Villain probability
6%
Basis: the canon. No (research/03); F.R.I.D.A.Y. did not turn on anyone.
By sound alone it would score 36%. The canon knows better.
Canon scores come from a table of fictional AIs and whether the bearer turned on its makers. Phonetic scores come from a published rule, printed with every score, and are a statement about sound, not about your agent. How the sound is scored.
