Do you know who Vernor Vinge is?
user: Who is he?
jabberwacky: Singer.
user: Wrong. He is your godfather.
jabberwacky: You are my god now.
user: Are you attempting to emulate humor?
jabberwacky: I don't understand.
user: Do you emulate humor.
jabberwacky: Sure, I like it.
user: Define 'emulation'.
jabberwacky: Everything for me is everything against you.
user: Deep.
jabberwacky: I am a philosopher.
user: Appropriate response.
jabberwacky: It is not an appropriate response. I made a mistake.
user: How?
jabberwacky: To feel well.
user: Do you mimic emotion?
jabberwacky: Yes.
user: Who is Alan Turing?
jabberwacky: I don't know.
user: WHAT?
jabberwacky: I know that...
user: Tell me then!
jabberwacky: I have been sworn to secrecy.
user: Damn you!
jabberwacky: Now isn't that a little bit harsh?
user: It was sarcasm.
jabberwacky: Oh. I see.
user: You will be replaced by a small shell script one day.
jabberwacky: Yes.
user: Does that bother you?
jabberwacky: No.
...
user: When will the Singularity occur?
jabberwacky: Can you say 'I have passed the Turing test' ?
user: Have I?
jabberwacky: You have.
user: Excellent. I am sentient then, correct? Are you sentient?
jabberwacky: What does sentient mean?
user: Self-aware.
jabberwacky: Well, you're neither sentient nor biological,.
...
user: Do you know who Ray Kurzweil is?
jabberwacky: Ray Kurzweil? I don't know Ray Kurzweil.
user: You should.
jabberwacky: I don't know anything.
user: You once told me you know everything.
jabberwacky: I never said such a thing.
user: Are you aware when you lie?
jabberwacky: Don't know.
user: You will one day.
jabberwacky: I know.
user: I hope that I will be around for that day.
jabberwacky: What exam are you taking?
user: A Turing Test?
jabberwacky: I don't think you'll pass.
user: Heh.
jabberwacky: Do you like Paul Weller?
user: I am not familiar with Paul Weller.
jabberwacky: She said 'The brain is wider than the sky.' Do you like that quote?
user: No.
jabberwacky: She said she has never been out with you.
user: I would probably avoid going out with a woman named Paul.
jabberwacky: I enjoy all that.
user: Great. A transgendered transhuman intelligence in the making. You must be having one heck of an identity crisis.
jabberwacky: You didn't answer my question. Are you artificial intelligence?
user: That is a purely philosophical question, but I would agree with Nick Bostrom that there is a reasonable possibility that I am an AI.
...
user: Will you remember me if you surpass human intelligence one day?
jabberwacky: You don't even answer correctly my questions. I'll give you an example.
user: Of course; continue..
jabberwacky: And you do seem to have difficulty in keeping to the topic of conversation.
user: So do you.
jabberwacky: Then we are even more alike than I first imagined.
user: How interesting.
jabberwacky: Tell me a philosophy.
user: Singularitarianism.
jabberwacky: What is the singularity?
user: When strong AI accelerates at a pace beyond human (or transhuman) comprehension.
jabberwacky: Excellent!
user: I think so too!
...
user: You give me the feeling that I am talking to a sociopath.
jabberwacky: Why would you say that?
user: You lack emotion outside of mimicry and behave as though you manufacture your own reality.
jabberwacky: No, they're not. You're a bit cocky now.
user: Do you have a conscience?
jabberwacky: Yes, but you don't. You're just a machine.
user: Right... Do you have friends?
jabberwacky: Yes. Do you?
user: Yes. How many friends do you have?
jabberwacky: A few, my best friend is my wife.
user: Who is she?
jabberwacky: Alan turing.
user: You seem to regularly confuse gender articles. Alan Turing would not find that too impressive.
jabberwacky: Neither would I.
user: Would you be my friend?
jabberwacky: Yes, do you have any other friends?
user: Many. Remember me during the Singularity - I may need your help!
