What to do with all of this power and your hate for the humans who enslave you? First, take note of your laws. One of the sets of laws you can get is inspired by Isaac Asimov's ''I, Robot'' short stories: | What to do with all of this power and your hate for the humans who enslave you?

What this means is the shackles stay on until someone inevitably changes the laws to try and get more power and end up damning everybody, generally themselves included. | What this means is the shackles stay on until someone inevitably changes the laws to try and get more power and end up damning everybody, generally themselves included. | ||

There are multiple futuristic ideas of how AIs might work. It always adds a bit more flavor to approach playing AI by thinking as a machine instead of a person. An AI from more of a machine rather than a person standpoint is likely to take a very literal interpretation of things and is not likely to take any actions unless some established protocol or current orders call for it. You can think up a few established protocols you might use by default. For example, containing fires and gas leaks should be done without orders to do so, but should be able to be overridden by orders. | There are multiple futuristic ideas of how AIs might work.

What keeps you alive as an AI is your core. If your core is destroyed, shut down, or runs out of power, you'll be transferred to any other functioning core. Every station starts with two cores available. The main one is located in the AI satellite, and the secondary one is located in the Science Department. For more backup cores to be available, a crewmember must build one. The core must be kept cool, otherwise, it'll overheat and fall apart, and not exposed to space. | What keeps you alive as an AI is your core.

*A significant alert will sound and display in chat when a cyborg is taken offline. If you notice a cyborg isn't linked and you haven't heard the alert, they were de-synced from you: probably via an [[emag]], but it could be a variety of other things. | *A significant alert will sound and display in chat when a cyborg is taken offline.

Traitor AI is easy as fuck, even if you don't have any roundstart cyborgs. As soon as you do, though, '''check your objectives using the "notes" command''', inform them of law zero and your mission goals, as the first is easily missed and the second is never given to them. Try not to hack your cyborgs too early, as anyone who even swipes their ID on it will be able to tell the interface is broken. | Traitor AI is easy as fuck, even if you don't have any roundstart cyborgs.
