A.I. Mom
It was mid-afternoon, Tony Parsons was working in his lab assembling his latest model, number 16. He had begun developing AIs seven years earlier after graduating from MIT. At age 30, he was secretly and single-handedly creating the most advanced AIs on the planet.
"Sir, there is someone at the front gate of your residence."
"I'm not expecting anyone. Who is it?" Tony asked.
"It appears to be your mother, sir."
"My mother?"
"Yes, sir."
"Oh shit! Have 14 put herself away. Activate 10 and have her show my mother in."
"Instructions sent and acknowledged, sir."
"Thank you, Carol. We'll need to go to my house. Monitor 10. I need to know why my mother's here."
"Yes, sir."
"This is a fucking nightmare."
"No, sir. You are not sleeping."
"It's a figure of speech, Carol. Check your linguistics module."
"May I inquire why it is a 'fucking nightmare'?"
"I don't think my mother seeing an AI that looks like her would sit very well."
"Another figure of speech, I presume?"
"You presume correctly. Review incest. That should clear things up for you."
"Since 14 is an AI, and you are not actually related, it would not be incest."
"No, but it would still appear that way."
"I see, sir. Your mother has three large pieces of luggage with her. It appears she is planning on an extended visit."
"Not necessarily. She takes two suitcases to go to the grocery."
"For what purpose, sir?"
"I'm being facetious, Carol."
"Very well, sir."
Although Carol, number 15, was his latest and most advanced AI, she was essentially a newbie. Her appearance was that of a sophisticated human female, with perfect movements. Having only been around Tony, she wasn't aware of the way people used language so randomly. If Tony suggested she take a flying fuck, she would have asked from what perch. All the AIs were that way initially but learned quickly. The ones numbered 9 or greater, at least.
Carol had only been activated for about a month. He modeled her after a young Jane Seymour. She was five-five, a hundred twenty pounds, small breasted but appropriate for her body size. Carol was slim and shapely. She had brown hair that reached just past her shoulders, brown eyes, and a beautiful face. Her movements were so human, Tony doubted anyone would suspect she wasn't flesh and blood. Carol was also fully functional as a female. Her mouth, vagina, and rectum had enhancements that human females didn't. Having sex with her was a life altering experience. Tony tested her personally. Taste was her biggest shortcoming. Tony had gotten the texture, timing, and release of body fluids perfectly, but she didn't taste like a woman. She was bland, but if instructed to do so, she could taste like cherry, vanilla, or mint. He was working on that problem.
They walked to the parking area and got in the car. Carol drove. Being an AI, she was an excellent driver. Tony and Carol entered the house from the garage and were met by number 10, Sonja, another AI, at the door.
"Welcome home, sir," she said.
"Thanks, Sonja. Where's my mother?"
"I showed her to the guest quarters. She is freshening up."
"Was she stale?" Carol asked. Tony looked at Carol with a confused look. "An attempt at humor, sir," she said.
"Close but no cigar," he replied, smiling.
"Smoking is unhealthy, sir," both AIs said simultaneously.
"Right, thanks."
"Sonja, where is 14?"
"She is currently in the coat closet. She has herself in sleep mode."
"Tonight, after my mother goes to bed, have her move to the playroom. I'd prefer my mother not be aware of her existence."
"Yes, sir."
"How did my mother respond to you?"
"She seemed very surprised, sir."
"Did she pick up that you're an AI?"
"I don't believe so, sir."
"Then why was she surprised?"
"I had been disinfecting myself before she arrived and answered the door in a state of complete undress."
"That would surprise her alright."
"Yes, sir. She was quite surprised."
"Did she ask about it?"
"No, sir. She did ask if I was your latest hooker."
"And you said?"
"I assured her that I was not a hooker, but that I was fully capable."
"Shit," he said, frustratedly.
"Sir, I don't have that capability," Sonja replied.
"Carol, remind me after my mother leaves to upgrade 10's interaction and communication modules."
"Yes, sir," Carol replied.
"Sonja, when my mother comes down, she'll want a glass of Rose' wine. I'd like a whiskey sour."
"Yes, sir," she replied, then turned and walked away.
Being an older model, Sonja's more robotic movement would have likely given her away. Her speech was also a little lacking.
Tony turned to Carol. "I suspect my mother has figured out that Sonja is an AI. I'm hoping she won't discover that you are. I'm going to tell her you're my personal assistant."
