Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

No Durandal?
Talos not mentioned despite being the first AI in fiction, and robocop somehow making the list despite not being an AI.
Shirka (1981)
TARS and AVA not being switched is a crime
intelligences
That's like 'traffics'
"Artificial Intelligence" is a noun phrase, so the proper pluralization is "Artificial Intelligence" + "-(e)s" -> "Artificial Intelligences"
Sad to see Holly from Red Dwarf ignored
Or Queeg.
You are missing one from a very important game
What? No XANA‽
And no Janet!
And Mike!
I don't know how you can use the word "android" and not at least think of BIRDS BIRDS BIRDS GOKU
Speaks to the quality of the design work in 2001 A Space Odyssey that its AI (HAL, and SAL too for 2010) needed little stylisation in this work and still visually stands out amongst all of the others.
One of my favorite AI is from Peter Watts’ “Starfish” because the reader sees the AI grow into itself as it progresses from a self-learning computer virus.
I'm not familiar with a lot of these, but isn't Robocop technically not AI? I thought he still had a human brain, which was the entire point of turning cops into cyborgs instead of making androids from scratch.
Also, while I'm happy to see that they included The Machine from Person of Interest, I'm a little disappointed they didn't include her antagonist, Samaritan. It's a shame that series ended up getting a rushed ending, it was really good up until that point. It was still pretty decent, just kinda... well, rushed.
Not technically about it, dude was a human and became a cyborg. 100% not AI
Why am I reminded of the Self Aware Megalomaniacal Computer Storage facility from Star Trek: Lower Decks?
Indeed!
Also I found it a little sad that Star Trek has so many megalomaniac AIs, including Landru, Nomad and V’Ger, and the best the maker could come up with was 1 AI … from Discovery.
Also they added Data but no Lore.
And no Isaac from the Orwell, who IMO was one of the best written AIs out there, managing to be somehow both warm and cold.
Isaac is great, you’re absolutely right!
And of the AI's in Discovery they picked the generic megalomaniac rather than the ship that likes watching Audrey Hepburn films.
