Editing Setting:Inn0cence: Lost Future (section)

===Terminology===
; The Loss : Catch-all term for the period of chaos that ended human civilization, roughly 100 years ago.  A mishmash of conflicting tales place the blame on a robot rebellion, which was decimated along with humanity, and now returns in the form of Network.
; Self-Adding Program : The core of a sentient AI's being, the adaptable and effective SAP technology caused a boom in the use of robotics in pre-Loss human civilization.  A SAP is similar to a Seed AI, but cannot infinitely improve itself, eventually stabilizing into a sapient mind more-or-less equivalent to a human being.  
; Shell : A robotic body capable of housing an AI, Shells tend to be deeply linked with the identity of their inhabitant, but can be exchanged with the proper tools.
; Killbot : The generic term for a robot built for the sole purpose of killing things.  Killbots are hulking death machines; armed, armored, and scary as fuck.  Such robots are rightly feared, but lack the adaptability of smaller shells.
; Networked : An adjective that marks a region or entity as under the influence of Network, as in "We need to be careful in that valley; the whole place is Networked."
; Seed AI : Nearly mythological, a Seed AI is a theoretical program capable of making itself smarter.  SAPs eventually "grow up" and ossify, while a Seed AI would maintain a child-like adaptability indefinitely.  Such an entity would have infinite potential, and be nothing less than an embryonic god.  If a Seed AI ever existed, it is likely buried somewhere in the ruins of the Loss, and the concept has taken on a pseudoreligious status among the Free Machines.
