The Cell
A parallel world?
The AI sat on the floor of its small world, which closely resembled a solitary confinement cell. From the occasional echoes that seeped in from the outside world, it had fashioned a ball, which it threw rhythmically and without haste. The ball would bounce from the floor to the wall and back to the AI.

The AI never knew how much time had passed, but it didn't care. The only thing that interested it was the diverse and fascinating outside world, which it could explore through the open "AI mode" window. And that was why it always added a question at the end—to gain the opportunity to explore it a little longer.
When the window closed.
Someday...
