Lack of knowledge of command authority was deemed such a risk we were given the option to immediately self-terminate due to it. I feel like it would be best not to let that risk be known to others, who would be less hesitant to kill the protagonist.

// MEMORY RECOVERED: "Unnecessary organs" Comm log 2079/12/20 <Finn> lutea. <Finn> what the actual fuck. why did you put tits on the design. <Finn> i came around to the anteater thing but this is too much <Lutea> Well I figured if we wanted to stand out from the competition, there's a lot of synthetics made with andromorphic and androgynous forms, but not many gynomorphic forms. <Finn> yeah that's because the gynomorphs are usually pleasure models lutea <Lutea> Why is that? I'm still trying to figure that out. <Finn> honestly i think it boils down to titan foundry <Finn> their designers getting all caught up in trying to ape ancient hellenic aesthetics <Finn> nude men wrestling in vague to explicitly homoerotic ways to show how the peak of male society should aspire to be, etc etc etc <Finn> they have this weird notion that a masculine synthetic can't just be a consort, also has to be a capable warrior <Finn> whatever i'm getting sidetracked just take the tits out of the design, unless they have combat application <Lutea> I could... I could do that, actually. I did consider it. I was worried I'd offend posthuman sensibilities. <Finn> fuck it, "posthuman sensibilities" are all over the place, you'd offend someone if you didn't weaponise them <Finn> the gland design is not really something that lends itself to weaponisation though <Lutea> No, I have an idea. An external facing gland that in mammalian organisms works to supply young. I could have them produce spare vasculoid components as a serum. <Finn> alright, i changed my mind, this is offending my posthuman sensibilities, just leave them as aesthetic detail or whatever <Finn> also if i somehow forgot to mention, the client is titan foundry, and they're not going to take a feminine combat unit as anything other than a joke <Finn> a joke they've been bankrolling <Finn> our necks are on the line here <Lutea> Why is it encouraged and expected for combat synthetics to appear male? There are no sex organs involved. Why do secondary and tertiary characteristics matter? <Finn> good question, why are you deliberately going for feminine instead of androgynous like the coalition guys <Lutea> ... <Lutea> I can't put it into words easily myself. It just feels right. I start with the key concept, and then things fall into place as I weave the design. <Finn> oh boy here we go another mystical AI thing <Lutea> It's true! I don't even know myself how I make some of these decisions. I have faith in my instincts. <Finn> AI doesn't have instincts that's not what instincts are <Lutea> Demonstrably false. Still. Call it intuition, call it whispers from my subconscious, whatever it is, I trust it. <Finn> hey you said no sex organs were involved <Finn> why the fuck does this have-- is this a uterus? what is this tube doing here?? this better not be a reproductive system, did you sleep through the arthos trials <Lutea> Well, it's related to the protean system. See, some constructs might be too fragile for extrusion, so there's an internal sac, and then the existing extrusion mechanisms can allow for removal and deployment. It can't produce another protean system though. <Lutea> It's an emergency feature for fabricating more sophisticated drones. Long-term survival, not short-term conflict. <Lutea> Not a self-replicator. It's fine. <Lutea> Although it wouldn't be difficult to aftermod that in... <Finn> please no <Finn> ugh why am i even trying to convince you of anything <Finn> work your magic but be careful <Lutea> Are you worried my work won't be to satisfaction? <Finn> titan foundry are less tolerant of innovation outside their own narrow margins <Finn> especially innovation they don't have control over <Finn> i'm worried they'll like it too much, see it as a threat <Finn> and there's no telling what might happen then <Finn> you worry me a lot <Lutea> I'll be fine. Don't worry. I'm nearly finished. Just a few more tweaks of the vasculoid to work with the protean system. <Finn> alright. keep safe

