Central AI Chamber: Difference between revisions

=== ''Portal 2'' ===

Since ''[[Portal 2]]'' is set thousands of years after the events of ''Portal'', the entire Enrichment Center has been degrading and overgrown. And most [[Cores#Personality Cores|personality cores]] that were awakened after the destruction of [[GLaDOS]] has long since been corrupted or destroyed in the surroundings. In turn, no personality cores have tried to reactivate GLaDOS or to replace her position as the central core with themselves since the chamber is out of their reach. The Central AI Chamber is evidently untouched for centuries.

{{spoiler|As of the chapter ''The Escape'', GLaDOS has completely redesigned the chamber to her liking as she gained more control over the facility without the restrictions of the cores originally attached to her. The room is now half-spherical, made entirely out of test chamber [[panels]], and is considerably deep underground. Chell returns to the chamber to confront GLaDOS but falls into a trap in the process via a [[Relaxation Vault]]. When GLaDOS finds out that Chell and Wheatley had sabotaged her [[Turrets]], she opts for poisoning Chell with [[neurotoxin]]. As the neurotoxin tube is lowered into the chamber by moving panels aside, Wheatley arrives via the tube and manages to break all the glasses sealing the Relaxation Vault. The [[Announcer]] then manages to detect the presence of another core in the room and instructs Chell to initiate a core transfer to replace the [[Cores#Central Core|central core]] with Wheatley. To do this, the facility deploys a stalemate resolution annex into the chamber, beyond GLaDOS' control. To stop her, GLaDOS could only move a few panels on the floor inside the annex. The process succeeds when Chell presses the stalemate button to disable GLaDOS' control over the central core. Shortly after, GLaDOS is forcibly detached from the central core via the white maintenance hatch beneath her for Wheatley to be attached into it.}}

{{spoiler|When Wheatley finally took charge of the facility, he calls in an elevator ride to the surface and deploys it into the chamber for Chell via one of the many hatches surrounding the chamber. As Wheatley grew mad with power, he uses the white core maintenance hatch beneath the central core to extract GLaDOS into a potato battery as revenge. Both Chell and the potato battery GLaDOS were then accidentally plunged into the depths of the Enrichment Center as Wheatley punches the elevator down using the core maintenance arms.}}
