Abominable Intelligence (A.I. for short) is a term used by the Adeptus Mechanicus for a sentient machine.[1]
During the Dark Age of Technology, these intelligences rebelled against their human masters, leading to bloody wars. Since that time, and by a personal decree of the Emperor himself, it has been forbidden to fabricate or service those machines that are able to think and act independently.[1]
A.I. is not to be mistaken for the machine spirit that has parallels but basal differences - namely, no ability to enhance itself.[1]
List of A.I.
- Men of Iron
- Kaban Machine
- The Tabula Myriad
- Spirit of Eternity[2]
- Tuchulcha/Ouroboros/Plagueheart[3]
- Ob'lotai
- Chroxius Myriad
- False Necrons
- Ironkin, Ancestor Cores, and sometimes Fanes of the Leagues of Votann
