The AI persona core is a highly valuable component used to build the ship computer core, which is one of the ship parts required to get off the planet. It can only be found in an item stash world quest, or earned as a reward for completing quests for other factions.

The AI persona core can be installed into a pawn's brain through the operations menu. A pawn with the AI persona core installed in their brain will be enhanced in several ways:

  • x150% Pain
  • x150% Hunger Rate
  • x50% Tiredness
  • +50% Consciousness
  • +20% Blood Filtration
  • +20% Blood Pumping

However, similar to pawns with an unmet Luciferium need, pawns with an AI persona core installed in their brain will have psychotic wander mental breaks on an average of every 10 days and will have berserk mental breaks on an average of every 17 days. There is no way to stop these breaks short of downing, killing, or placing the affected pawn in a Cryptosleep casket. Because of this, it can be dangerous to install an AI persona core in a pawn if you are not ready to regularly defend yourself from the affected pawn, preferable without killing them. Additionally, if a soldier or doctor goes on a psychotic wander break during a time of crises, it can be fatal for your colony, though this is rare.

History

Prior to Beta 18, an AI persona core could be salvaged by destroying a psychic ship or found for purchase from an exotic goods trader.
