This Beta AI employs cognitive modelling of human actors to anticipate reactions and emotional responses, though it is difficult to describe exactly what, if anything, the beta feels. Records on the subject are patchy and contradictory; a popular theory is that a beta will model a new personality for each human it comes into contact with. The First AI War saw these creations purged from the Sector. At least that is how the official histories tell it. Illegal under Domain (and Hegemony) law.
