Anyway, I think it would be interesting if the crew somehow got ahold of this ship (possibly whilst it was docked and un crewed? Because it will be a big warship they bring along an illegal AI ( illegal makes it cooler, maybe they have a tendency to go insane and think they're superior and kill people? So they only connect it in emergencies ideally) to run the systems. They break out, but their original plan o sell it or something is ruined by some cataclismic event. So they have to use the ship to accomplish something to survive etc. They maybe get pushed into unmapped areas colonized by savages and it's all on the run then.
I like the idea of a psychotic AI. All of this sounds like it'd make a good web series.

Inspiration. Watch it.

Also, there isn't a time limit on vids anymore (that I'm aware of... I've seen a couple hour-long vids here and there)

On this topic, I present this. I'm not advocating nyan cult, and I recommend you mute your speakers for sanity's sake, but that's beside the point.

Limit is normally 15mins but I'm a partner so I can do whatever.
But I'm not doing a three hour animation, maximum would be 5 to ten minutes an episode.
I also want to avoid cliches and try to create some realistic stories. I watch a lot of battlestar galactica

I agree. Cliche is typically bad.

I wouldn't go that far. We live in a world based on cliche and stereotypes, therefore many of our TV and movie characters fall into one or another, even if it's subtle.
