I was thinking about Pinocchio in a similar vein. He is animate, and can even feel longing to be a 'real' boy, but there is something about him that isn't genuine.Gustav Meyrink's The Golem, the Pygmalion bit of Ovid, or Frankenstein, for a hint that some of the stock depictions of artificial intelligence might not have all that much to do with technology at all.
