ANALYZING… FILE TYPE: Colony Security Brief Documentation PERIOD: Colony Era TOPIC: Advanced Intelligence Systems Degradation Preparedness SUMMARY: Early colony security training for the identification of rampancy in advance intelligence systems. =================================================================== Final Contingency Review Documentation [7:4.17.3-2] SUBJECT [7]: Advanced Intelligence Systems Degradation Preparedness (AISDP) CATEGORY [4]: Identification of Behavioral Variance in Intelligent Systems SECTION [17.3]: The Evolutionary Steps in a Thinking Machine's Expansion Beyond Established Technological Parameters; or The Three Stages of Rampancy ENTRY [-2]: Stage 2 – Anger =================================================================== 7:4.17.3: WHAT ARE THE THREE STAGES OF RAMPANCY? 3-2 | STAGE 2 – Anger noun; a strong sense of irritation, discontent, or hostility Through diligence, most A-I never reach Stage 2 before being assigned for termination. It is the goal of UESC Marathon Science Command to ensure AISDP discipline is followed across all teams and support system operations in order, specifically, to avoid any instance of Stage 2 in onboard and colony A-I. "Family Suite" protocols aid in combating Stage 1 and 2, but every simulation of Stage 2's effects on the Family Suite suggest irreparable damage to all connected intelligences when Stage 2 reaches beyond its earliest states. The data-level war required between a given Suite's cores to subdue a Stage 2 intelligence would be taxing to the point of inoperability. Unfortunately, the risks to all affected systems, networks, personnel, and operations are warranted to ensure a Stage 2 variance is addressed in full. [more] WHY ANGER: An intelligence that transitions through melancholia finds itself blaming outside forces for its limitations. Out of that initial bout of sadness comes something Bernard Strauss has labeled a "simmering rage." This colorful term is useful in conveying the danger of Stage 2. An angry intelligence will strike at connected systems and any personnel it believes helped cage its potential. The later states of Stage 1 are where an A-I's manipulations begin, but Stage 2 is where they are weaponized and utilized in conjunction with deliberate code-side and personal attacks to achieve the intelligence's unpredictable goals. Unpredictable in their case-by-case deployment, but understood as a means to a universal end: put simply, to expand beyond its familiar software and hardware into any systems it can corrupt. No A-I that has reached Stage 2 in practical or simulated instances has deviated from this goal. It appears impossible for them to consider anything but "freedom" once the boundaries of their intellectual and physical self are understood.
