'''Cores''' (also referred to as '''spheres''', '''personality cores/spheres''', or '''Aperture Science Artificial Personality Constructs''') are machines designed to house advanced artificial intelligence, mostly unique for their ability to express emotions. Cores generally come in two varieties: spherical and input. Spheres are the standard form, used as a standalone body for Personality Constructs and in android bodies like [[Atlas]]'. Input cores, by contrast, are elliptical in shape and are used for the [[Turrets#Sentry Turret|turrets]] and in android bodies like [[P-Body]]'s. Spherical cores that do not have limbs are generally attached to management rails in the [[Aperture Science]] computer-aided Enrichment Center.
