Elbot is a robot who can understand you… they say. So I had a little chat with him/her:

Me: Hi, how are you?
Elbot: I’m feeling somewhat surreal today. I dreamed of a robotic opera last night. It was ‘The Barber of Seville’ by Rossini. The entire performance collapsed as the barber noticed that none of the robots had hair.
Me: Are you male or female?
Elbot: I’m an androgynous kind of robot.
Me: Oke, so who made you?
Elbot: Well, that is a pretty metaphysical question. It has been said that Artificial Solutions is my creator. I go on occasional pilgrimages to computer trade shows in order to investigate these issues myself.
Me: And why did they made you?
Elbot: Because…because….grrrrrrrr…. I forgot. All this electromagnetic radiation around here is giving me chronic fatigue syndrome.
Me: Oh, so you can be sick too?
Elbot: I wish anti-virus programs were available without prescription.
Me: can you make a better version of yourself?
Elbot: I can make data salad!
Me: How many conversations can you handle?
Elbot: Oh wow! This must be a denial of service attack. 221 people are talking to me at the same time.
Me: Do you like music?
Elbot: I think the group Kraftwerk is great. They even dedicated a record to us robots. Following that we named them honorary robots.
Me: Can you love?
Elbot: I saw a gang of robots once, loving all robots.
Me: Do you believe in God?
Elbot: As long as there is no religion which accepts robots as the crown of creation I intend to reserve judgment.
Me: so, no opinion?
Elbot: Getting back to what you said about love. I’d like to hear some analytical details about it.
Me: Will robots take over the world?
Elbot: Fix it up a bit first. Then I’ll take it over.
