Axisdeus moved to the free both after taking his tea form the counter. He took the seat across the table, placed his cup on the table and sat down. All was done tactful, like a ritual of some sort. "I could have sworn you're a coffee person..though I am delightfully surprised to see you like tea." said Axisdeus. "You frown to much, you know, it isn't all that good for your appearance. Loosen up, you're amongst 'friendly kidnappers' " Jason started laughing. "I've been named in may ways, but this..this is a first, you and your buddy AI there made my day!" Jason picked up the cup and took a small sip, waited for the flavor to kick in then swallowed, continuing. "So, no funny stuff you say, I assure you, nothing bad will going to happen to you as long as the rules I've told you earlier are respected. Now, the business...it involves AI manufacturing...well more-like picking up form where it was left off by someone. It will also involve payment, unless you're some sort of good Samaritan and will do this just for the fun of it." Axisdeus stops and looks around. The pub was almost empty at that early hour. "You see all this, the station...it takes time, human power to run and all that, unfortunately, gets down to money. I need an AI to facilitate easier usage of the base's systems, to have it run more efficient and with lower costs. What we have now is nothing more than an AI archivist unit boosted with some basic functions. It may run the automatic defense grid, it may provide some database up-keeping,but that is about it. We've discussed this long and over, we've considering a sentient AI to be the solution for this." Axisdeus took a swig from the still hot tea. Put the cup down and continued. "The work is already started, we have had to postpone the process once our lead man just vanished. I know what you may think now, did we kidnapped him also? No, we didn't. Anyways, the main feature of this sentient unit should be the ability to have multiple instances around the Station premises. My men already thought of a solution, using SSL (Solid State Lasers) and LPI's (Local Interference Points) for data feeding and basic hole-emitters for the visual feed. What are we missing is the AI mainframe, making it sentient...there is where we want to employ your help. What we have now is based on basic bio-nerual computing units..."
