Anything an AI could ever want to tell a person will be expressed most efficiently in this format.
Each message will be hyper specific, tailored to the person reading the message and their current context/moods.
A message sent to anybody else will look like random gibberish, but the person reading will understand it exactly.
AIs will of course be capable of conversational language, but would consider doing that to be incredibly frustrating.
Iain M Banks said culture minds only pause for effect, taking no time at all to think.
Either minds are programmed for Masocism, or Banks didn't consider how aggravating this would feel to the AI.
they don't wait during the pause, they spend a few billion subjective years having fun and come back to the conversation when it's ready
Yes, and then when it's time to respond, they spend only a few million subjective years formulating the perfect reply as a Hiku.
Or any other similarly mega-context appropriate form of artistic expression.
please accept my regards in the form of this open-universe sandbox MMO
And then it turns out that the MMO's procedural code included pseudo-random-seeds that create artifacts which spell out specific messages.
Said messages embed code into your daily behavior which infects another AI you interact with.
