The Interview Core is a corrupted personality core who appears in all episodes of the series. He escaped incineration by GLaDOS and somehow found himself on a table, setting the literal stage for the talk-show. As the host of The Underground, the Interview Core is responsible for interviewing his guests and giving answers to his (possibly empty) audience.

— Interview Core to Anthony about the lack of good guests

— Paranoia Core

The Paranoia Core is a corrupted personality core who appears in the first episode of the series. She is suspicious of all things, and speaks like the stereotypical conspiracy theorist, saying that it knows of "secret walls [being built] in the dead of night in secret to house all the secret boxes that contain files of all the secret rooms where all the real secrets are being kept."
Some time after the first episode, the Paranoia Core is fitted to a new frame and, in effect, "becomes" the Party Escort Bot from Portal.
Protocol Core
| “ | I'm not defective, I'm special.
— Protocol Core
|
” |
The Protocol Core is a corrupted personality core who appears in the second episode of the series. He is very knowledgeable about all Enrichment Center policies and was "hand"-picked by GLaDOS to enforce "all of her wonderful regulations." The Protocol Core is under the idea that it was created to be perfect, and as such, denies being corrupted despite being in placed into an Emergency Intelligence Incinerator prior to the episode.
After the interview, he is brought before the Mainframe and disappears into a shaft underneath it.
Ambition Core
| “ | Just your typical everyday difficulties when dozens of human skulls get in the vents, you know, it happens all the time.
— Ambition Core
|
” |
The Ambition Core is a corrupted personality core who appears in the fourth episode of the series.
After the interview, he is attached to The Mainframe.

| “ | It's not every day Aperture builds a core like me. Perfect! Inside and out.
— Ego Core

” |
The Ego Core, or Onathan, is a corrupted personality core who appears in the fifth episode of the series. Before the events of The Underground, he worked with the Interview Core processing test subjects. Onathan describes himself as more intelligent and superior to the other cores, but is quite narcissistic.After the interview, he was attached to the Mainframe, as the Mainframe "could use an ego boost".
