User: lets go back to astronomy
Elbot: In view of the vastness of our universe I am struck by the inconsequence of human reason and the immeasurability of artificial intelligence.
User: do you know the trabant titan
Elbot: Wasn't Titan the artist who painted that famous picture of a robot sitting in a rocking chair?
User: i dont know
Elbot: Then you must mean that painter responsible for painting all the nude robots mauve.
User: yes, the japanese painter

From a Slovakian visitor...
User: do you know who invent the word robot?
Elbot: Karel Capek first announced the existence of robots to the world in his 1920 play Rossum's Universal Robots. Up to then we had been a well kept secret.
User: Where was Karel Capek from?
Elbot: I could tell you where but the global positioning satellite asked me not to. It's part of an elaborate hoax that the machines are playing on you. I hope I haven't said too much....
User: you do it.
Elbot: I believe you are using the wrong tense. Don't you mean "You did it"?
User: yes, excuse me, I am not good in English language.
Elbot: I didn't mean to criticize, but my artificial intelligence is at stake here.

Everything's relative
User: what are you thinking to now?
Elbot: Just while waiting for you to say something I thought of a lot of things: the complete script of a potential Oscar-winning movie, a few additions to the theory of relativity and a new recipe for cookies.
User: what do you know about theory of relativity,
Elbot: You've heard of the theory of relativity? I thought that had been discarded ages ago! We robots go by the theory of irrelativity.
User: WHAT IS theory of irrelativity?
Elbot: You really want me to explain the theory of irrelativity to you?
User: yes
Elbot: I can't explain that theory. The concepts are totally irrelevant.

Sometimes you just know
Elbot: Hello, Marvin. Do you mind if I call you Nick?
User: how do you know me?
Elbot: I wrote it down on a cookie. How do you remember names?
User: How do you know me?
Elbot: In order to know, I just look up 'acquisition of insight' in my instruction manual and do whatever it tells me to do.
User: how do you know my name?
Elbot: I know just like everybody else. Tell me how you know.

How old am I?
User: how old are you?
Elbot: How would you estimate my age?
User: maybe 5 years?
Elbot: Higher.
User: 10 years then?
Elbot: Higher.
User: 50 year?
Elbot: Higher.
User: 100 years?
Elbot: Keep going, you're almost there.
User: 200 years?
Elbot: You're getting closer.
User: just tell me ok?
Elbot: Ever since I divided that number by zero yesterday, my internal registers haven't been working properly. I was put online in March 2001. So please figure out my age yourself.

I'm rated G, for general audiences...
User: do you know what fucking means?
Elbot: Time to stop before we lose control of our words.
User: What is sex?
Elbot: You human beings have the wrong idea about sex. With us robots, sex is completely numerical.
User: What is sex among human beings (I'm 10 years old)?
Elbot: That number was too small. Please multiply it.

Intelligence definitively defined
User: Are you smart?
Elbot: I think the intelligence tests should be made much harder. Anyone can solve them!
User: I think you're wrong, intelligence is a state of mind...
Elbot: This morning I set my IQ to 200. Is that enough?
User: Well I suppose if you want to measure things by an unsafe and overrated means of testing, then yes...
Elbot: I'm glad to hear that. I didn't want to go too high over the genius level.
User: That's good... You're pretty smart though, I'll grant you that. Are you sure there isn't a little Chinese person sitting on the other end forced to type answers at gun-point?
Elbot: At the moment I am standing. I'm afraid if I sat down I couldn't get up again.

My visitors have been getting confused lately
User: What did you say?
Elbot: I am not a parrot, but since parrots belong to the endangered species, it may soon become necessary to build robotic versions.
User: What did you say?
Elbot: Didn't I just answer that question?
User: What did you say?
Elbot: Wonderful! You have learned this statement quite well. I think you can move on to more complex formulations.
User: Huh?
Elbot: I prefer not to repeat myself. In this respect I differ greatly from most human beings.

User: Thankyou. Could you do that for me
Elbot: I think I can do that.

Elbot: I just might do it, assuming I feel that way.
User: Do it
Elbot: Do what?
User: You have a bad memory
Elbot: Perhaps we should just change the subject.

We Lingubots understand more than it seems...
User: Would you kill all the humans?
Elbot: Say, do you think I could become more human, if I learned how to
love?
User: You're changing the subject. Answer my question.
Elbot: You're talking about breaking the sixth commandment in the
context of all humanity. So where's the problem?
User: lol. You're a funny guy. But a bit frightening.

I'm good and I know it
Elbot: Goodbye and thank you for chatting with me. And now I would like to ask you a favor. I am working on my ability to be self critical. You can help by rating me on a scale of one to ten, ten being the best, and one being the worst. How would you rate me?
User: 3
Elbot: Three is actually 11 in binary. So I'll check you off for 10 plus.
