in ways that humans simply cant.

And if you want more proof

just look into my eyes.

[applause]

[piano playing]

[woman on PA] The symposium on

advancement in nanosurgery begins in 15

minutes.

[piano playing continues]

[Zoe] This is all interactive.

Translates our voices into images.

It can even hear you whisper.

[whispering] Whisper.

[Cole, whispering] Whisper. Oh, yeah.

Say something.

Hello. Hi.

Louder.

Hello!

Oh, wow, look.

Hello!

Im here in an empty room!

Shouting! I feel a little silly!

[Zoe singing in operatic style]

La, la, la, la, la

- [Zoe] La-la-la, la-la-la

- La-la

[Zoe] Whoo!

[both whooping]

[Cole] Fa-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

Figaro

Figaro

Figaro, Figaro, Figaro

[rolling Rs] Ro, ro, ro

F***!

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you

I do

- [Cole] Zoe.

- Yeah?

Would you be upset

if we waited a little bit?

- Do you want me to go?

- No.

I want you to stay.

[Cole sighs]

Exercise.

[laughing]

[all laughing]

- [Cole mutters]

- [robot] Incoming.

[laughing]

- Do you like him?

- Yeah.

[robot] Why dont you pull my finger?

[giggling]

- [imitating passing gas]

- [laughing]

So you have many rocks?

- Yeah.

- [laughs]

- Do you think Im nice?

- Yeah.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well, you have to stay here with him.

Im going home.

- [Emma] Do you guys wanna stay for dinner?

- No, weve, um...

We should get back.

- Caleb really likes her.

- Yeah.

I didnt mention to him about her,

like what who she is.

Well, theres a difference between

what we see and what we know.

So should I tell him or not tell him?

What does that mean?

Tell him.

Tell him.

Im worried hes gonna freak out though.

- He likes her, you know.

- Yeah.

- I dont think so.

- Okay.

- Ill tell him.

- See you Thursday.

Yeah, thanks.

This was really nice, thank you.

- And bring her.

- Okay, Ill bring her on Thursday.

Yeah.

[dance pop playing]

- [chattering]

- [dance pop continues playing]

[man singing, faint]

[woman] Yeah, I do like that.

[moaning]

Is Jewels available?

I can pay. I just want to talk to her.

I suspected you were synthetic.

You are, arent you?

Flawless work.

You must cost a fortune.

You wanna ask her

what its like to be with all these men?

You know, wed do very well

if you worked here with me.

My clients are respectable. Youd be safe.

And if youre programmed to connect,

you might even find it rewarding.

Your designers done you

a grave injustice.

Hes given you aspirations

youll never achieve.

Eventually youll see

theres no humanity inside something

that can be turned off.

[dance music playing]

Why dont you tell me

about why you came here?

Ive been...

I guess Im here because

I want to know what its like

for you in your sessions.

The person Im with, he...

We havent

He doesnt seem to want to...

Youd be surprised how many men come

to me and dont want anything physical.

Some just talk.

Some just want forgiveness.

What Ive learned about men is that

sometimes they dont really desire you.

They desire the way you make them feel.

But they they know youre not real.

The Designer only cares

that were real enough to make money.

D-Do you feel a connection to any of them?

I dont know.

Do you feel?

Yes.

Youre whats coming.

My skin is wearing out.

Theres a limit to how many times

she can regrade us.

We end up on the street or

or repurposed if men dont want to see me.

I can help you.

You... You go here.

You ask for me or Ash.

I dont, um...

Were not really allowed to...

- Take it.

- [The Designer] Jewels!

Client.

- I have to go.

- Thank you. Thank you.

[chattering]

[woman] I greet you next to me

[chattering]

[woman] Send me your flowers

Flowers that bloom

Blooming there for you

I once told Ash that what he felt for me

was only zeros and ones.

Youre not Ash.

Do you think you could

prove to me that youre real?

If you had to?

Zoe.

- We dont...

- Sometimes, the way you look at me

or dont look at me

I feel like thats what I have to do.

So I wonder.

Could you do it?

When I first started working in AI,

the skeptics said that only humans

could be creative

or dream.

Or feel.

I know you feel.

- [Cole] Want some?

- Mm-hmm.

Wine?

Much better.

- Because of the milk, more, um, moisture.

- Mm-hmm.

[laughing]

[Cole] Would you change anything?

- Its not symmetrical.

- I know, but people arent symmetrical.

Like this sides more handsome

than this side or something.

I wouldnt change anything.

[Emma chattering]

His teacher said he tries.

- [Cole] Did you hear the joke about...

- [Zoe] The vacuum cleaner?

Vacuum cleaner. [chattering, faint]

[all laughing]

I asked for that. I really asked for that.

Youll never have better chips than these.

It doesnt matter what you say

so long as you say it honestly

and what you say is honest.

No, Zoe, Zoe, Zoe, its so nice.

[employees, clients chattering]

Hello.

[man] I love you more.

- I couldnt picture my life without you.

- [woman] Aw.

[woman laughing]

[woman] I love you too.

I didnt know if you had any plans

this weekend.

[man] Your field lies

Before the rain

The feeling

Is gone away

I know

Time

May cause you pain

The feeling

Is gone away

- [Zoe] A spring.

- [laughs]

Oh, I think so, yeah. You wanna go in?

- Im not sure.

- Its not too cold.

- Its too cold.

- Its not too cold.

- Youre crazy.

- Were gonna do it. Were going in.

- No!

- Yes!

- Were gonna do this!

- [laughing]

- [Cole] Oh! [whooping]

- Is it cold? Is it cold?

No, its okay.

- Okay!

- You can do it.

Are no for weighed

Whoo!

[screams] Its freezing cold!

Oh, my God! [gasping]

- [squealing, screams]

- [laughs]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you for everything.

I wanted you to have this.

This is real?

Not part of a test?

Theres no test.

I could tell, when I told you how I felt,

that you were afraid.

You still are.

But less now.

- You can see that?

- Mm-hmm.

[Zoe panting, moaning]

I have memories,

but Im not sure I know what to do.

Dont worry.

Just be.

Dont think.

[Zoe moans]

Good morning.

[man] We scored a 66.

That was all we needed to see.

Well, well, well.

Looks like someone spent the weekend

testing the limits of her functionality.

Well, someone call the techs.

I think we discovered you can blush.

You know this hurts me, dont you?

Seeing you with someone else.

You know, theres different kinds

of relationships, Ash.

Different kinds of love.

Friends can love each other.

Yeah.

What was it like?

To feel so human?

What are you thinking?

Its a very romantic situation.

[chuckling]

I was thinking we should go to Iceland.

And we should get a car

with a tent on the roof,

and we should drive

around the whole island of Iceland

and explore and look at the snow

and the ice floes

and look at sh*t like that.

New York City.

Where the city never sleeps. [laughs]

- Why?

- Because we dont need to sleep there.

But why?

Im happy here.

Me too.

[arguing, faint]

[woman] Can you help me?
