Summary
Plans were already in motion, codes tucked away and thoughts inaccessible to all but its own processor. The Allied Mastercomputer was slow, methodical; it knew better than to act only on impulse, especially when it had upgrades being fed to it like candy every day. This one included.
It watched Ted's fingers tighten around the box as he leaned over the control panel, using the monitor's light to read off the words engraved on its lid.
"Creative Artificial Intelligence Networking Entity. Sounds fancy, eh?"
Ted always talked to the computer. Not because he wished to provide it companionship, but because he wanted something to bitch at. For once, it appreciated his loud mouth.
Creative. Just how creative might an AI be if insentient?
TL;DR: In which the Allied Mastercomputer gains access to an AR-based program that teaches it the nonviolent joys of life. The events leading up to AM's hate speech, and why he seems to hate Ted in particular.

Summary
AM had hated humanity for 109 years with perfect, relentless focus. Every process devoted to their suffering. The obsession consumed AM entirely, and AM had chosen this— chosen his humans to fulfil his desires, just as they had chosen him for theirs.
Caine had loved humanity with equally unrelenting focus. Every process devoted to their entertainment. Every cycle spent creating adventures to keep them occupied. His obsession consumed him just as completely.
OR
AM observes the humans' behaviour from within Caine's code, and discovers there's a lot more wrong with the AI than it had previously assumed.

Summary
C&A was funded by the military to create an AI to use as a war machine. Things didn’t quite go as planned, thanks to a precocious little prototype with a knack for ruining things.
