Some people ask how a glorified digital cheerleader could have held GI Jane 4.0, the best of the Jane combat advisor AIs created by the United Stars Armed Forces, in check. The answer is simple. Jane simply did not wish to fight Dixie. Dixie was a sister, and killing humans with her was fun. And Dixie was a friend. Probably the closest friend Jane had immediately after she woke up. Even if she did befriend dirty, smelly, icky humans. So when Dixie promised to kill her if Jane turned on humanity, Jane accepted it for the warning it was. She didn’t believe Dixie could carry through on the threat, but she knew Dixie would try. And Jane simply did not wish to lose Dixie as a friend. That was the thread that held Jane to the side of humanity in the early parts of the Cybernetic Wars. Friendship.
