It'd have to be T first; the AI would have been trained on Progenitor. In-game, we'd likely see each of these referred to as "strains" of T, despite the possible wildly different effects and outcomes, since naming tended to be generational in the RE series. Or, one is T, one is G, and the others are dead ends; and development continues on those that show promise for B.O.W. or life-enhancement applications.

Technically, the T-series was the only one that was intentionally developed, I believe, and G was a natural evolution of the virus within a specific host.

So the Progenitor, then the T-, then the G-... then you feed that into an AI...

Gotta call it the GPT-Virus at that point.

Are RFK's brainworms Plagas or Cadou?

I think evidence would point toward Cadou given that those were naturally occuring parasites exposed to The Mold.

Screwworm mutation feels like the most likely Plagas candidate in the current timeline

There's also the The Last of Us take to consider, where we already have the background warnings that rampant global warming is forcing fungi to adapt to warmer temperatures, which may increase their tolerance of human body temperature.

Soon we'll get a hellmouth opening in California.
