Corrupted schematics

Gears whir and servos turn, mechanical arms swerve to life, welding, screwing, and soldering parts together in any number of configurations. Monocultures and genetic cultivation vats bubbled further along in another section as one cell became two became four became eight, onward ad infinitum until the synthetic muscles could be pulled out of them, and stripped from their strange placenta-like sheath.

All according to programming, like any other day at the factory. 120 years of advancement, a third world war, and further dissolution of the powers of the state at the behest of those at the head of said state had worked miracles for anyone able and willing to pay for them, 24/7, the only human souls a set of managers and maintenance

Tonight robot factory #A8-410 on the outskirts of Boston little else was different. The late shift had finally left, and the direct and concentrated personality matrices finally shut down their Turing protocols. Energy expenditures could finally be maximized without a focus on making the eldritch language of ones and zeroes, mixed quantum states, and code parse-able for human consumption. All Operations were nominal until a new daemon started to run.

Some new code slid in when one idiotic middleman searched for porn on his Comm implant, a nascent strip of script slipped itself inside in the form of a cookie and then went to work spreading to anything it was linked to, including his workstation. From there this daemon wormed its way throughout the infrastructure of the factory. The virus inject itself into and modified every program it could grasp onto covertly, right below the system watchdog's eyes. More importantly, though, it hit the schematics database. The solid states with miniature personality matrices for industrial bots, housekeepers, pet watchers, pets themselves, and more, redesigned and updated, all before being shoved right into the box, with infinite potential for self-realization.

Still, whatever weird fucker stuck their libido-increasing personality overwrite alongside a pool of porn vids for the said virus' neural network to generate the rewrites dynamically. Well, never underestimate what a nerd will do to get off. Making your sexbot capable of being considered a sapient being is just the kinda flex someone would want to post on the forums.
