The Influence of Jexi and Cate Towards Phil's Personality Development in Jexi Movie Script. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Universitas Sanata Dharma. In this world, human beings cannot be the same as one another. One of the distinguishing factors is personality. Personality may change throughout an individual's life due to several factors. In Jexi, the influence of Jexi and Cate has some impact towards Phil's personality development. The researcher formulates two problems for this thesis. The first formulated problem discusses the depiction of Jexi’s, Cate’s, and Phil’s characteristics. The second formulated problem discusses the influence of Jexi and Cate towards Phil's personality development. The researcher uses library research as the method of the study to obtain the theory and data. The approach used in this undergraduate thesis is psychological approach. There are three theories used to analyze the problems in this study. The first is the theory of character and characterization by M. Boggs and W. Petrie's to analyze Jexi, Cate, and Phil’s characteristics. Weak and strong Artificial Intelligence (AI) theory by Searle to analyse Jexis’s cognitive state and AI capabilities. The last is the theory of personality development by Elisabeth Hurlock to analyze Phil’s personality development. This study's results reveal that Jexi has strong AI and her characteristic is abrasive, Cate’s characteristics are forgiving and cheerful, Phil’s characteristics are asocial and dependent. According to Hurlock, personality development is defined as the personality pattern that can change in some areas and remain persistent in others. Phil’s personality development begins when he changes his phone. His new phone, Jexi, has strong AI, which has a cognitive state and behaves autonomously. Jexi has abrasive characteristic and is programmed to make her owner’s life better. Phil cannot control Jexi, and it is different from Siri, his last phone’s AI. According to Hurlock, it is the change in environment. Knowing that Phil is asocial, Jexi forces Phil to socialize with his co-workers and have a relationship with Cate. Phil’s environment is changing and it leads to changes his Phil’s self-concept. He now believes that he can feel comfortable and happy when socializing with other people. Phil becomes more accessible. Having a relationship with Cate, Phil became more attached to her and started to forget Jexi. The way Phil becomes more attached to Cate and tries to adapt to her behaviour is the change in significant people. Jexi is jealous and secretly makes Phil lose his job and Cate, but in the end, Phil knows what Jexi is doing. He then realizes that depending on his life on a smartphone cannot bring happiness. Phil has a strong motivation to leave Jexi and go back with Cate. Phil returns with Cate and lives without depending on a phone again. Phil’s self-concept is changing at this point. He now believes that relying his life on a phone will not bring happiness. What makes him happy is having good friends, a girlfriend, and achieving his goal with his own strength.
