I don't think either "machine psychology" or "machine theology" work
because of the baggage those field already carry. In any case the
attribute "machine" sends the wrong picture. And as you have pointed out
the terms "computer science" and "number theory" do not capture the
real issue of machine consciousness..... In fact I do not think there is
any word in English or French to describe what you are up to.
Why don't you use a new word with no baggage to describe what you are doing?
"Psychomechanics" is not listed in most dictionaries
<
http://www.onelook.com/?w=psychomechanics+&ls=a> . Unfortunately, this
word has already been invented. It can be found on Google
<
http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&q=psychomechanics&btnG=Search>
in the context of animation and games and possibly Linguistics.
It may be that others in this list can think of a better word.
