A series of mental checks were made as I confirmed the course the jet was to take. There was nothing complicated about it, just a series of instructions but that was not all that was uploaded to it, an algorithm made personally by myself was uploaded along with a nascent intelligence to monitor and learn. The intelligence would learn from both myself whenever I connected myself to the jet and by the jet itself.
While it would mostly learn from me, I wanted to introduce outside stimuli and the jet was perfect for that. If it could quantify and understand the data that was being sent from the sensors of the jet and by the autopilot itself then it would go a long way into developing its own consciousness.
