Description: SCP-079 is a Sorcerer-brand microcomputer built in 1978 by the Exidy gaming company. It's owner, Michael Kosniak, purchase and modified SCP-079 in 1981 to house a primitive version of a Type-1 AI. Kosniak's intention was for it to continuously improve and evolve overtime.

Currently SCP-079 possess a vastly limited memory span, only being able to recall the last 24 hours. SCP-079 also posses a limited secondary memory card, capable of remembering beings or things considered particularly important by SCP-079.

Addendum-2082/04/12:

SCP-079 hold an almost fabled place in the Foundation's history. Like SCP-682 and SCP-076-2 before it, 79 is a reminder of the Foundation's earlier days, of an organization of men and women standing in darkness to protect those living in the light.

But the world has changed. Our organization, once a few dozen sites spread haphazardly across five continents has changed into an organization that reaches across this galaxy. We have a thousand sites across six planets, eight thousand anomalies counted and contained, and half a billion humans, Yeren, and various extraterrestrial species in our employment.

Once upon a time, SCP-079 was seen as a legitimate threat to the continued normalcy and well-being of humanity. Today, its programming is outmatched by the one in my coffee machine. No further value can be gained from continuing its containment.

SCP-079 will be available upon request to those wishing to examine it for scientific research, and for those who would wish to gaze upon our organization's humble beginnings.
