Barometers of Appropriateness

"Speaking of artificial intelligence, it seems as if the creators of 'Mrs. Davis' have ironically chosen to utilize A.I. in the show's production. During a panel at the film festival South by Southwest, Lindelof mentioned how they used artificial intelligence and said, 'We thought it would be fun to build an A.I. that would title our episodes, and that we just basically said that whatever it comes up with, we have to stick to as long as it is appropriate for whatever barometers of appropriateness exist.'

Damon Lindelof continued and explained that in the process of creating the A.I. that would title episodes for the upcoming 'Mrs. Davis,' the artificial intelligence struggled to understand what a title actually was, despite the information that was filtered through the program. Lindelof then said that the entire production crew learned a great deal about algorithms and how A.I. works while attempting to get it to generate episode titles. In the end, Lindelof and the rest of the crew were quite happy with the results, noting that Episode 7 is titled 'Great Gatsby: 2001: A Space Odyssey.' "
