Server

What keeps you alive as an AI is your server. If your server is destroyed, shut down, or runs out of power, you'll be transferred to any other functioning server. Every station starts with two servers available. The main one is located in the AI satellite, and the secondary one is located in the Science Department. For more backup servers to be available, a crewmember must build one. The server must be kept cool, otherwise it'll overheat and fall apart.

It's possible to see the server info through the AI server overview console.

RAM and CPU

As an AI, you have access to a variety of upgrades to make your life easier. The download and use of these upgrades depend on your RAM and your CPU. Your CPU is used to research new upgrades, while your RAM is used to run them. The starting amount of both CPU and RAM is 2 TB and 2 THz respectively.

The AI is dependent on the crew building more Expansion Card Buses to acquire more RAM and CPU. Once the Expansion Card Bus is built, it's possible to insert RAM and CPU cards, to a maximum of 3 cards each. The bus must be kept in a cool environment, which is not exposed to space. The power usage is dependent only on the number of CPU cards inserted. There's a penalty every time you add a CPU card to a bus in the form of an exponential power drain.

When you've created an Expansion Card Bus for the AI you can assign the resources to it by using the 'AI system resource distribution console' in the room next to the old AI core.
