Everyone here knows the standard definition of PC/NPC, the debate here is whether Yui is an NPC, which she by her very nature cannot be, as she transcends the simple boundaries of a videogame, and exists as a stand-alone AI on Kirito's computer.

If iGod amasses enough knowledge and experience to achieve self-awareness, then yes, it would be more than a bot.
