You've missed some backstory, I see.  See this page again:  http://www.alicegrove.com/post/121321270784/thats-it-for-chapter-2-taking-next-week-off

All the AI's vanished in The Blink. Alice was there in The Blink and did not vanish. Ergo, Alice is not an AI.
It would be really hard (not impossible, just unlikely) for Heterochromia Guy to be an AI, because:
1. He didn't vanish during The Blink, so he must not have been on Earth at the time.
2. (this one's my interpretation) "some technologies no longer functioned" after the Blink. I'd interpret that as "really high technologies", which would certainly include AIs. If an AI was dug up on Earth after the Blink, it wouldn't function.

So if there's an AI functioning on Earth, he must be a tourist like Ardent and Gavia.

I'm pretty sure that it's a glass-eye and not heterochromia.

Alice's alarm (I'm not sure it's simply fear) could be because she realises that what she believed to be the truth about this has been violated.

sitnspin:
"What are you made of?" is actually a really good question and one to which I would love to learn the answer.

Or it could be a cyborg augmentation.

In the web-comic Crimson Dark, cyborging to a totally ludicrous level is perfectly legal so long as they don't replace/heavily augment the brain, effectively turning the subject into a synthetic in a partially-meat body. I'm just wondering if this guy is something like that.
