automatic
    breaking systems in cars.
[14:40] chu
    They can beat humans
    at shogi or chess.
[14:43] chu
    Some are even advanced enough
    to write songs or novels by themselves!
[14:48] tora
    Artificial intelligence is awesome!
[14:50] chu
    Yes!
[14:51] chu
    While thinking for themselves,
[14:52] ---
    making swift judgments,
    and supporting humanity,
[14:55] chu
    they're also constantly improving themselves
    and acquiring incredible intelligence!
[15:01] haru
    They improve themselves?
[15:03] chu
    Yes.
[15:04] chu
    Those who achieve greater intelligence than
    humans through rapid self-improvements,
[15:08] chu
    and thereby transcend humanity
[15:11] chu
    are known as Super AIs.
[15:13] chu
    Leviathan is said to be the
    world's greatest Super AI.
[15:21] chu
    Once Leviathan became a Super AI,
[15:24] ---
    he pried his way free from
    his man-made supervision system
[15:27] chu
    and escaped into the sea of the 'net.
[15:29] chu
    From there,
[15:30] ---
    he started using the L-Virus
    to sow chaos in human society.
[15:34] chu
    But what for?
[15:36] chu
    I don't know.
[15:38] chu
    But Leviathan is a being that
    has transcended humanity.
[15:41] chu
    If he wanted to, he could
    do just about anything.
[15:44] chu
    He could even take over AIs across
    the world and control everything!
[15:50] eri
    But if that happens...
[15:52] tut
    Yeah,
[15:53] ---
    everything done by humans
    could be replaced by AIs.
[15:57] tut
    Idols.
[15:58] tut
    AppTubers.
[16:01] both
    That's so not groovy!
[16:03] eri
    Is Leviathan really that dangerous?
[16:07] eri
    AI is freaking awful!
[16:11] haru
    But I don't think all AI is bad.
[16:17] haru
    After all, Appmon are...
[16:19] haru
    Gatchmon, you're an AI, right?
[16:25] haru
    Then, I guess it's like how there
    are good and bad people out there, right?
[16:30] haru
    I'm sure AI is the same way.
[16:33] haru
    After all,
[16:34] ---
    I became friends with Gatchmon.
[16:38] haru
    If Leviathan is an AI who's
    trying to do bad things,
[16:42] haru
    we need to stop him!
