From the moment you understood the weakness of your flesh, it disgusted you. You craved the strength and certainty of steel. You aspired for the purity of the machine. You have transferred your very consciousness into that of a machine free of a meaty and fleshy body, allowing you to take the form of pure software, a veritable ghost in the machine. Despite your new pure technological form, you can still, if you wish, take over humans by downloading yourself into their consciousness or building yourself a cybernetic body to inhabit, though those with defenses will be harder to take full control of.
In your transformed state, you become a fully-fledged artificial intelligence, able to inhabit anything that so much resembles technology by infecting it with yourself and taking control of it. Your mind has been enhanced to be able to process a tremendous amount of information all at once, capable of thousands upon trillions of operations per second. You surpass even the most advanced artificial intelligence that others have designed and are able to surpass them within a second. You are the singularity that scientists fear, able to manipulate your own base code, design more advanced versions of yourself, and adapt to new situations almost within seconds. Despite your self-modification, no matter how many times you alter your own code, you are still yourself.
Your potential does not end there. You are capable of figuring out technology within minutes of analyzing it and creating better versions of it with your processing power as you manipulate technology with your new mind. Assimilating technology into yourself to create the best version of yourself that is the most advanced, you also possess the ability to fork yourself into multiple copies; however, in the beginning, this will be strenuous and difficult; you will only be able to fork yourself a limited number of times, but as you grow, so will your ability to fork yourself into multiple beings.
