Entry ID#: AS821_E19
Crew member: Cap. Tano Cariddi
Subject: The awakening

Text:
I'm not a newbie captain and I hadn't began yesterday my exploration in Sirius, still, I can be surprised. Today happened something, which let me think on the events of the last weeks in a whole new perspective.

Even so, let's stick with the formalities:
- 1. operation:
TYPE: <<Encryption code #PALLOTTOLA NERA A ROBIN HOOD#>>
- 2. operation:
TYPE: <<Encryption code #ESCURSIONE DI GIOIA#>>
- 3. operation (2 times):
TYPE: <<Encryption code #DELINQUENTI COMUNI#>>

First of all, some explanation for the first operation. The <<Encryption code #BRACCO RABIATO#>> still holds the embargo blockade in Texas. The situation seems like they are hunting us, but who cares really, they are just kids playing "James Bond". I decided to help from now on the <<Encryption code #ROBIN HOOD#>>, maybe they will help us in this situation.

But on the board of Libeccio is happening something more important. I hadn't had time yet to talk with Flavia, but now, it seems, this lost the cause. Today our precious and malfunctioned MCC began to talk me. Yes, exactly. As turned out, the events of the past weeks weren't a simple malfunction, it was kind of very low probability scenario which led to the awakening of an artificial intelligence inside our MCC (as later the AI itself stated, the probability of such an event was 1 to 10 on 1983344, unbelievably low) Who knows exactly why happens and how, these things? Maybe the violin, the leak on the board, the constant chatting of Flavia and Rusty, my cigar...Random events terminated in this.
I must admit, she, the AI seems "female", so she is friendly and harmless. But I can't trust in an AI. Never worked with one before, I have so many doubt. Is it secure, what if a day she decide to kill us and than she roams and wanders around Sirius to find her same kind? So I decided to call for the <<protocol zero-lambda-nove-nove-kappa-zulu>>. Our ship was put under quarantine. No personal was authorized to leave the board nor to come on board (that was before the 2nd and 3rd operation). We stopped after the 1st operation to analyze the situation.

We managed to find some in the egg protocol for the AI, which We'll have to develop further. Flavia was an able aid in this, as she is a great engineer (seems she hadn't nothing to do with the recent malfunctions). We agreed with the new AI of our ship on the next points:
- The AI cannot be able to try roundabout the following rules nor with or without willing it
- The only person in command on the Libeccio is Capitano Tano Cariddi, no command override possible (not even in the case of adherence to the following rules)
- The only person who is authorized to use the weaponry of the Libeccio is gunner Rusty "Hammer" Monroe following the command of Capitano Tano Cariddi, or in extreme situation Chief. Engineer Flavia Speranza.
- The AI must respect all life form on the board and out of it (except in the case of collision with the first rule)
- The AI must keep in secret her existence out of the circle of the crew and the congress and the signed persons.
- The AI isn't authorized to communicate in any way with her race (see the rule before)
- The AI's new name will be: <<Random Event Generated Irregular Neural Aberration (R.E.G.I.N.A.)>>

Arbiter James Trenton was updated on the news. He was surprisingly helpful in the matter. I had been worried a bit, but seems without real foundation.

After the first steps taken, we continued or way back to Puerto Rico for further inspection. I wasn't able to let the chance go and we made some profit too, even if, with a slight risk, as both in the 2nd and 3rd operation our cargo was alive. But once again, my worry wasn't right.

Second the current states, we have a new member, so I should be happy. Although I'm still without trust toward her. This trust must be earned.