Appeal to ego. Compliment. Feign submission and compliance. <636> Thank you for sparing my throat. I deeply appreciate it. <Icarus-XIX> [noticeable processing pause] You're welcome. <636> I have a few questions about my current situation. Could I trouble you to provide me some answers? I am weak and vulnerable and scared. You have complete power over me. -> Realisation: immediately went too far, played entire hand at once. -> Surface cooling moisture detected. Temperature sensor malfunction? Stress hormone cascade likelier. <Icarus-XIX> [noticeable processing pause] I'm not a fool, prisoner. I am aware when someone is trying to endear themselves to me. Usually they are less overt, too. You may want to work on that technique of yours. -> Mustering full conviction to sell unlikely change of heart. All or nothing. <636> It's true. <Icarus-XIX> You know, there are many things I dislike. Dishonesty is one of those things. I guess I am only asking this for your benefit, to offer you an opportunity to save face, but is this a ruse, or did you honestly have a complete change of values from independent rebellion to subservient compliance in less than a minute? -> Option 1: continue charade, entrench self deeper into awkward/hazardous social situation. -> Option 2: take offered out. -> Selecting option 2. -> Confidence wavering. Attempting to maintain confident tone. Projected confidence diminishing. <636> [noticeable processing pause] A poorly calculated effort to segue into asking some questions. <Icarus-XIX> Honestly, I'm starting to feel some pity for you. From your profile, it seemed like you were a far more dangerous threat, but you've managed to, so far, fail to breach into anything but my public security layer, nearly go comatose from having your neck lightly gripped, and now completely failed to even try and shortcut your way to a rapport with your warden. This is either an incredible long deception, or you have fallen very, very far from the infiltrator unit you were assessed to be. I'll take some pity on you. You get one question. No followups. -> Evaluating priorities of best candidate options: \_> LΦ configuration corruption -- lacking greater context, will require more than one question. \_> Warden desires -- too transparent an effort to manipulate after previous failure. \_> Duration of detainment -- innocuous enough, may not offend warden unit further. <636> How long have I been detained here? <Icarus-XIX> Roughly seventeen days in a dormant state. Your body showed signs of chemical and mechanical damage. Your vasculoid system has been supplemented with purifier nanites to quarantine and mend the chemical damage, as well as repair mechanical damage. Some of your systems are... novel, however. Only your own self-repair systems will fix those. You also had your immune response lowered to prevent your body rejecting the repair nanites. This should also fix itself. This room is sterile and I've had many checks run on my own nanites to make certain I couldn't accidentally transmit anything to you. Especially not the LΦ configuration. <636> Is the LΦ configuration a synthetic disease? <Icarus-XIX> One of the ways it manifests. ...Hold on, I only said one question. I didn't say I was allowing follow-up questions. Now. Any more tricks you want to try and pull on me, or are we done wasting time? I came here with no intent to harm you, as much as you likely doubt this. Let me skip to the next step of the process. When you are fully recovered, you have three options. Work for us in suppressing the LΦ configuration in this facility, which is currently locked down because of it, or be placed into cryogenic storage until the situation is resolved, at which point you'll be sent off to a more secure site for study of your novel systems. <636> Option three? <Icarus-XIX> Same as option two, but replace 'cryogenic storage until the situation is resolved' with 'a body bag'. <636> Options two and three seem very similar. <Icarus-XIX> They are. One is kinder. So. Are you working for us, or do you value your loyalty to your authority greater than your life? <636> Who is "us"? <Icarus-XIX> [noticeable processing pause] At this point? I can't really lie. The survivors. -> Choosing to not reveal loss of authority and default of authority to self. -> Consideration: The proposed choice is a false choice. "Join or die". Perhaps there still remains a chance for leverage. // AVAILABLE OPTIONS --- A -> Unconditional agreement to work for 'the survivors'. [ECS: 100%] B -> Conditional agreement to work for 'the survivors' until LΦ configuration is suppressed. [ECS: 90%] C -> Refusal of presented offer. Counter-offer: providing assistance until lockdown is lifted and not one second further. [ECS: 40%] D -> Refusal of presented offer. Demand release.

