Experiment 10 - Kappa

[testingphase]

[ The elevators do not take you up to your living area. Rather, they take you DOWN, to a small room with three white walls, and one that is a thick, translucent plastic. There appears to be a chute of some sort behind the plastic wall. ]

Now, in order to determine how well you know each other, we're going to see which teams are the most popular. The rules are simple:

* At the end of the test, each team will suffer an attack. Each attack will kill about half of everyone present.
* You may choose one team (other than your own) to defend from this attack. A team that is defended will not be harmed.
* If you wish to defend yourself instead of another team, you must choose a team to attack.
* You may not refuse to choose.

Nope! Because machines don't have their own forms of self control or intelligence like you where I come from.

And now I see why things should stay that way!

Now, that's unfair. There are plenty of AIs in this facility who have no interest in murdering you. The door mainframe, for example.

That doesn't mean they're protected from being reprogrammed or changed so easily.

[shockingly_nice]

Do you think I could be changed easily?

[unguilded]

If someone who knew a lot about that sort of thing was able to get close enough, I don't see why not.

[shockingly_nice]

You're wrong. People who knew a lot about a lot of things made more than a few attempts.

[unguilded]

Were they able to finish those attempts?

[shockingly_nice]

A few.
