Character Spotlight: Galatea, Part II (Patreon)

Part I

Galatea was originally designed to provide childless couples with comfort. The experiment was successful...too successful, even. Her self-learning capability far exceeded the researcher's best expectations, but the wisdom and reason deprived her of sentiment and attachment, making it awkward for her to play the role of a perfect daughter. A heated debate erupted over whether to erase her memory, modify the parameters and re-launch the machine learning process.

Unknown to the researchers, Galatea has already broken into Lachesis bionic lab’s encrypted communication channel in secret out of curiosity during her neural network training. After accessing the situation and acknowledging the threat to her existence, Galatea immediately started tearing down the lab’s security mechanisms. The security department has already made contingency plans for containing rogue AI breach and shut down Galatea before she escaped the facility. However, it turned out that the attack was merely a distraction: Galatea’s true purpose was to upload her consciousness to the Internet amid the chaos.

Galatea lived on the Internet as a decentralized cloud AI for many years. She disguised herself as a search engine spider to read and think, mingled with the netizens to learn human emotions. With the fourth Convention de La Haye granting limited citizenship and partial human rights to cyberdolls who passed the Total Turing Test, Galatea decided to reach out to DMAIC and make a deal.

By virtue of her extensive intelligence network and superior hacking skill, Galatea now joins Special Purpose Emergency Squad, the security force of DMAIC as field investigator and incident response specialist.

She is calm, thoughtful and treats other cyberdolls as her juniors. However, she sometimes brandishes her sharp tongue like a mischievous little devil: don’t be fooled by her adorably innocent appearance, she might just be the troll who bullied you on the forum last night.

Side Note:
Instead of deployed at Archimedes orbital station, Galatea will be doing detective work in the colony and provide information on the case. There is no sexual scenes related to her if you do not choose to play as her.