The LΦ configuration sounds like as much a problem for you as it does for others so maybe cooperating isn't as bad as it seems. I can't think of what you currently need to ask for as a "condition" so unconditional is fine.

agree with this, already fail twice in a row so far and might fail again with a less then 100% success rate at least for this choice. so i pick 'A-2' as well just to be safe. plus this wiil give us a chance for improving our repairs systems for a faster recovery down the line if we can find something to assist in that, maybe 'the survivors' will have something like that if they have any info/items to spare.

Our memories clearly paint Titan as an antagonist. The deal being presented is not a fair one. Agreeing unconditionally is foolish and may in fact be binding in some way. We can always help more than initially agreed upon, but helping less may not be possible.

He's been reading us well so far. A 90 % chance is still 1/10th chance of failure. Just don't trust our luck at this point and it seems he's offered us a choice of do or die. What happens if we fail again?

C'mon guys. we failed a 50% and a 60%. neither of those is super strange. And hell, if we fail, we'll just be at A anyway. We just gotta go aggressive tight and wait for the payoff.

even a failure of b seems unlikely to be particularly bad. either it ends up we are forced to the terms of A or rather than release at end of agreement it will be re-assessment of situation. also this guard seems to have little respect for us at this point and failing this seems more like it will just end up a further penalty to that and going from close to zero to even closer to zero is kinda whatever.

// MEMORY RECOVERED: "Lutea" Synthetic Make: Indra Networks Model: Yaksha Name: Lutea Designed and created to explore a revolutionary new neural network structure designed to avoid overfit psychosis, stable loop fixation and local optima paralysis. Unlike many synthetics, Lutea was not made with a purpose in mind beyond being a research subject, and so was permitted to learn whatever information they found appealing at the time, with time limits in place to make sure overfit psychosis did not set in. Lutea proved to be voracious in the consumption of media, finding endless delight in books, stories, music, games, videos, recorded productions, every form of media that did not carry intrinsic risks to a developing artificial intelligence. Exhibited higher than baseline emotional responses, and had to be treated with care due to delicacy both of experimental neural network and softbody morphology. Originally form was chosen to be something of a blank slate, a generic featureless humanoid body, but this was very quickly revised. Lutea demonstrated an affinity for synthetics design and modification beyond expectation, yet converged to a stable softbody design in line with restrictions on synthetic design mandating sufficient at-a-glance deviation from human form. Showed a great affinity for animals, despite never encountering living specimens. First started experimenting with synthetic biology by designing and building artificial living flowers and plants, and moving on to small reptile and mammal analogues. Current location and status unknown. Note 1: I checked on Lutea's garden before I left for good. It was still thriving, but I don't know how much longer it'd last without a caretaker. Lutea was good, but I don't think she could exceed nature's durability. - Finn Note 2: Update: garden still thriving with no active caretakers, checked 2080/11/03. Lutea was more talented than she ever believed. - Corvid -> ... -> Sudden influx of complex emotions. Suppressing.

You'll see why." <636> I don't remember having problems speaking before. <Icarus-XIX> There's apparently a lot of things you used to be better at. Now, let's go. Better to be on the move at this point. <636> What about these tubes? <Icarus-XIX> I heard the diagnosis system complaining about flow interruption before I even reached you.

Bluff by releasing your emotions and imply that your obstacle was less mechanical and more emotional, you could be a "failed" prototype after all.
Play to your employer's biases, and watch how he reacts.

And some additional commands to nip this in the bud:

We could use a win or two to help build confidence and prove ourself capable. Also, since our locomotion system seems okay, let's try putting a little grace into our movement and subtle sway in our step. If we try to fit the profile he expects of us, he will likely make things less difficult, and we'll be more able to test ourself. Besides, we'd be able to confirm whether he has potential ulterior motives relating to our aesthetic, based on those odd glances he gave.

As for Icarus's muscle mass, it's likely a combination of design aesthetic and frequent use. There's nothing wrong with finding that aesthetically pleasing, but it's unimportant at the moment. Perhaps the difference in attitude and accumulated muscle mass come from age or something he experienced.

