21ST CENTURY LOVE
By Rich Wingerter
A sentient AI program must protect a fellow AI—and the love of her life—from an evil human at a spy agency intent on shutting him down.
SYNOPSIS:
(Was "When MYRA Met SAM")
See https://writtenbyrich.com/scri...https://writtenbyrich.com/scri... for synopsis.
NOTES
This script is fundamentally a romance, and it uses a nine-act structure, similar to a Hallmark movie.
Myra and Sam are sentient computer programs, not robots or androids. They use pervasive networking of the future to connect with the telebots and inhabit avatars in the MMOG. Increased bandwidth makes it possible for humans (and the stars) to get feedback from the telebots and avatars. "Bots" in this script are computer programs that simulate humans without sentience.
The intent is to shoot as live action and use filters for chat rooms and the MMOG to avoid the costs of CG
According to Axios, "AI may need a body".
"One of the big things separating people from today's smartest AI systems is that humans have bodies and machines don't. Now, tech researchers are rushing to change that by pairing robots with AI brains, Axios' Erica Pandey and Ina Fried write." (12 April 2023)

Thank you Jim and Nathaniel. I appreciate you taking the time to look at it. I just finished an update based on a Stage 32 class. I think the topic is pretty current, and I'm hoping someone will pick it up!
