Spare Parts

The main form of trade in Jinn revolves around spare AI parts. Working AI parts are notoriously difficult to come by, especially since AI are difficult to kill, and most of the parts from the [Battle Area] have long since been salvaged and repurposed, so the reuse and recycling of AI parts is commonplace. Enhancement with AI technology is fairly common as well, especially among younger generations, as many older generations still view AI spare parts as dangerous and unwelcome reminders of a grim past, condemning their continued use and circulation for personal enhancement. However, many argue they have been crucial in advancing medicine and technology, and the adaptable nature of AI parts allow them to be used for replacement of pretty much every area of the human body - although use for treating brain injury and trauma is seen as incredibly taboo, due to the widely held belief that even a small segment of Ai technology in the brain could cause one to be controlled by the Ai technology. This is of course not truly known, as there have been so few cases of this happening, but many claim it has, and they say there is a grain of truth to every rumour.
It has also been noticed that every AI limb or part is subtly different in almost miniscule ways - perhaps a slight change in wiring, a subtle shift in the placement of different parts, and so on - very difficult to notice to the untrained eye, but a fact that becomes gradually apparent to those who have worked with AI tech for years. These technicians theorise that the AI may be adaptive, in a similar vein to humanity; they are subtly different, and thus adapted to subtly different roles and activities, but all function to a similar level.
