Not like it should be terribly difficult for an AI to create itself a humanlike virtual avatar for interactions with meatbags, anyway. Such meatbags have been doing that to far more primitive programs for a while after all, and it's not like we've ever seen the Lotus *in the flesh*...

Ordis looks like it does probably because fancy graphics tend not be a high priority for no-frills military systems (AFAIK things like stealth bombers and AEGIS cruisers tend to run on computers roughly equivalent to ancient 286 PCs because their systems mostly just crunch numbers and ignore fancy visuals), nevermind now ones in "battle taxis" that likely had pretty nasty attrition rates back in the War. And Suda sounds like it doesn't care and is probably fascinated with abstract fractal shapes and suchlike anyway. Got only knows what *that* toaster started out as in the first place, might've been an accounting or traffic-control system or something similarly detached from direct interface with organics for all we know.
