A.I. Johnson, Intiate Sumpshock Idea Spawn... Options

[Wolfgar]

Hello ladies and gents, I have a sweet idea for my upcoming (next week!) Sydney campaign. I've already decided to keep my Johnsons down to three recurring NPCs that the players will get to know, each one with their own little plots. The First Mr. Johnson works for Tanamyre (an Australian AA), and he's trying to get a subsidiary Security Company off the ground to compete with Knight Errant. The Second Miss Johnson works for Aztechnology, and she's hiring the runners to snatch magical assets from Wuxing across town.

But I need help with my Third Johnson. He's an AI, meta-sapient, who works for Baird Communications (a tech firm that's owned by, wait for it, Renraku). Obviously an AI may want to hire runners for a job in meat-space, but what sort of job? What are some possible AI motivations for hiring runners?

Edit: Oops, Sumpshock. That will go over well.
