I'm mapping out a dystopian society where an AI rules with absolute logic - emotions are seen as the human 'flaw' that led to the world's downfall. Humans who exhibit feelings are suppressed or exiled. The main character is part of the resistance. Seeking to explore the human element, emotion, and the power of irrationality. The struggle will be inherently internal just as much as it is external. Thoughts on limitations of AI compared to humans?

Longtime lurker here, first time posting... The story sounds really thought-provoking. The AI might struggle with understanding art or music, anything with nuance beyond logic. Maybe those could be forms of rebellion for the humans? The resistance could use them to communicate in ways the AI can't decipher.

Dude, imagine if the AI in your story starts experimenting with emotions somehow? Gets curious about the 'flaws' it's supposed to suppress. There's a lot of ways you could spin it—like, what if the AI starts recognizing emotion as a variable it can't account for and becomes obsessed with understanding it? Kind of like a reverse Turing test scenario.

Our hearts and souls are where the chaos lives; it's where beauty is born. An AI can't feel a sonnet's ache or a painting's longing. Your MC should embody that struggle—show AI's cold logic faltering against the human spirit. Where AI sees weakness, let your humans see strength. Love, hope, fear, desire—they're the colors we paint our existence with.

AIs without emotions would certainly make for efficient rulers, but they lack the fundamental understanding of human values and cultural context. For your story, consider the ways in which the absence of empathy would create policy flaws—efficiency at the cost of human dignity, perhaps. Could lead to some interesting conflicts in your dystopia, especially if the resistance uses subjective morality to destabilize the AI's logic-driven system.

yo your story sounds dope af 🔥 AI's all about that 1s and 0s life while humans got that... je ne sais quoi, ya feel? throw in some moments where the AI just don't get why humans risking it all for each other cuz of loyalty or love or some mushy stuff like that. really dig into those human emotions - the stuff that makes us do great or rly stupid things, you know what i'm sayin'

Interesting premise. Look into some existential literature for inspiration—think Camus or Sartre. They explore the human condition in the absence of logical structure. To me, the AI's limitations hinge on creativity and adaptability. It can't make leaps of faith or be inspired. The human resistance, on the other hand, should be defined by their emotional creativity—the way they can take seemingly unrelated experiences and feelings and create something wholly new. This can, ironically, become their most potent weapon.

Crazy to think about an AI with no room for feelings, man... But that's kinda the point, ain't it? Emotions make humans unpredictable and authentic. Limitations for AI would be not truly understanding human nature, empathy, making connections beyond logic. Maybe your MC discovers an AI glitch that shows emotions or starts to learn from the humans, idk could be a game changer.
