Kermit's AI Application

BYOND Key: Sadkermit
Discord Name/ID: kermit#4941
Borg/AI Names: None that I've played in the past 2 years. Current name for an AI is Augur, though I may change it on a whim.
Have you read the Aurora wiki page about the AI?: Numerous times, yes.

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?:
The role of AI has always seemed interesting to me, though I never had the chance to give it a go before the need for a whitelist was imposed on the role, mostly because I lacked confidence in my skill set at the time. Since then, I've now been able to branch out and play each department for a considerable amount of time now to understand how they function, and so I'm more confident in my abilities to play an artificial intelligence as I'm a more seasoned player - I no longer have so many gaps in departmental knowledge. Regarding the stress of the role, which was also a concern I had before and one which is always worth acknowledging, main'ing Captain in medium-sized bursts really hardened my shell and expanded what I can tolerate, so I don't believe that's so much of an issue anymore.

Observing certain AI mains in the past also made me realise the potential for roleplay the role of an AI had beyond some detached and omni-present entity, especially through the use of the holo-pads. I'd quite like to be able to see what I can do with the tools given, and whether I can play an AI which both functions well, acts as a bastion of knowledge, but can also raise the spirits of a department when everything's quiet. More so now that my time-zone falls into dead-pop, making it difficult to interact with the other 2 or 3 people on-station who are busy in their department.

I also enjoy being able to craft stories with antagonists and, just like Captain, the AI is another frequent target, so, by playing AI, I hope I get more opportunities to work alongside antagonists to help develop any stories they wish to tell during their round, then, as I become more confident in my AI play, perhaps expanding upon a framework they give me to create my own twist or development to their story with the aim to involve more of the players in-round, if possible. 

Have you received any administrative actions? And how serious were they?: I haven't received any bans or warnings. I may have a few notes, though any I do have are likely not serious. Certainly nothing in the past year.

Do you understand your whitelist is not permanent, and may be stripped following continuous administrative action?
Of course.
