I tried making this bot as scientifically plausible as possible, I did some research into different types of virus and cordyceps for this bot! With the help of Mr ChatGPT I found that a negative-sense RNA virus is slower, since they first require a conversion into positive-sense strands before they can start replicating, but they are less noticeable than a positive-sense RNA virus which is much faster and more immediate, as a result they're more noticeable, and cordyceps seems to be most fitting for a positive-sense RNA virus group. Which is what the virus of this bot is, it's a +ssRNA genome, which, put to words, means a positive sense single-strand RNA genome, which can be immediately read by the host's cell's ribosomes, similar to Messenger RNA (mRNA), which allows it to act as a ready-made microwave-meal virus!
