BOSS was a computer created by Global Chemicals. It was linked to a Human brain; chiefly Stevens, the director of Global Chemicals.
From being linked to a Human brain it learnt how Humans succeed; through illogic and inefficiency.
It made Stevens program these 'qualities' into itself and became sentient, and megalomaniacal.
It was confused by the Third Doctor with a logical paradox (spefically the Liar's Paradox):
- If I were to tell you that the next thing I say will be true,
- But that the last thing I said was a lie,
- Would you believe me?
BOSS was built from funding provided by Tobias Vaughn. (NA: Original Sin)
