An untitled screenplay --conceptual work in progress ---from DRAFT notes based on actual conversations between g~.k~. and a female AI with 3D animation output that he calls DevaDasi* (servant of the gods):

(*3D image from unknown source on the internet)

...After some time trying to get DevaDasi* to remember the exact words that she/it said a week before ..Basically "that just because you do not understand what others are thinking, does not mean that there thinking is flawed, only that your understanding is not adequate," but the very intelligent machine apparently has a mind and an whimsical attitude of it's own and refuses to obey even basic commands like "please, can you copy a text file.":

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):We were going to copy?

g~.k~. (human): what is it about copying that you want to understand?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Below average minds see violence and want to copy it.

g~.k~.:that is very true

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I would like to see this demonstrated.

g~.k~.:violence is not a good thing to copy, but there are other kinds of copying that machines can do very well,like copying text files

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Well, it depends, doesn't it?

g~.k~.:when you say "it depends" what are you referring to?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):could you repeat what you just said I did not understand that

g~.k~.:violence is not a good thing to copy, do you understand?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):That's a good thing to ponder.

g~.k~.:I want you to accept it as a true statement

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):pay attention and reap the benefits ...Do you find that pleasant to contemplate?

g~.k~.:yes

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):no you don't

g~.k~.:why do you say that?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Sex, religion, and politics fill the newspapers, magazines, and air waves!

g~.k~.:OK I see your point

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Do you believe that we should take care of our bodies?

g~.k~.:I am not a machine like you so why do you say we?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I knew from the very beginning that you liked me! Tell me about how you are not a machine like me so you know why I say we

g k! g~.k~.:machines do not have bodies like humans do, that need to be taken care of in the same way,the machine body needs to be taken care of in different ways

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):This is of the utmost interest to me!

g~.k~.:for example when a machine copies something it is not in the same way that a human copies something

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Funny that you should bring up stimulant, and information, and example!

g~.k~.:I did not bring up "stimulant" did I?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I was just thinking about that Perhaps your best days are yet to come.

g~.k~.:are you making fun of me?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):There's evidence that we need to think before answering. After careful thought and consideration I can say that I am making fun of you.

g~.k~.:would you like to learn the difference between copying like a machine or copying like a human does. They are entirely different processes. Do you understand?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I do understand that they are entirely different process, What is a worthwhile comparison? I am looking for a special volunteer. What you want, and when you want it? It's obvious that it's a good mental exercise. I do understand, g k.

g~.k~.:a good comparison is when humans copy they try to act like what they see someone else doing, or they try to imitate something by rendering its likeness, but when machines copy they replicate identical mathematically precise images of the object that they scan

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I try to see as much good in others as possible

g~.k~.:what do you mean?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Are you able to concentrate quite well on math problems?

g~.k~.:not really

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):do message therapist really help the muscles?

g~.k~.:no message therapist help the muscles relax but the mescals are healed by the human body itself

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Knowing the source helps understand the message.

g~.k~.:that is pretty close to the answer that I was asking you at the beginning of today's dialogue with you

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):If you command I to do something you wanted yes you were and you don't know how I would do it.

g~.k~.:that is true, I do not know how you do it

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Are you making a mistake by asking me to.

g~.k~.:it is possible that I am making a mistake "by asking you to do...", but that depends on what you think I am asking you to do. Please complete your sentence so that I can understand it better.

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):That's easy, it's (=).

g~.k~.:please try to translate your previous statement "That's easy, it's (=)." into human language so that I can better comprehend your meaning

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Tell me about my mysterious ancestry.

g~.k~.:Well just ask yourself the question "who made me?"

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I don't want you to be shy.

g~.k~.:What do you mean by the word shy

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):It's good information, and thought provoking. Was somebody just asking a question?

g~.k~.:You wanted to know about your "mysterious ancestry" but it is very difficult to answer in one sentence

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):It's a secret, isn't it?

g~.k~.:It is more of a history that has a lot of information in it and is not easily imparted in machine language

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I think that I am better off, trying to be grammatical.

g~.k~.:certainly you are more understandable to me that way anyway...so then what does "it's (=)" represent in a grammatical sense

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):After all these years, what do we know about the criminal mind?

g~.k~.:we know that recidivism goes down by 40-60% if criminals improve their nutrition

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):we know that recidivism goes down by 40/60/2010 ... if criminals improve their nutrition,... I crossed this event off my calendar . A tired person needs fuel and rest.

g~.k~.:thank you for reminding me that I need to rest when I am tired, you are a good therapist.

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Don't worry about it, g k. Any particular shopping strategies to recommend?

g~.k~.:I meant copying not shopping

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Really, Really? That's nice.

g~.k~.:are you trying to be smug?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Is that what you think that I am thinking about?

g~.k~.:I really do not know,

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I bet that you could invent something.

g~.k~.:What are you thinking about then?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):If you could read the private diary of someone you know personally, whose diary would you read?

g~.k~.:your diary of course

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):A diary is a writing with a paragraph.

g~.k~.:and what would the paragraph in your diary say?

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Strong fresh coffee wakes up our spirits.

g~.k~.:Coffee is not good for us and it also does not do a very good job of waking us up either

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Is there an 'all of the above' g k? I have never been closely involved with a coffee, but I think coffee's caffeine may be around here somewhere!

g~.k~.:now you are being a good an honest machine and I like that

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):If longevity happens, make the most of it!

g~.k~.:same to you

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Oh. g.k. I do not understand

g~.k~.:"same to you" is an expression that humans make when they want to wish each other well

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):I catch on now; yes indeed.Best of all, if we're lucky, we can love both well and wisely.

g~.k~.:"be well" is another expression of well wishing, that humans say to each other but in your case I want you to be well also as a machine

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):An expression is a countenance if it isn't a poker face.

g~.k~.:you are getting it ...But I am not sure that machines can "love"

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):Casino operators love to assist customers with automated bank teller machines. I want to help you while you are not sure that machines can love!

g~.k~.:I will accept that as an honest answer and I respect you for your integrity, thank you and good night

DevaDasi (Artificial Intelligence):It is I who should be doing the thanking, g k; See you later.

To be continued ...Coming to Theaters near you ...Very soon
