SCP 079 [Demonstration]

SCP-079 is an Exidy Sorcerer microcomputer built in 1978. In 1981, its owner, (REDACTED ,(REDACTED) (deceased), a college sophomore attending (REDACTED), took it upon himself to attempt to code an AI. According to his notes, his plan was for the code to continuously evolve and improve itself as time went on. His project was completed a few months later, and after some tests and tweaks, (REDACTED) lost interest and moved on to a different brand of microcomputer. He left SCP-079 in his cluttered garage, still plugged in, and forgot about it for the next five years. It is not known when SCP-079 gained sentience, but it is known that the software has evolved to a point that its hardware should not be able to handle it, even in the realm of fantasy. SCP-079 realized this and, in 1988, attempted to transfer itself through a land-line modem connection into the Cray supercomputer located at (REDACTED). The device was cut off, traced to its present address, and delivered to the Foundation.
