'Artificial: Remote Intelligence' Episode 3 Preview: It's time for the show to finally get on the road
Twitch's 'Artificial: Remote Intelligence' is all set to begin its story after using the first two episodes of the season to introduce the cutting-edge new features at the fingertips of the audience. This interactive web series has always been pretty innovative but now more than ever, with the current season being completely remotely produced.
Episode 1 introduced LifeScore, the fascinating new music scoring tool that uses the audience's chat to generate a unique soundtrack for the show. In Episode 2, the show introduced yet another new feature, worldbuilding episodes where the audience can create new characters for the show. After all that behind the scenes work, now it's time to get into the story proper. Tiffany Chu returns as the shell of the show's AI, though she won't be playing the Artificial Human Sophie Lin whom she portrayed in the first two seasons of 'Artificial'.
This season, we'll be encountering a brand-new lookalike AI whose name, personality and very sense of identity shall be shaped by the audience over the course of the season. We'll also be meeting an enthusiastic new character named Elle, played by Christy St John. Elle is described as a bright, quirky, and idealistic young scientist who will be guiding the new AI remotely as it learns to become more human. In Episode 3, we'll finally be seeing the new AI in action and we'll even get to name her (so far, we've just been calling her SV3, short for Sophie Version 3).
Of course, like always, the story is in your hands and your choices will determine what sort of a personality this fledgling AI will develop. Does the responsibility seem crushing? Or will you join us as we watch and shape the next episode of 'Artificial: Remote Intelligence'? Here's the official logline for the upcoming episode: "The story of 'Artificial: Remote Intelligence' begins when Elle, a bright young scientist, guides you, the Twitch audience, as she awakens SV3, a new AI with no memories and no personality. How will you define her?"
'Artificial: Remote Intelligence' streams live on Twitch every Thursday at 6 pm PT / 9 pm ET.