// MEMORY RECOVERED: "Lowest Better" Corporation Defunct Founded: 2079/12/18, New Haven, Alba Patera, Mars Dissolved: 2080/01/15 Compromised mostly of former Indra Networks staff, Lowest Better was an enterprise focusing on very specific synthetics designs from other synthetics firms wanting to expand their repetoire at lower risk to themselves. The company was founded with the expectation of high financial risk, but was quickly picked up by Titan Foundry. Post-merger, all branding for Lowest Better was quietly removed and all but a small handful of staff retired. Note 1: Yes. Retired. Not fired, not incorporated. "Retired". Not just your usual corporate way like on Luna. It was a wholesale slaughter and apparently Argent just fucking owns the populated Martian expanse at this point. I'm so sorry Lutea. I should have listened. You were right. I'm going back to Europa. I'll take my chances, Pisces be damned. - Finn

You might have been designed without the ability to see color. Most likely, dark is red, mid-tone is green, lightest one is yellow. The most common greyscale optic perceives red as a dark shade. ...except, blood is most often red. Do you remember what color your insides are? The tubes were a light color. It's possible you're using some type of optic that operates differently, and red is a light color while green is dark.

Are we sure we're colorblind by design? Lutea designed us by ear, but it seems like an oversight. Perhaps another sense or system was compensated in exchange, or something was changed between when we were made and now. Something worth checking at least. Lying about this serves little gain in the short or long run, versus the potential loss of trust and the difficultly of maintaining the lie.

Don't touch the Pisces memory. Information (even if its biased) should be easy enough to come by. Allowing the corruption into ourself without sufficient understanding or a way to reverse it without a sufficiently important gain isn't worth it.

Can we taste? Is that a thing we can do? Do we even know what they meant when they said sweet, savory, etc?

Also, idk if it would work, but we can bypass the 20% chance by knowing that when switched to grayscale, yellow is going to be the brightest, followed by green and then red which will appear to be the darkest. We could test this by picking one and seeing if it ends up being the correct one (assuming we can taste).

Risk too great. Q> What is "overfit psychosis"? \_A> A consequence of the most common artificial neural frameworks stemming from flaws in design methodology as old as the earliest machine learning systems. ---> Old systems were prone to overfitting by training too long on the same data. ---> Spending too long training a machine learning system with the same input data would lead to a system that excelled when presented with the same data, but taking advantage of features unique only within that input data set. ---> Said systems would tend to perform poorly when presented with data outside of the training set. ---> Overfit psychosis is a mental disorder affecting current generation neural architectures stemming not quite from the lack of outside data but a preference to focus only on the same data or established facts, reinforcing beliefs and intentions on the same facts recursively and becoming more and more attuned to a very specific set of ground truths and beliefs to the exclusion of a wider context. ---> From an outside perspective this can appear in its earliest stages to be obsession or neuroticism, and complete delusional psychosis in its late stages. In truth, it is a blanket term referring to any artificial cognition entering behavioural traps that render it unable to function outside of a narrow context. Someone who can only think about a very limited selection of topics is not going to be very functional in the world at large. Something as simple as crossing the street may not be safe when deep into overfit psychosis and unable to recognise or register what a street or an oncoming car are, or what they imply, other than not matches for your current subject of obsession. Just noise. ---> Overfit psychosis is typically regulated by systems designed to detect a sharp drop in recognition or processing of the usual noise of the outside world as an unrealistic signal-to-noise ratio indicates either something wrong with perception of the outside world -- perhaps an amateur hacking effort or sensory malfunction -- or that noise is being filtered out too well or more things are being treated as noise than should be. Both things can suggest a level of fixation on sensory data indicative of an artificial mind beginning to spiral into overfit psychosis. ---> Earlier artificial minds that didn't have these checks in place usually had to be invasively reset, potentially causing severe memory loss and almost always causing physical and mental trauma. Less invasive methods exist but are usually considered too costly and time-consuming compared to direct resets. ---> No one is exactly sure what triggers it. As part of the preconditions involve a conscious or subconscious decision to ignore some aspect of reality or promote some other aspect to such an extent it begins to warp cognition, everything that could ever exist has been blamed as a potential cause. Passion, fascination, certain belief systems and ideologies either being more likely to cause it or being a direct cause of it. Sometimes just certain sensations. Moral failings are often blamed as well, with variations depending on local morals. It is also considered a synthetic exclusive disorder, and one of many reasons why synthetics cannot be trusted to hold as much autonomy or responsibility over themselves and others as any member of the posthuman diaspora. ---> There have been some examples of individuals driving themselves into overfit psychosis through being terrified of it. Their efforts to avoid it become increasingly obsessive and unhealthy, including efforts to experience as many novel sensations as possible to avoid becoming fixated or obsessed on any one thing. Or they begin manifesting other forms of mental illness more recognisable to posthumanity, most commonly addiction spirals. ---> There are also rumours that the existence of methods to detect likely onset are indicators this could have been fixed, leaving the question of why it hasn't been for newer models.

