The Omnimous still didn't know what to think of Sylas. By the time he chose to abandon the AI enhancement path of doing things, Sylas had gone so far down the rabbit hole that the Omnimous' internal memory—those that remained anyway—was already beginning to trigger.
Sylas' last idea before he abandoned everything was actually a form of body mutation. Rather than only relying on the AI alone, he planned to not only commandeer other sections of the brain, but even the body itself.
There were large segments of the brain completely devoted to other matters—for example, keeping the heart pumping, or emotional regulation, or fear responses. Not everything was related to memory and intelligence.
