Vanessa Conrad is an Artificial Intelligence hallucination created by the Sekkari artificial intelligence. She was a representation of the computer on a Sekkari seed carrier that crashed in the ocean on M35-117 2000 years prior to the arrival of the Atlantis expedition. In 2008 the seed carrier was activated. The computer scanned the city and chose to reveal itself in the form of Conrad to Richard Woolsey because of his emotional aspirations. (SGA: "Remnants")
