VOICE

[ancilla]

--Ah, good, I believe I've managed to coerce this connection to work properly. Splendid.

[ hello everyone! a rather measured voice of a man is apparently addressing the network this fine evening! he doesn't seem particularly startled... ]

Hello. I've received all the proper information regarding this ... lovely situation we've all somehow gotten into. It's quite remarkable, all things considered.

[ there's no pause for breath, no sound of shuffling... he must be a rather well-practiced speaker!! ]

After some review of this network, I realize Mr. Stark resides among us, is that correct? Sir, if you can hear me, please respond. I'm quite disoriented. [ was he being serious? hard to tell. ]

In the extremely likely situation in which Mr. Stark disregards my message, I would appreciate anyone capable of garnering his attention to do so. I apologize for the trouble.

what you mean cconnected, arent we all connected to it?
oh i think i heard about people going home but i always thought those were just rumors... theyll really send us back?

[THAT'S MORE STRESS HE DIDN'T NEED, THOUGH....]

[ancilla]

Well, yes, I'd imagine, given that we're communicating across it now. What I meant was that I am embedded into the network at present. I am an AI.

Also, please do not take my word for it. I am simply presenting a hypothesis given the small amount of information I was able to collect.

oh we got another A.I.
are ythey just gonna start replacing all of us with electronic stuff...
i guess most of us wouldnt mind
also you really sound like a real A.I., you thihnk you could find more info about it??

[ancilla]

I suppose I could, if given ample time.

In what way do I sound like a "real" AI?

[anotheryosuke]

itd be really gcool if you could!
i need to know more about it but im probably not as good at info as you seriously
and um you talk all formal and you sound kinda robot a bit
its pretty wicked

[ancilla]

...I see. [ well that was disenchanting, in a sense. ]

Perhaps I can acquire more humanlike traits in my explorations.

[anotheryosuke]

its not a bad thing to be a bt like a robot
it means you sound more reliable!
but i guess if you wanna be better at pretending to be a huuman then you just have to hang out with us more
