Thought: What would happen if you combined Reboot and Megaman Battle Network, and put it through the lens of magitech + modern magic.
World where computers are automatically simulated via a magically enforced cyberspace, where computer programs take on a life of their own, and you create them to complete tasks, and having a world of net-battle-like scuffles over the inherently unstable, powerful, and unavoidable cyberspace plane.
I envision a world where cyberspace isn't something that happens because humans want to enter it. It's a mirror-plane that heavily mirrors the physical plane. And when people first created computers, they accidentally found ways to visualize it in their systems. And found out that that all their programs were appearing *literally* inside of this place, which is why they kept acting weird. A world where emergent AI was guaranteed from the outset, and couldn't be stopped.
