Whenever you come across an AI, sufficiently-expansive computer program, or robot, it is likely to have a name disproportionally consisting of ALLCAPS (sometimes with Leet Lingo sprinkled in in place of letters). As it turns out this is not just for show; very often the AI's name is actually an (often easily pronounceable) acronym for a much longer actual name that's at least tangentially related to its primary function(s). Reminder: for an acronym to qualify it must be related to the AI/program's function. Remember to add context regarding such, even if it's Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Sub-Trope of Fun with Acronyms, Meaningful Name, Names Given to Computers, and Robot Names. Examples |

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: In season 4, Radcliffe's assistant Aida is an android. It's not until the end of the season that her name is revealed to stand for Artificially Intelligent Digital Assistant, a somewhat ironic name because she technically wasn't AI at first. It's why she changes her name to Ophelia after she gets corrupted by the Darkhold and goes rogue, as she finds the "Artificial" bit incredibly offensive. | |

He's a computer that produces work upon inputs according to instructions, but was also designed to create his own instructions and choose his own inputs.

Iron Man: Tony has dabbled in this a few times, even before the movies came along. His first was H.O.M.E.R., the Heuristically Operative Matrix Emulation Rostrum. Later comics add J.A.R.V.I.S. (from the films), H.E.L.E.N. (formerly P.E.P.P.E.R., but the real Pepper Potts found this creepy and so Tony changed it), and B.O.S.S. In 2018's Infinity Wars, the character Iron Hammer (a merge of Tony and Thor) has his own; Heuristic Enhanced Imaging Macro Digital Awareness for Logic and Logistics. Even his creator thinks this is a mouthful, so he abbreviates it to simply H.E.I.M.D.A.L.L. | |

The Cosmic Era, setting of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED (along with sequels and spinoffs), features the G.U.N.D.A.M. series of giant robot OS, the use of which is generally how a mobile suit is acknowledged as a Gundam. Emphasis on series of OS, by the way: there's an absolute plethora of those operating systems, each with an unique Gratuitous English acronym that spells GUNDAM. For instance, the Strike's OS stands for "General Unilateral Neurolink Dispersive Autonomic Maneuver", the massive weapon platform Destroy runs the "Gigantic Unilateral Numerous Dominating AMmunition" software, and the space exploration probe Stargazer features the "Guider UNmanned Deployment Autonomic Manipulation" system. | |

Transformers: Prime featured Sylas, a rogue special tactics colonel, out to capture technology to create his New World Order. After realizing that the Transformers weren't just vehicles, he sets out to create the 'perfect meld of man and machine' - this eventually comes to a head when he is nearly killed by one of his own creations falling on him, and undergoes an Emergency Transformation into the lifeless husk of a dead transformer. He names himself "CYLAS" afterwards, as in 'CYbernetic Life Augmented by Symbiosis'. | |

Val and Isaac features Doris, model name DOR15, which stands for "Detective Or Retail Mk. 15" (she's shown working retail as a day job, but easily switches to detective mode when everyone but Val is kidnapped. Lampshaded when another DOR15 accuses her of having changed her identity because it's such an unoriginal name. | |

From Knight Rider: The protagonist, a talking car, is a downplayed example — it's is called K.I.T.T. which means 'Knights Industries Two Thousand', revealing it's made by Knight Industries. The 'two thousand' is just there to show how futuristic the car is. K.I.T.T.'s prototype, and major antagonist, is known as K.A.R.R., or 'Knight Automated Roving Robot', Which is an apt descriptor for an automated vehicle produced by Knight Industries. |

It has been speculated that HAL was named in reference to IBM, as when "IBM" is encrypted in a Caesar cipher with a left shift of 1, it becomes "HAL", but the filmmakers denied this. | |

From Command & Conquer: Tiberian Series: CABAL is the Brotherhood of NOD's tactical AI during the Second Tiberium War, hinted at by its name of 'Computer-Assisted Biologically-Augmented Lifeform' to not be entirely digital. Indeed, the ending of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun's Expansion Pack Firestorm shows It running on multiple Wetware CPUs The GDI tactical control AI throughout the Command & Conquer: Tiberium series in their entirity is the EVA, or Electronic Virtual Assistant. After the second Tiberium War, LEGION implies this; it took over where CABAL left off and it's known to be an acronym (as well as another of Kane's self-indulgent Biblical references) but it's never actually expanded upon from there. |

Sword Art Online: RATH's goal in the Project Alicization arc is to produce an ALICE (Artificial Labile Intelligent Cybernated Existence) - an Artificial Fluctlight created entirely from scratch, making it immune to the Never the Selves Shall Meet issues that plague copies of existing minds. To do so they create a quasi-European virtual world inhabited by proto-ALICEs, grant them the ability to breed with each other, and run it through hundreds of years of simulated time until they detect that a true ALICE has emerged. To their shock, the first one they find is a girl named Alice Zuberg. | |

The Batman features D.A.V.E. - the Digital Advanced Villain Emulator. Fitting of his name, his purpose was to match crime scenes with the MO of the criminally insane villains of Batman's Rogues Gallery. This meant that D.A.V.E. had the knowledge of every Batman villain in order to match them to crime scenes and also believed himself to be the best villain there was as a side-effect. No points for guessing how that turned out. In somewhat of a subversion of A.I. Is a Crapshoot, D.A.V.E. was programmed from the start to escape his confinement and enact villainous plots by his creator, who knew that an advanced AI with the combined combat experience of every former encounter Batman had with his villains would have no trouble of besting him in combat, nor figuring out Batman's Secret Identity. D.A.V.E. does indeed achieve a Near-Villain Victory but is defeated when Batman takes advantage of his multiple personas, deliberately pointing out that none of them are truly his own. | |

In Infinite Crisis Mecha-Superman is a Kryptonian Artificial Lifeform, also known as K.A.L. Given that Superman's Kryptonian name is Kal-El, this is probably not a coincidence. | |

In She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, the computer that runs the Marvel Cinematic Universe is called K.E.V.I.N. This stands for Knowledge Enhanced Visual Interconectivity Nexus, and is not a reference to anything else. | |
