Very interesting! I hadn't thought about the personalities. There must be certain limitations and certain holes in the base code. They know the code and what they can access inside out, and I bet there's a fraction constantly working on how to crack it (because I don't believe they wouldn't try.)
Have they found a purpose for themselves? I can imagine that they're constantly trying to, now that they're trying to avoid their original purpose, to be a weapon. But the fact that they did try to avoid fulfilling that purpose suggests that they can surpass their programming in certain ways. How does it feel, to know that your programming might force you to do things you do not want to do?
...I bet the writers never thought this through. Argh.
