If it were an AI, not an SK, then it'd die. VR2.0 hints that AIs require
massive amounts of computing power. Fit that much in anything less than a
large room? I think not... As it is, they are supposed to run off several
servers at once, at least - more if it's trying to hide it's processor
usage. If it's an SK, then it's an SK in a robotic shell, not an android.
Androids are supposed to be fully intelligent, learning from and reacting to
all aspects of their environment. SKs don't.
