** It's not very widespread outside of plain utility purpose, however. To communicate with "meatspace" AI commonly use a tiny floating projector with [[Projected Man|holographic avatar]], which can be as articulate and variable as necessary. Most actual work, rather than piling all the eggs into basket of [[Master Computer]], usually is delegated to small local systems, such as fabber bots for construction and fully autonomous tactical robots for fighting - after all, specialization is an advantage - under general oversight of a "larger" AI. One limitation is the time necessary to grow and properly test a new individual AI, which depends on the complexity - it's a problem with warship grade AI, but not much with lesser vehicles or run-of-the-mill repair bots, even the talking ones.
** So far there were {{spoiler|King Lota}} and "a platoon of armed avatars" acting as top-security marines on board of a [[The Battlestar|battleplate]].
** Chinook controls a space station the size of a planet, so technically most unattached robotics there are included, but some of it was taken elsewhere. The new additions include Crypt Spiders working as mind-record archivists and occasionally doubling as general-purpose remotes, and later a robotic "representative" type [
* ''[[Freefall]]'' has some AI using remote bodies, especially when the "main" one is a vehicle [http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff2100/fc02049.htm] [http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff2800/fc02782.htm].