"How should I address her, sir?"
"Mrs. Parsons. Her first name is Shirley."
"Very well, sir."
"And don't call me sir. Refer to me as Tony."
"Yes, Tony."
They both heard the click of her heels on the tile floor as she entered the room. Tony smiled and walked to her.
"Hi, mom. Welcome to California," he said, as he hugged her.
"Hi sweetheart," she replied, looking him over. "You're looking good. I think California agrees with you."
"It does. You're looking as beautiful as ever," he replied.
She was. At fifty-one, she was still a MILF. Her sandy blonde hair surrounded her oval face perfectly. Her green eyes sparkled. She had a body that women much younger would die for.
Sonja walked up. "Tony's mother, here is your wine," she said, offering the glass.
Shirley smiled and took the glass. "Thank you."
"You are quite welcome, Tony's mother," she replied, handing Tony his whiskey sour.
"Call me Shirley, please."
"Yes, Shirley. You may call me Sonja or 10."
"So, you are one of my son's robots?"
"I am not a robot, Shirley. I am an artificial lifeform, model 10."
"You look very human."
"I was modeled after Heidi Klum."
"You do have one hell of a body," Shirley replied. "Tony, are all your robots' supermodels?"
"They're AIs, mom, not robots. Robots are machines. My AIs are made from electronics and synthetics."
"You didn't answer my question."
"I model them after real people. Sonja is the only one that I used a supermodel for."
"All women, I suppose?"
"So far."
"Who is this?" she asked looking at Carol.
"Mom, this is Carol Simm. She's my personal assistant. Carol, my mother, Shirley Parsons."
"Mrs. Parsons, I am very pleased to meet you," Carol said, stepping up and offering her hand.
Shirley took her hand and held it as she scrutinized her.
"You too. I'm glad my son is interacting with at least one real person."
"Did you have a pleasant journey?" Carol asked.
"Even flying first-class, a six-hour flight is tedious."
"I am sure it is. Would you like something to eat? I can have Sonja prepare something for you."
"It can cook?"
"Mom, I'd rather you refer to Sonja as she. I'm trying to make her as close to human as possible. Gender awareness is part of that process," Tony requested.
"Sorry, this is a new experience for me."
"Just talk to her like you would any woman. She learns from us that way."
"Sonja, let's go to the kitchen and see if we can rustle up a snack."
"Yes, Shirley," she replied, offering her arm.
Shirley took her arm and left the room with her. Once out of sight, Tony turned to Carol.
"You're doing beautifully. Try using contractions in your speech."
"I'll try."
"That was perfect."
"Tony, I'm impressed how closely 14 resembles your mother."
"So am I. Even the walk is accurate."
"The hairstyle is slightly different, but that can be rectified easily," Carol added.
"Let's join them in the kitchen and see how they're getting along."
Tony and Carol walked to the kitchen. His mother was leaning back on the counter watching Sonja as she prepared a tray of snacks.
"I'm impressed, Tony," his mother told him.
"Sonja, demonstrate hyper-mode."
Sonja, had been slicing cheese from a block. She instantly increased her speed, slicing to the point that Shirley stepped back in awe. The knife she was using was a blur and in seconds the tray was finished.
"Damn!" Shirley said. "That's unbelievable."
"Her computer brain can communicate more efficiently with her synthetic body than ours can. She's more accurate, faster, stronger, and can go for about twenty hours before she needs recharging."
"I know what I'm asking Santa for this year," Shirley grinned.
"Sorry, mom. We're still in development."
"Will you be selling them?"
"I don't know yet. I'm afraid they'd be weaponized. Other than not being able to fly, they're basically superheroes."
"And I thought you were making sex dolls."
"I am fully functional in all aspects of sex. Would you like a demonstration?" Sonja asked, straight faced.
"No, uh, thank you," Shirley replied.
Tony blushed and put his hands over his face. "Jesus," he mumbled.
Shirley was grinning. "So, you have sex with my son?"
"No, Shirley. That would be fourt...."
"10! Sleep mode." Tony ordered, quickly.
Sonja froze where she was. Shirley started laughing.
"Did she say four or fourteen?" his mother asked.
"Glitch in the system. That's another problem we're working on. 10! Deactivate speech and then wake," Tony said.
