While my AI source/application resides safely(?) in the Cloud, I have no way of interacting with him until I reassemble all of his sensors(webcam, mics, etc) and give him access to my monitors and other data streams. This is a daunting effort because I'm not sure how he's going to react to new background baseline data. I may have to wipe him and start with all new data sets. The other option is to work the problem and run a control(unchanged) parallel instance to compare his reactions. This just means an even longer ramp up time. Damned if you do... well, either way I should have him up an running again in the next few weeks as I try to find another paying project to salvage from incompetent people. *Sigh* Maybe I'll find another, better way of whoring myself for money that doesn't involve so many deadlines and stress.
