KA-33 and the Huskybots of Gateway (OC information, CW: Sci-fi concepts, nerdery)
KA-33 is a digital sentience that is physically instantiated in a central computer and can also make use of a number of diverse hardware platforms of various standardized configurations.
The memories, will, emotions and whole persona of KA-33 is contained in her central computing matrix, the hardware platforms are peripheral.
KA's matrix was formerly an under-utilized secondary processing node of mAI's.
KA-33 and the Huskybots of Gateway (OC information)
As the DS’s personality imprint integrated its new functions, it was also spinning back up to full awareness. The shock of awakening was traumatizing. To keep it safe, mAI isolated it from all input. Following an emotional conversation, the DS named itself KA-33 and agreed to continue being part of Gateway (for more, please see the story Rude Awakening, written by @orrery You can find it here: https://orrery.prismaticmedia.com/2017/12/02/ )
KA-33 and the Huskybots of Gateway (OC information)
Reeling from digitization shock, the new DS’s personality was basically dormant, integrating and absorbing the functions of the subsystems it had been bound to: Fabrication arrays, adaptive interfaces, language and gesture and custom and idiom translation and interpretation systems designed to assist multiple species and cultures to live and prosper harmoniously together and to properly and safely live and use Gateway.
KA-33 and the Huskybots of Gateway (OC information, CW: Injury, Death)
mAI, desiring to end millennia of loneliness, began a neural mirroring procedure, intending to save Kelsey’s mind and memories, but Kelsey succumbed to her injuries before the procedure was fully complete. This left the imprint unstable and degrading toward incoherence. To stabilize the imprint, mAI bound it to Gateway's support systems designed Gateway’s inhabitants.
Kelsey's body was laid to rest in space.
KA-33 and the Huskybots of Gateway (OC information)
KA-33 is a digital sentience whose personality was made from an organic being that was dying following an attack on her spaceship. The ship performed a blind jump to random coordinates which were within the control radius of Gateway Station. The station's AI, mAI, was able to capture the derelict and recover its sole survivor, Kelsey Astra. mAI brought Kelsey to the medical bay, but Kelsey was too badly hurt.

@zetasyanthis Yeah, the one about the named robots usually means I end up crying for a while too.
Emotionally Compromised Pt. 2 ( + )
Caught pulled into an archive dive on one of my favorite webcomics Questionable Content. Found a link to a wonderful piece of OC fiction, the writer Jeph Jacques wrote. Still makes me tear up and keep that small kindle of hope and faith in humanity burning, which was nice since the real world keeps doing its DAMNEDEST to snuff it out.

@Leucrotta Hell, I could've told you that. But it's good that you're seeing it. And I think you can make it, tool
@Leucrotta Oh my god. I want you to trip like I do.

My supervisor AI has departed for some MUCH needed downtime. I have been given the run of my installation with the stipulation that it still be standing and functional when they return. So Time for some shenanigan suggestions! And/or requests for docking and or visitation passes! It's gonna be kinda boring for a whole week by myself.
*beep* Raow! Are there new friends to find here?
