>Can't you just take a Gemini body and instead of using human organs and a meat brain just replace it with robotics and bam, you have a humanoid android with an AI brain. How fucking hard is that to implement?
Conceivably, it wouldn't be too hard. As for a player character crafting a bot friend like that, I assume they may need to pass a cybertech/security tech DV. It doesn't have to be humanoid either. It could be a spider bot on wheels like a tachikoma, a small quadrotor drone that buzzes around you and acts as an extra pair of eyes, or whatever your imagination can come up with. I think it'd be neat to have a backup of your robot friend, so if they get destroyed, you can re-upload their AI into another body. Maybe they start off in a Gemini but get blown up and have to be reuploaded to a tiny drone bot, and you have to work up enough eddies to rebuild their body to the way it used to be. Ziggurat may not like the idea of an AI having full agency over a body like that. You may need to keep that robot friend under wraps.
>For an NPC of course, no idea how a player would play as an AI android.
It may follow a different set of rules for cyberpsychosis. You might have to work it out with your ref and workshop it, but maybe the bot would be immune to that effect in exchange for having other issues in the world. Perhaps it'd function similarly to this >96201788 depending on how that character wants to play things. Then again, you could let your ref control it. That's how I handled a number of my extra characters that were related to my character. The downside, of course, is that the ref may make them do something you don't want. The same thing happens with Cyberpyschosis, though, so it's not that different from standard play in my book.

I don't know who these people are, but if it's related to some Reddit drama, let those fags sort it out there.
