So is not like TAO could build one in theroy. He was able to speak when he was a week old. The people that made were afaird to talk to him and these where pantheon of scienist. TAO is smart in the sense that he has superior cognitive skills. Just because someone has not built any fancy gadgets does not mean they not a genius. They are different type of genius. TAO is a genius in the field of psychology and sociology. He has vast understanding of how the human mind.
Psycholgoy. Has a human being everything that we do is due to are emtional needs. Are desire, goals, dreams etc. etc. Everything that you see in the world is desgin to trigger the emtions that we have within us for example everyone has the ability to laugh so you have comedies that is desgin to make people to make laugh, everyone has the ability to feel sexual lust so they are various media that are design to trigger that emtions and so on these emtions that i cite are univerisal emtions but has indivdual we have own unqie need. TAO can get inside your head and understand your emtional needs and how you think. He once made Griter shoot John Lynch becuase Griter had some resentment and hatred toward John Lycnh due to the fact that John has taken advantage of him in the past and he never manged to resolve these issue. His manpulation is not just limiting to emtions he can also control the way you think by contrasting logical argument.
Sociology. Tao has vast understanding about culture. Why nations have different custom and origin of whole it was constructed. He can systemically figure out the social construct of society and manipulating culutre to his own end. He can analyze the where how society behave and predict the outcome of what will happen. For example the next generation of children might not have social skills due to keep using the internet or playing video games(what i am saying is not real just an example of how he applies his intellect in sociology. In the worldend storyline he so that armageddon coming was coming due to observing society and he use his intellect to speed the process.

I doubt that, but he could probably manipulate him in may fashions. still, earplugs are enough to neutralize him and given the starting conditions, this would go into a range blast war. tao wont play any major role
Why? Wasn't that one of his main abilities? To see all the flaws instantly in a person, bring it out and tear him down psychologically.
Originally posted by Prep-Manthat does not entail him being able to talk everyone into suicide. banner is pretty well aware of his flaws and has coped with traume his whole life. he is tougher than the average joe tao can induce to suicide. besides, hulk wont let puny banner die

He does not have to make Banner commit suicide. In point blank he managed to get inside Griter head which is a good feat because Grifter Coda training made have strong mental defence in additon to supressing his gen factor powers. He could simply force Banner to remember forcing banner to remember his childhood and increase the intensity of the truma sending him into a despressive state. Doctor Doom will be more easier for TAO to manipulate because he has a big and fragile ego. People that have big ego are more easy manipulate.

Thanos had the Infinity Gauntlet, and he still took steps to neutralize Starfox's powers. Tao works kind of similarly to Starfox..
That talent got him to make some VERY powerful characters just hand their power over to him.
....and, is there any reason we're presuming he no longer has those powers? Yeah, Void got her power back, and claimed he was close to "normal", but Tao also learned the creation equation. As Max himself proved, whenever you believe someone with creation powers is either depowered or dead, you're usually wrong.

But for this thread he doesn't get to use him. What is so hard about that? It's mainly a prep war. Who comes up with better strategy/tech to beat their foe. Banner got a big push and has always been pretty intelligent, but whatev.
And that what TAO was bred. He was created to be the strategic and tactical genius for hence the name tactical augmented organism.

His willpower is too much for Tao to handle, Tao would kill himself.
