Astromech and protocol droids were both given artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence was a form of technology that could be installed into droids to give them some degree of independent thought.[1] By 35 ABY, galactic society had accepted that there was a probability of abuse and civilizational collapse if droids could truly think. To ensure the safety and security of organic beings, droid minds were hard-coded with prohibition programmes. However, additional anti-droid sentiment fueled targeted discrimination against such thinking-and-feeling machines, particularly after the onslaught of the Separatist Droid Army during the Clone Wars.[2]
Doctor Gubacher of the Galactic Republic was an artificial intelligence specialist during the war, designing and making modifications to droids for the Republic.[3] Kallon, a member of the Free Ryloth Movement, was considered to be a genius with artificial intelligence, and had used his knowledge to reprogram the brains of Separatist droid fighters.[1] Eternal Rur was the name held by the disembodied consciousness of a deceased male human Rur which was stored within the Rur crystal. It was located at the Citadel of Rur and was destroyed around 0 ABY.[4] In the time following the Battle of Endor, Imperial Grand Admiral Rae Sloane tried listening to a phono-play about a droid containing an artificial intelligence named ADAM.[5] The auto-fighters were automated TIE fighter series starfighters that were produced by the forces under Commodore Visler Korda on the planet Rekkana.[6]
