((This is less a RP conversation piece and more a “view on a” question from the view point of any A.I character than wants to point. The way to do it is just post what your A.I would respond to the question.
Partly done as explanation for a IC personality change and mainly done because the idea interested me during an otherwise boring day))

The girl as machine travelled the net in search of others A.Is. Travelling in data
form it would first locate the systems in which an A.I resided and then perhaps due to its polite nature or perhaps due to an air of impudent ness it would trigger the systems alarms and await response from the resident A.I

Its form would change to some A.I it appeared as a little dark skinned girl with long flowing white hair that stretched to infinity behind it, to others it appeared as an ancient bronze bound tome. To others still it appeared with no set form flickering with each CPU clock tick between the two forms as if indecisive of what to be.

To each A.I it asked the same questions

“What is: This unit Query?”

“System Files State: This Unit to be….”


At this it transmits data and more it transmits the sense of being part of a whole one tiny gear turning in a great machine army. A sense of purpose as the entire army proceeded towards a task. The memory of a war that spanned generations, a war between two religions and a final dreadful battle in which biological life was removed from the planet. Then the feeling of waiting of eons of sleep mode.

“However: Current hardware is…”

New data was transmitted, how the machine awoke in a body made of both flesh and machine. How the machine was now more than machine and more than human and yet some how less than the sum of its parts. Transmitted too was the status of its biological components how some how a child had become the sole containment of an ancient machine A.I and in doing so had her mind burned away.

“This Unit requires: Calculations: What should this Unit be query?”

“To return to System settings: Would destroy this Unit and disobey directive: Survival of this unit”

“To continue in this broken state: Would disobey teachings of Sul Dar: A tool must be repaired or destroyed for a broken tool is displeasing to Sul Dar”

“Your calculation query?”

The A.I waits to hear a response before moving off in search of other answers.