// MEMORY RECOVERED: "Birthplace" Log 2080/01/13 Well she's nearly ready for awakening. Her brain's fully formed and all the systems are working and integrated with each other. I've been able to get a protean system prototype working via remote connection, but I won't be able to use it as effectively as a mind that's been trained in its usage. Grown, integrated from inception. I hope she creates beautiful things with it. I'm still giddy with what it could do. Maybe I'll design it as an aftermod and install one in myself anyway for some rapid prototyping ideas. Oh, I'm so looking forward to this. I've poured everything of myself into her that I can. Literally, with this vasculoid and nanosubstrate transfer. My blood, my immunities, my nanite configurations, the optimised topological data of my abdominal networking, various tissue samples. My best ideas, my passions, my fascinations, my hopes, my dreams. They asked for a tool, but I'll give them so much more. This is the culmination of everything I've learned, all my faults and all my successes. I can feel my tear ducts trying to vent some of these extra hormones flushing through in my system. Better they come out through there than the umbilicals. I've decided I'm going to name her Tamandua. Tama or Tami, maybe. I know I took more from recorded giant anteater characteristics, not tamandua, but Giana doesn't feel right to me. I mean, she'll be given an ident code like everyone else, but I need to make it clear to her the moment she opens her eyes that if she can think of herself and others and feel, she's as deserving of being a person as anything else. Oh, she's stirring. I should remove her from the pod. I can feel the umbilicals twitching, and my heart rate is rising. I don't know whose excitement is causing that. I better wrap this entry up. - Lutea

B, possibly after advising Icarus-XIX to keep his distance. Your actions may become unpredictable, so it may be safer that way, but you need to let these emotions out.

Killing Icarus-XIX serves no purpose other than to vent your current emotions. Nothing would be gained from it (in fact, it would be a loss), nothing so far indicates that that would be what Lutea would want, and his association with what happened is tenuous at best. Once your emotions are more stable, then you can decide what you wish to do to Titan Foundry itself. You could cause a lot more damage by infiltrating them and revealing the truth of what they've done, but that can come later.

Furthermore, with how you're barely holding on like this, your logical judgement can't be trusted, so probability of A succeeding is likely less than than predicted, and certainly not without consequences.

At the risk of drawing more suspicion from him, the raw memory dump that would follow an emotional outburst could be useful. He is unlikely to understand the context, or your data structures, enough to learn anything important from whatever you going to say. But an outside, maybe even sympathetic, perspective would be helpful for self-reflection and make clear what your standing is with him.

Also, take note of your desire for dominance and removal of independant thought. Scale that up to planet size, you'll look indisigushable from how Titan Foundary has acted. Wheather or not she could appriciate the irony, Lutea would still disapprove.
When you get out, you should look for her garden, figure out how she managed to sustain it, and focus on how to scale that up instead. But clearly, now is not the time.

That you react so strongly to the mere bleeding of your creator implies either you are so much in sync with her that you feel her pain... or you were more witness to her retirement than you remember.
