Developed by [[Aperture Science]] technicians, [[GLaDOS]] is the earliest known personality core - specifically designed for becoming the Enrichment Center's overseer. The next cores developed were given the purpose of counteracting GLaDOS' psychotic behavior (such as flooding test chambers and other vital parts of the facility with [[neurotoxin]]) by integrating with her subconscious and altering her personality. | Developed by [[Aperture Science]] technicians, [[GLaDOS]] is the earliest known personality core - specifically designed for becoming the Enrichment Center's overseer.

Often present in the form of spherical shapes, these cores are a more simplistic design as their purpose had been more at hand instead. This contrasts with the majority of the designs of Aperture androids in the Enrichment Center that are personality core-based such as [[Atlas]] (enclosed core design), [[P-body]] (core inputs), and | Often present in the form of spherical shapes, these cores are a more simplistic design as their purpose had been more at hand instead.

{{spoiler|After the events of ''Portal'', it became apparent that some of the unused (deactivated) cores kept in storage have been automatically reactivated by the facility to maintain the Enrichment Center. Under extreme circumstances/time, these cores have been unable to compensate, and have failed to do so. Some cores become corrupted (the cause of which is unknown).}} | {{spoiler|After the events of ''Portal'', it became apparent that some of the unused (deactivated) cores kept in storage have been automatically reactivated by the facility to maintain the Enrichment Center.
