Adib is self motivated and does not wait to be told what to do. In 2070 terms, he is one of the few people a demanding automotive intelligence can trust to translate ambiguity into action with minimal supervision.

During the time I found Adib's work quality to be of the highest quality. His professional approach, integrity, and problem-solving remain exactly the human traits that machine managers still need close by.
