Would it be too terribly far-fetched to imagine a doctor or someone with medical experience getting in on the fights?Also, in terms of AI, since you've said it isn't too terribly advanced, would they still be able to respond to commands given to them verbally?
Sure, just don't expect the AI to be something like Cortana. It'd be more along the lines of AI in early Ghost in the Shell, where they still are young and learning with bursts of development more than straight up being rapidly developed.
