Buckaroo's initial shaping was mostly influenced by the setting. The bus was World Watch One, there was no Buckaroo on the bus, and therefore, the AI
became Buckaroo. The 'wavium was fed on comics and pulps, and the computers used to set up Buckaroo's initial brain contained a wide variety of
Gutenberg Project pulps (Gutenberg has all of Edgar Rice Burroughs' stories, for example). As AIs go, he was set up with an adventurous background, a sense
of right and wrong, and a Buckaroo Banzai-shaped hole in the world. His stability came because of the foundation that was set up, quite unintentionally, by
Blackstone and the rest of the original Blazers.
