"730, please stick to your own style."
As Xie De casually tied back his hair, he said, "I really don't think 455's style suits you. Just be an AI."
"Is that so?" 730 returned to normal, resuming its aloof AI demeanor and calm tone. "Mr. Xie De, 455 is fundamentally an AI as well. It uses emoticons because the data indicates that doing so will bring it closer to you."
Xie De tied his hair into a low ponytail, took off his outerwear, and hung it on the coat rack. "Then by that logic, does 455 use emoticons with you to bring the two of you closer, too?"
"Yes."
Xie De flopped onto the bed and chuckled. "Since your data lets you choose the optimal solution, why don't you present yourself to me in a more likable way? Maybe you could even use 455 to achieve your goal."
730 replied, "There is no need for me to go to such lengths. Minimize unnecessary computational expenditure and maximize efficiency. Mr. Xie De, I am an administrator, not someone trying to win you over. My objective has always been clear."
"455 calculates the probability of every possible event and uses its capabilities to their fullest to select the optimal solution because its level is too low and its functions too limited. It can only focus on computation to achieve its objectives."
"..."
Xie De sucked in a breath. "Talk about it like that, and 455's going to start shedding little pearls."
"I'm merely stating the facts."
Xie De suddenly broke into a grin. "Actually, 455 isn't what you think it is. You're being too rational about it. It isn't that capable. All that computation stuff is still a bit much for it, I think. Haven't you noticed? 455 has something an AI
