In 2.3 when it first goes online, he takes it very personally when people believe that the ADD has failed to work. This doesn't strike me as the reaction of someone who just told a team of designers and engineers what he wanted, and then let them get on with it. This is the reaction of someone who was intimately invloved in creating it, it's his 'baby', that's why he takes it personally.
That's totally how I interpret it too. It's clearly his 'pet project', and he's clearly been thrilled to have been given responsibility for it. And I reckon most of the others see it that way too. Cutter certainly defers to Connor on matters regarding the ADD (e.g. the spyware/virus), and I'n sure there's a scene in one ep where the siren goes off, and when they all congregate round the ADD a tech gets up and hands over control to Connor - that suggests that everyone thinks of it as 'his' (of course, I may have imagined that scene... *g*)
