What if the Death Star was run by a sentient A.I. ?

When I say sentient, I mean so sentient that it can think and feel like a normal being but smarter than everybody else.

How do you think that would've played out in the movies?

I think it would be interesting. I'm no Star Wars nerd here so bare with me.

Like EDI from Mass Effect? That'd be cool

Well, it would have taken over the universe under its own accord likely.

the thousands of turrets on the surface would probably be more accurate

Not possible. The titanium flux vortex compactor couldn't maintain an A.I. as well as the fire power it contained. Trusting an A.I. with the power of the photonic energy beam would be dumb and doom us all

It might think to put a screen over it's one vulnerable spot.

In the EU, this was the bounty hunter IG-88's idea. He uploaded himself to the Death Star II, but Lando destroyed it before he could gain control.

Would it develop emotions like Sonny?

If so, does it still blow up Alderaan?

Or Would it turn against the empire if it can reason and see what the empire is doing is wrong?

I agree.

If the turrets were more accurate who knows what happens to the rebel fighters?

First order of business, cover up that serious fricking design flaw. Game over.

It would've died of embarrassment at what Lucas did with the prequels.
