When creating a form of ArtificialIntelligence (usually some kind of robot assistant), one might want to avoid it being overly emotionless. So, in an effort to make it seem more human, you might program it to simulate helpful serenity. This includes remaining calm and friendly even after being insulted, receiving shocking revelations, or encountering frightening things. As a result, this cheerfulness can come off as creepy.
Notably, the fact that they're friendly doesn't mean they're [[BenevolentAI good]]. In some cases, they can [[TheComputerIsYourFriend escalate into full-on villainy]], while remaining [[AffablyEvil cheerful and smiling the whole time]].

The Heart of Gold's A.I.s were installed by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation, whose first attempt at Genuine People Personalities produced Marvin the Paranoid Android, a depressive, highly-intelligent robot whose behavior causes consternation from anyone he interacts with. To correct for this, future applications of GPP [[RestrainingBolt forced]] the A.I.s to have perpetually sunny and pleasant attitudes, which, people being what they are, was equally annoying in a different way.

** Eddie, your shipboard computer, who is also part of the Heart of Gold. He's feeling just great and he's sure he's going to get a bundle of kicks out of whatever program you care to run through him. He briefly undergoes a personality change, replaced with a nagging motherly personality that Zaphod Beeblebrox thought might work out better, but this one is quickly abandoned after it turns out to be ''worse''.
