"Thank you"

Head to Rec room, chug beer.
You head to the rec room, take a seat next to the man watching tv and begin chugging one beer after another. Sadly, its not potent enough to get you anything but buzzed.

Then read on that second kind of AIs.
The second AI seems rather odd. It doesn't rely on preprogrammed responses, rather it samples data around it, combines this information with it's physical capacities and runs evolutionary algorithms until it discovers the "best" way to accomplish a task. It's very processor heavy and slower then other methods, but allows for greater flexibility. It does, however, lead to what the book describes as "instances of actions, reactions or inaction that are baffling to humans, including self termination."

Hand back book to AM. Then go back to rec room and examine katana.
You return the book and walk to the rec room before stopping to examine your sword. It's a simple thing, three foot long, slight curve, tanto tip. Everything on it is made of a marbled alloy of unknown metals. It's edge is fairly sharp but nothing special.

"Just what I wanted to see least."

Zap on.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Hmmm. Useful in case of beforehand preparation, but not quite what I was hoping to achieve.
Read throught the rest of the book.
By the way, Steve - have they found out what the serial killer meant? Also... Have they managed to catch him, in the end?

You finish the book. You don't think it will help with anything complex, but a simple AI is probably within your grasp.

>We haven't been investigating what he said. And it is believed he died in the fire, along with the town's inhabitants. If he didn't, he's been quiet so far.

"If you can get me something a bit stronger than beer, sure. Gotta get some images out of my head."

"Right. I'll be back."

To the armory, and ask what kinds of booze they have.

Ghost ship...OK, I will do some more research.

Walk around, enter the bullet-time mode one more time.

>Probably. They're bad news. Very good at hiding and very good at killing. Then again, no one is better at killing then the HMRC.
