	Short-term memory loss is also an option. When resisting these urges, use the target’s missing hits on the resistance test as the threshold, or as the threshold to recall forgotten memories with a Memory Test.

	The AI may load this preset with a Complex Action at any point within the next (Depth) Combat Turns. Doing so instantly restores the saved state, including attributes, programs, MARKs, and Overwatch Score exactly as they were when the preset was saved. Loading advanced programs from the Configurator preset will trigger OS increases as normal, even if they had been accounted for in the existing OS value.

 When running an Advanced Program, it occupies the same program slot as its parent program and continues to provide the same benefits in addition to its unique function. When loading an Advanced Program, the AI immediately suffers an OS increase equal to its Depth Rating. All increases to OS caused by the passage of time are also increased by (Depth x number of Advanced Programs loaded), making Fly on a Wall a favorite among AIs.

+| If having a disgusting physical piece of hardware for your superior software intellect is too repulsive, fear not! For the low, low price of begging the local host admin to let you squat in their host, you too can turn a host into your home device! It doesn’t give you full admin access, but effectively lets you have three MARKs at all times to your home host. As long as you don’t perform illegal actions on the admin, the host spiders or any files therein, they’re likely to let you do as you please. The Foundation is still a dangerous place, even for you. So why take a host as your home?

	==Optimizations==		==Optimizations==
			One of the nice things about AIs is their tendency to optimize their stomping grounds. This can lead to some mind-boggling performance boosts that regular Matrix programmers haven’t fully reverse engineered yet.

			<blockquote>
			An AI can typically optimize their home device once during their daily realignment process. Once set, this optimization persists as long as the AI realigns in the device daily; missing a realignment within its home device causes optimizations to fail as the equilibrium is no longer maintained.
			<br>
			<br>
			After hitting the big leagues, however, an AI may choose to pull some more power out of its hardware. When maintaining a High Lifestyle, an AI may optimize <strong>two</strong> features of its choice and at Luxury <strong>three</strong> features at once. The AI cannot optimize the same attribute/feature more than once. Note: this feature is tied to the Lifestyle module tied to AIs listed in the previous chapter.
			<br>
			<br>
			{\| role="presentation" class="wikitable"
			\| <strong>Attribute</strong> \|\| <strong>Optimization Boost</strong>
			\|-
			\| A/S/D/F Matrix Attribute \|\| +(Depth / 2)
			\|-
			\| Handling \|\| +1

			\| Pilot \|\| +1
			\|-
			\| Acceleration \|\| +1
			\|-
			\| Sensor \|\| +1
			\|-
			\| Autosoft Slots \|\| +1
			\|}
			<br>
			<strong>Note:</strong> Optimizing a single Matrix Attribute counts as its own optimization. For example, in a Luxury lifestyle the AI may optimize three of its four Matrix Attributes at most.
