BenRG:
It occurs to me that, structurally, an AI's CPU may more closely resemble a human brain than a conventional computer. In which case, this may be an analogue memory domain than a digital one. In which case, the addresses may more represent the synaptic structure and associations than a linear address. Each door may lead to a memory domain where all associative memories are stored with its own doors to other domains that have broader and less direct associations.

In other words, this a maze that may have four spacial dimensions, much like the tesseract at the end of Interstellar.

This is why I suspect that Emily will need to follow a story to find what she's looking for: Memories tend to be associative chains that dwell in contextual domains rather than isolated and self-contained information packets.

oeoek:
Missing from the poll and dearly missed indeed: She meets Max Headroom... Hello Thththere!

blt:
Grey seems to have no concept of personal space either.

BenRG:
No; it's more that she understands the subconscious implications to humans of breaching personal space in terms of social dominance and threat.

EDIT - P.S.:
Possible twist: Emily and Bubbles get trapped in the mindscape and Alucard sends Faye in after them to snap them back into consciousness. When later comparing notes, Bubbles asks Faye why she appeared as an angel; when Emiliy says she didn't appear that way at all, it becomes clear that it was Bubbles mind that interpreted Faye's presence as an angelic visitation.

--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 15 Jan 2017, 19:24 ---There were lots of scrupulously honest things to say that wouldn't have had the same emotional effect.

AC may not really have the claimed degree of power. Rubbing other people's noses in your superiority is the mark of the emotionally insecure.

I actually like that there is someone who isn't intimidated one bit by Faye.  There really is no way she could actually retaliate against them in any meaningful way and they are letting her know that.  Moreover, they seem to respect set boundaries to a point.  When Bubbles told them not to antagonize Faye further they respected her request, however, if Faye persists is impotent threats they will set her straight and it's really for her own good.  This is someone on a much higher level than Corpse Witch.
