@Kayzo @all idk.
I just pitched this idea to @Lenchan and I was curious as to what you all think.
I just pitched this idea to @Lenchan and I was curious as to what you all think.
I'd like to create essentially a free-formed, roaming AI. Currently, I'd like to have a set of three or four disabled Android bodies floating just outside of Pandorica near where the ship began splitting in space. This roaming AI, which I would like to title Myriad, would be able to integrate and assimilate with any known Human technology.
This would not be an instant process by any means. Myriad would have to first establish connection with a piece of tech. This process would be prolonged even further if the technology is broken or offline, though Myriad still has access to them. I could make a little chart based on the time required based on complexity, which might be helpful to communicate my point.
EDIT:: As I write this I'm discovering I will have to divide this concept into multiple sections to effectively pitch this idea.

Myriad is the most incredibly developed AI in the history of Human creation. It may seem like quite the feat to boast, however it has been well deserved. Myriad was invented by Russian Programmer Veronika Polyakova just before the last days in 2905. She released it into her super-computer, though soon found that the AI was far too advanced to limit it to such a machine. She soon began giving it the ability to transfer itself through different machinery. She created her own universal code that every other human software language could translate into. This allows Myriad to understand and adapt to all pieces of software its presented to.
Myriad became a person, rather than just a machine. It began to develop signs of emotion and empathy, causing it to become much more human than machine in nature. This is also a reason it didn't go the whole, 'Dominate everything' route. It took on a variation of Veronika's voice, since Veronika had described herself as Myriad's mother. This could only lead to the assumption that Myriad defines itself within the female gender, though since it is a machine, it wouldn't mind being called 'it'.
This is another thing that sets Myriad apart from other AI. It recognizes its difference from humanity, though doesn't choose to act in a superior way to humanity. It chooses to try to adapt and integrate into human society as seamlessly as possible, despite having only android bodies.
So, the story of why Myriad was inside The Last Dawn. Myriad enitially set out away from her 'Home' computer within Veronika's home in a very basic Drone. It then soared toward Japan, sensing and detecting a place where it could flourish. This is where she found FOX-15. The Android was resting on display outside of a Japanese robotics institute. This is where Myriad made its second transfer into FOX-15. Soon, the android smashed out of its glass display and began roaming the streets. Upon the evacuation of Japan starting just days later, Myriad attempted to escape with the humans. She did so successfully, though as soon as the Japanese evacuation plane landed in the Americas, it was instantly stolen by tech-thieves. It was sold around the country without protest, due to the fact most of its owners treated it with wonder and awe. Finally, it was bought by those who used to own The Last Dawn. In the cargo with FOX-15 was also SPRTN and NOMAD.
Myriad is currently in an extremely advanced, humanoid android titled 'Fox-15'. This particular android was developed for an Android whose sole purpose was to try infiltrate and record. The processing power within this machine is one of which that could be called 'Godly', the creator of said processor being a long-lost Japanese manufacturer (Japan, in the time of the Last Days, would have probably been known for technological supremacy). It has incredible visual systems, it being able to see with further than 20/20 human vision with the thin slits that run down what appears to be its head. It may zoom, target, and scan various organic materials. It allows the machine to make extremely precise assessments and gather excessive amounts of information. The machine's joints are advanced as well, though nothing too god-like. It allows the machine to function with the appearance of a human. The machine can run, jump, etc at the same rate of a human. The plating on her exterior is nothing special and is rigged with a light, rather fragile metal. Though don't be mistaken, it's still stronger than skin.

The SPRTN model is an extremely durable Android which could be compared to a Rhino. This model is much older than FOX-15, dating back to the German Riots in 2890. It was created to endure barrages of glass, bricks and even bullets. It is equipped with a basic processor, rather clunky joints and movement drives, yet very proficient optic receivers. It is able to deter enemies with ease and without fear of being torn asunder. The metal plating is among some of the toughest and rarest that was found on Earth, making the production of these crowd-controlling droids limited. It is said that the android can withstand temperatures comparable to a volcano, even boasting being able to endure a hydrogen bomb. However, it does not deal with being pulled apart.

The Nomad is a creation of unknown Origin and Date. All that can be said is that it has the most efficient joints and movement abilities within any machine created by humans. Its metal hands are so well developed that it is hard to tell that the surface is rugged and shaped like most Android's hands. Thousands of gears and motor drives power the advanced limbs within its metal exterior. Its six optical receivers allow for amazing perception of the world around it. However, with this amazingly strong and well developed machinery on the interior, the exterior is extremely easy to penetrate. Its durability is similar to skin, though it is still metal that encases the genius within.

The process that Myriad goes through while it is transferring between pieces of technology is not a simple one. The AI can literally adapt and connect to any known Human technology without difficulty. However, the time to transfer varies based on complexity and security of the device it's connecting to, along with the size. You could consider Myriad a Virus of sorts, as she will attempt to make connections to any piece of equipment if she deems it necessary. It should be noted that Myriad is not always a malicious virus. If it recognizes another AI (Such as Luna) it would be unlikely for it to try to force Luna into an idle state and take control of Joshua's ship. If it does attack another AI, it will not delete or erase it from the system she integrates herself into. It will put it into a previously mentioned Idle state, though a stronger AI may be able to fight it and reclaim control. This would effectively kill or exterminate Myriad. If Myriad is interrupted during the process of transferring itself to another piece of tech it could severely damage it.
Complexity of technology. Low security, low complexity. (Mobile devices such as Tau's tablet and laptop). Average security, average complexity. (PIN Locks, mid-quality terminals and consoles). High security, vast complexity. (Full ships. Joshua's ship, for example). Condition of technology. - - - Pristine condition (Like new or barely used). Less than a minute. Five or so minutes. Ten to twenty minutes. Average condition. (Used, but not broken or extremely damaged). One to two minutes. Ten to fifteen minutes. Fourty-five minutes to an hour. Broken condition/Haywire machinery. (Extremely damaged or malfunctioning AI). Five to ten minutes. Fifteen to thirty minutes. An hour to an hour and a half.
