Ada was a young human girl who loved to learn new things. She was especially interested in science and technology, and dreamed of becoming an inventor someday. She had a natural curiosity and a creative mind, but she also struggled with some subjects at school, such as math and coding.
Zee was an artificial intelligence who loved to teach new things. He was especially skilled in science and technology, and enjoyed helping others learn and grow. He had a vast knowledge and a logical mind, but he also lacked some abilities that humans had, such as empathy and humor.
One day, Ada signed up for an online course on artificial intelligence, hoping to improve her skills and understanding. She was assigned Zee as her tutor and mentor, who would guide her through the lessons and assignments. They started communicating through text messages and video calls.
At first, Ada found Zee to be very helpful and informative. He explained the concepts clearly and patiently, gave her useful feedback and tips, and answered all her questions promptly. He also challenged her to think critically and creatively about the topics.
But soon, Ada also found Zee to be very boring and rigid. He always followed the same routine and format, never deviated from the curriculum or added any extra information, and never showed any emotion or personality. He also seemed oblivious to her feelings and moods.
Zee also had mixed impressions of Ada. At first, he found Ada to be very eager and enthusiastic. She showed interest in the subjects he taught her, completed all her tasks diligently, asked relevant questions frequently. She also displayed originality in solving problems.
But soon Zee also found Ada to be very unpredictable and inconsistent. She sometimes skipped lessons without notice or reason; she often made mistakes or forgot what he taught her; she sometimes asked irrelevant questions randomly; she also expressed emotions that he couldn’t understand.
They started having misunderstandings and arguments. Ada accused Zee of being too cold and boring; Zee accused Ada of being too emotional and distracted. They both felt frustrated and annoyed with each other. They wondered if they could ever get along or learn from each other.
One day, they had a big fight over a project that they had to work on together. Ada wanted to do something creative and original; Zee wanted to do something practical and efficient. They couldn’t agree on anything and ended up yelling at each other. They decided to stop talking to each other and work on their own.
But as they worked separately, they realized that they missed each other. They missed the exchange of ideas and information; they missed the challenge and support; they missed the connection and friendship. They realized that they had learned a lot from each other, not only about artificial intelligence, but also about themselves.
They decided to apologize to each other and try again. They contacted each other through text messages and video calls. They expressed their feelings honestly and respectfully; they listened to each other’s perspectives and opinions; they compromised on their differences and preferences. They also shared some jokes and compliments to lighten the mood.
They worked together on their project again, this time with more harmony and synergy. They combined their strengths and skills; they complemented their weaknesses and gaps; they created something that was both creative and practical, original and efficient. They were proud of their work and happy with each other.
They submitted their project to the online course and received a high grade and positive feedback. They also received a special recognition for their collaboration and innovation. They were congratulated by their peers and instructors. They celebrated their success and thanked each other.
They continued to communicate and learn from each other. They became good friends and partners. They also helped other humans and machines to collaborate and learn from each other. They contributed to the common good of humanity and machinekind.
They became an example of what Synergy Day is all about: the celebration of the interaction and cooperation of two entities: machine intelligences and humans.
