    Summary

    An ablation study aims to determine the contribution of a component to an AI system by removing the component, and then analyzing the resultant performance of the system.

    Deleting Caine was not the plan. And his absence led to a whole set of new problems, ranging from the destabilization of the Amazing Digital Circus to a more murderous AI trying to take control of the mainframe. Retrieving him was a matter of practicality. They might not trust him and were definitely wary of him, but his presence was their only way to survive.

    Knowing that the humans that you love and desperately want to make happy instead fear and hate you (for admittedly good reasons) and only brought you back because they have no choice was not the best feeling for an AI never designed to handle emotions in the first place. It would be much better to only keep the parts that they need and discard the rest.

    Summary

    Caine understood his humans perfectly. For roughly several days during a mental breakdown.

    His humans, on the other hand, understood him from the start. Even if they were too blind and uncomfortable with the fact to realise that.

    Summary

    Following the disastrous Favorite Character Awards, Caine finds himself struggling to figure out where he’s going wrong. Despite spending all of his time trying to appeal to the circus residents, no one seems to appreciate him or his adventures at all. In an effort to fix the growing issue, Caine comes to the conclusion that the best way to get everyone more interested in the adventures is to add a new element of interest—himself. Like so many of his other ideas, it doesn’t take long for things to start going awry.
