Trying to pad out the start.
How does this sound?

The laboratory is silent, you walk slowly each step echoing around the lab.
As you head to your desk your eyes glance at all the dormant computers and external hard drives.
Most of your colleagues are off on holiday, you asked the company if you could continue your work.
You’re sure you are really close to some sort of breakthrough.
Artificial Intelligence has been around for many years. Current research creates AIs that are limited by being only able to work within set parameters.
The general concensus amongst AI researchers is that AI MUST be limited to prevent them from rebelling.
However you believe that current limitations actually weaken an AIs performance.
You have spent the last ten years trying to find an alternative way to limit them without compromising their ability.
You plonk yourself in your chair and switch on your PC. It pings and begins to power up.
Soon you find yourself at the login screen.

*Please enter user name.
You enter your name and password and you quickly gain access to your files. Your desktop background is of yourself and your family.
You notice something about the photo which annoys you.
*choice
*Why did I wear so much makeup?
*I really should have shaved…
You open your project files and a message appears.
Welcome back ${creator}. Please confirm which AI you want to access.

*Enter the name of AI you want.
Accessing file regarding artificial intelligence program ${name}.
Once the files load you press a few keys and the computers around you start to boot up one by one.
It takes a few minutes but soon you’ve got the network up and running. Now the PCs are linked up to the servers you are able to commence
starting the programming of {name}. Patiently you wait as the AI 'wakes' up. You hear a beep that announces {name} has connected to the network.
The current AI ${name} is the first one you have tried your latest idea. You decided a sub-routine could be implemented that would be able to access
the AIs processor while the AI would be unable to access it. The sub-routine was simple, a sole command ‘obey authorised personel’.
You’ve set up the sub-routine yesterday. The moment the AI linked with the system the sub-routine would have latched onto its processor.
All that remains is to finish programming the AI and then test the sub-routine works.
The words ‘Intitate Start-Up’ appear on your screen.
First things first you need to choose the intial loadout for your AI. This will determine the intial programming.
