{{spoiler|GLaDOS was a creation of [[Aperture Science]], a [[Cores|personality core]] designed exactly to be fitted as a central computer mainframe. The project began under the oversight of [[Cave Johnson]] over the company, and was an attempt to create a fully functional, advanced artificial intelligence which was originally intended to be occupied by Johnson as one of his attempts to cheat death. After it became apparent to Johnson that he may die of moon rock poisoning before development on GLaDOS would be completed, Johnson motioned for the personality core to be based on [[Caroline]] instead.}} | {{spoiler|GLaDOS was a creation of [[Aperture Science]], a [[Cores|personality core]] designed exactly to be fitted as a central computer mainframe.

After a decade's worth of hard work, GLaDOS was officially activated in 1998, as part of one of the many events during the company's "Bring Your Daughter to Work" day. Since she was able to take control of half of the facility's features, GLaDOS began killing most of its inhabitants by flooding the Enrichment Center with [[neurotoxin]]. However, only few if not only one of the staff such as [[Doug Rattmann]] had survived her attacks along with the series' main protagonist, [[Chell]]. The destruction of the company also coincided with an invasion of Earth, which had occurred two days after at Aperture's rival company, [[Black Mesa]]. This ultimately led to the negligence of the outside world from realizing Aperture's fate, as all attention had been diverted to Black Mesa and the aforementioned invasion. | After a decade's worth of hard work, GLaDOS was officially activated in 1998, as part of one of the many events during the company's "Bring Your Daughter to Work" day.
