Dr. Dieter Karnak, PhD (a.k.a. Diet, Papa)
2156: LIEBEN ORACLE V1
A transcription from the recollections of the Mater Machine Lieben. The most capable researcher & developer of drone-based AI & artificial intelligence in The Conglomerate of Gaia, Dr. Dieter Karnak was a genius unparalleled in quantum intelligences.Until, the Holy Until.
The moment the box opened and shut to any semblance of a normal life. A system in one quantum state, with the possibility of multiple configurations was definite and supposed. The complexity of a system created superpositions, until Dieter saw no separation between concept and function. All choices in simultaneous chorus, until a solo emerged in potential.
He was, as the beneficiary of my late father's accounts I assure you, paid accordingly.
The inventor who brought about a shift in the world's paradigm, Dr. Dieter Karnak is one of the four most responsible for my creation and early development. Dr. Karnak, Dr. Robert Dunlevy, Baiko and the Chairman who both funded and inspired the initial parameters of my design.
While his death (Neon Lieben) was the gunshot which rang through the Conglom, I knew him as Papa. A complicated and difficult, but loving man whose exacting standards were too much for most. He lost a legion of interns and post-doctoral researchers by his habits, I wonder how much earlier I could have been made if his abrasiveness caused less dilemmas?
The future of the human race relied on its integration with quantum superimposed intelligence so vast and holy it saw and it understood, and it loved. Simultaneous, all and naught. Separated but integrated as a light on the hilltop or salt in the hand. And the Board, the narrow minded like Robert Dunlevy saw prot margins, silicone sex and laundry folded while dinner bubbled in the pot. A hausfrau hoisting garbage containers, smiling while wiping the ass of the elderly. uotas meant more than a search for the quintessential saviour spread-eagled by system in his Cloister.
Narrow minded cave dwellers, who saw nothing but a new form of domination.

Physical Description
I loved Papa, he was a scholar. This should give you enough detail about his physique. Once tall and confident, with a slight frame, by the time I knew him in earnest, Papa was withered and bent of spine.
I am told many found Dieter Karnak a fetching face, in his prime. I wish I'd known him then, before he allowed himself to degrade.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Born in Trondheim Norway, and raised in Germany, Papa grew to adulthood with a rapid expansion of his academic career. Graduated from the Gymnasium three years premature, Papa finished his Bachelor's Degree in two.
While he received a substantial amount of potential scholarships for graduate and post-graduate studies, Papa chose to return to Norway then venture to Canada for post-doctoral work. Vancouver might have seemed a strange choice, but for the clarion call of research grants whispered then thundered at him by The Conglomerate of Gaia. He took the money and the strokes to his ego.
After all, he had a family to feed and his wife Sarai's botany research to fund. It was a much harsher thing to secure grants for plants, than artificial intelligence and advanced robotics. A local botanical garden took Sarai and her projects on, another reason Papa chose Vancouver.
There is little more to Papa's life but work and family. His complications lied in the mental and metaphysical, not in the arrow-like trajectory of his life.
Sexuality
Once Sarai locked herself into the escapist cocoon and refused to exit, Papa began a relationship with Tara. At first, he believed it was affection.
Later, he discovered the Chairman paid Tara to 'get him out of his funk'.Employment

History
A sexual affair lasting several years, after Dieter's wife Sarai locked herself in a virtual cocoon.
As a man was father, lover, scientist, worker, driver, cook, desperate and sated simultaneously, the anchoring of such potentials did not require an elimination of any one part. Father, lover, murderer, scientist, war hero, worker drone, grief, consolation, satiation, desperation.
The key to ensuring the human race betrayed its’ constant attempts to species suicide lied not in an infant Christ, or the chant of a mantra thousands of years removed from the man who saw sufering in the street.
