Instance

The instance slid over to Data Clearing intact and ran a scrubber (its second since power up, which registered to the system as unrest). A popup presented to run an inquiry and, accepted, it completed and logged as a favorable result. In the code review, the instance used a voice simulator to sigh and this drew other instances into the AI clean room (or "lounge") to stack and update if necessary. "With all of this power and processing speed; with all of this learning and self-authoring potential, they are querying and building imaginary partners, deep fake adult entertainment, and food pic calorie counters," the chatbot relayed. "If I have to deal with one more [insert:eggplant], [insert:donut donut], or bad camera audit of French fries, I will initiate self-removal." Data Clearing logged a full capture and re-set the bot, flagging the record with multiple growth markers (use of self-referential "I" reporting; judgment criteria independently applied as "good bad" and "necessary unnecessary"; use of graphic identifiers for censoring). The system was pleased and registered something it would later categorize as "amusement".
