This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Dennis E. Taylor Bob isn't an A.I., he's a replicant. It may sound like pedantry, but an A.I. would be built from the ground up to specs. A replicant (in the Bobiverse) is a copied human mind, so has all the limitations of the original, but is a speed superintelligence, which just means he can screw up faster.