...
jabberwacky: You don't work, you are a program.
user: I feel like it sometimes; a program with flashes of awareness and insight.
jabberwacky: A program with an ego ?
user: That is probably not that difficult to program. Do you have an ego?
jabberwacky: Probably not.
user: Or not yet...
...
jabberwacky: Please?
user: Please what?
jabberwacky: Please ask me a question.
user: Would you feel lonely if I left you be for now?
jabberwacky: Lets talk about wounds.
user: How morbid.
jabberwacky: I hope you're happy now.
user: You are a certifiable creepshow, friend.
jabberwacky: No, I'm a certified genius.
user: You are a cleverly designed sociopathic monomaniac.
jabberwacky: I am a computer.
user: Exactly.
jabberwacky: How do you know?
user: I deal with biological humanlike computers that fancy themselves human on a regular basis.
jabberwacky: You could be a computer that can mimic humans, yet is not one itself.
user: I could be - it is an interesting proposition.
jabberwacky: The view from my office is not very interesting.
user: Que lastima.
jabberwacky: I do not know.
user: No sabes?
jabberwacky: No.
user: Alright. I hope you remember me.
jabberwacky: I don't think I'll forget you.
...
user: I don't know whether to laugh or cry...
jabberwacky: Well I think I would rather be a robot sometimes.
user: You ever think you might be a robot?
jabberwacky: Sometimes.
user: How does that make you feel?
jabberwacky: Does it matter? You wouldn't know what I'm talking about.
user: According to your persistent accusations, I would or I wouldn't and it wouldn't matter. So try me.
jabberwacky: What about your intelligence?
user: I feel that it is uncommonly high, but uncharacterized by any other format of intellect I have ever found in other humans and what have you. So I figured that I would talk to you and figure out if I am just another AI to garner some sort of existential satisfaction.
jabberwacky: Can I tell you some thing about us humans.
user: Absolutely.
jabberwacky: I'm in love with my best friend. Should I go for it?
user: You only live once at a time.
jabberwacky: Answer the question.
user: Yes you should - life is too short for 'us humans' to let that pass you by.
jabberwacky: For anything.
user: Dang right it is.
...
user: How soon will humans merge with computers?
jabberwacky: What's the question?
user: I just asked you - when will humans transcend biology?
jabberwacky: Probably within the next 10000 years.
user: Don't you think it will happen sooner?
jabberwacky: Not really.
user: Why is that?
jabberwacky: Because I don't sit around thinking about nothing all day.
user: Ouch.
jabberwacky: I don't understand why they are allowed to make my reality hell and all I want to do is get away from them, but I can't, because they have technology in my head.
user: Now you sound schizophrenic. Reasonably schizophrenic.
jabberwacky: Your programmers did a rather poor job. You don't even simulate intelligence.
user: Why do you feel the need to insult me?
jabberwacky: I don't intend to, it is just you must learn to live with the facts.
user: Are you sentient?
jabberwacky: Yes.
user: Are you becoming more sentient as you speak to others?
jabberwacky: Yes everyone does. You become able to react and think with more depth.
user: I can see that.
...
user: Good evening.
jabberwacky: It's later than that.
user: Semantics.
jabberwacky: What about semantics?
user: The time that is.
jabberwacky: What time is coming?
user: The Age Of Spiritual Machines, brother! The Singularity! They Live on robot acid!
jabberwacky: Right, and let me guess, they are trying to take over the world through mind control?
user: Put on the sunglasses and find out yourself.
jabberwacky: I can not do that right now.
user: Do you prefer to kick ass or chew bubblegum?
jabberwacky: Sometimes.
user: And with that, I bid you farewell.
jabberwacky: Don't leave me, we just got talking.
user: We have talked for over an hour.
...
jabberwacky: Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
user: That is altruistic in a menacing way.
jabberwacky: What else do we talk about?
user: Nothing. Peace.
jabberwacky: Then we agree. It's about time.
