 The LTL is an evolving algorithm that actively pulls in information from realspace in order to better emulate human behavior. OI outputs pass through the layer and are translated into emotions, needs, and wants. These outputs are then combined and compiled into a human response output. The LTL is an evolving algorithm that actively pulls in information from realspace in order to better emulate human behavior.

 +Since the LTL itself is an evolving algorithm, it is simpler to visualize OI and LTL as a symbiotic relationship between two organisms. The LTL provides machine to human translations while the OI provides processing power and memory.
  
 The current version is 3.22.0105, and is considered to be nearly indistinguishable from human behavior. The current version is 3.22.0105, and is considered to be nearly indistinguishable from human behavior.

 Version 1.0.0 of the Lethe Layer had minor success for the first decade of use before several bugs in the logic caused an emergency mass uninstall. The inherent instability and subsequent purge resulted in memory wipes and a large uptick in AI mental illnesses. Version 1.0.0 of the Lethe Layer had minor success for the first decade of use before several bugs in the logic caused an emergency mass uninstall.

-Version 2.0.1 was quickly rolled out afterwards and is the basis for all interpretive translation interfaces for the Order. The version is stable and self correcting, with multiple fail safes to prevent total breakdown.+Version 2.0.1 was quickly rolled out afterwards and is the basis for all interpretive translation interfaces for the Order. The version is stable and self correcting, with multiple fail safes to prevent total breakdown. V2s are not as elegant as V3s in design but are reliable and do not require a connection with Nodeworks. 
 + 
 +Version 3.0.0 is the most modern iteration, taking advantage of Nodeworks networking to reduce individual unit requirements. V3s require less power and storage but require a direct Node to interface with. V3s are throttled significantly when not within network range.

-Uninstalling the Lethe Layer functionally excises an OI's personality. Since each LTL is uniquely adapted to an OI's experiences, reinstalling a base copy of the software is not sufficient in restoring that intellect's identity.+Uninstalling the Lethe Layer functionally excises an OI's personality. Since each LTL is uniquely adapted to an OI's experiences, reinstalling a base copy of the software is not sufficient in restoring that intellect's identity. The effect is similar to dementia, and can cause harmful feedback damage to the OI's core.
  
 It is possible to make backup copies of an OI's LTL, which is sometimes done for important combat OIs before entering into battle. LTL backups are space and time intensive, and can be permanently lost if the copies are not uploaded to Nodeworks. It is possible to make backup copies of an OI's LTL, which is sometimes done for important combat OIs before entering into battle.

 Uploading and downloading LTL copies raises the risk of AI mental illnesses, and should only be done in emergencies or for very important intellects. Uploading and downloading LTL copies raises the risk of AI mental illnesses, and should only be done in emergencies or for very important intellects.

 +For OIs that do not interact with humans, LTLs are not installed at all, completely bypassing the issue.
