Since Artificial Intelligence have been given the same individual rights as human citizens, the @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ Office of Statistics have shown that the amount of AIs in positions of direction in the high-tech sector have recently skyrocketed. The main origin of this sudden rise is considered to be the natural ability of machines for high-tech and administrative organization.
The recent promotion of Erasmus, a former antivirus, to the position of Chief R&D Manager of Yeyland-Wutani©, raised some contradictory concerns as of the wiseness of placing the future of @@NAME@@'s high-tech industry in the hands of artificial persons.


This premise is getting there, and I like Yeyland-Wutani. :)
It's wisdom rather than wiseness though, and you can't have linebreaks in an opening description.

However your options remain a generic response to the idea of AI workers, rather than being about a specific issue.

Linebreaks are corrected, and the vocabulary error too.
I changed the first two options to adress the issue more specifically, as well as giving them more substance.

However there is two issues with that draft.
The title doesn't really reflect the issue (apart from being a reference to a robot movie), but I don't have any other idea. Is it passable ?
The other issue is that if I'm referring to Yeyland-Wutani in the description area, then the issue can't be raised in socialist countries. Is it possible to create a conditional duplicate of the issue, like the option duplicates ? Is that relevent ? Replacing Erasmus's job with Director of Research for the Ministry of Big Tech and Science, for example.

It's possible to do whole doppelganger issues, and in fact one of my current edits is just that -- a communist version of an existing capitalist-only issue. However, to justify two issue slots I think that we'd demand more than a slightly different phrasing in the opening description: rather, it'd be necessary for the different nation types to be approaching the problem with entirely different options and priorities.

A better approach might be to move the Weyland Yutani guy out of the opening description, and simply make him an option speaker.

Yes but in that case I don't have a specific guy that poses trouble... or I can't say his job.
I think I'll convert my last option to capitalist and post it, then I'll see about rephrasing stuff for a communist similar issue.
