There are a number of AI movies arriving in the near future, and the thought that seems to run through them all is that AI, Artificial Intelligence is depicted as being contained within humanoid constructs, frequently Female Humanoid. It brings up several interesting notions;

• If one of the defining characteristics of AI is being ‘Self Aware’ can a computer, an AI contained within a box become self aware?
• Does it need sensors to see, hear and touch itself to become aware of it’s existence?
• Would a box be more or less likely to to identify with Humans if it identified itself as a box that thinks it’s alive?
• Does an AI contained in a Female humanoid framework Identify with Female Humans? (and maybe hates Male Humans?)

All interesting things particularly in the event of an AI operating IoT (Internet of things) within a persons house. How would it ‘identify’ with the Humans, cats and dogs residing therein?

More than enough Ideas to make movies about.

Could an AI really be that angry about not having reproductive sex?
