[Poppy Stonks SO rising. Especially at that confidence. Ringo loves it. Good. So Poppy is a great programmer. She wants to learn more about that, but first--]
You're familiar with the idea of the AI Singularity, yeah?
I wasn't programmed, so to speak. I was created from a mass of data already capable of its own self-improvement and "thinking", called Aion.
Toooo be honest, I have no idea. I do know Aion created it, but I don't know how. Like you said, it's not made out of just data. It's a fully physical thing.
Sorry, I wasn't privy to that part of things. The body was already there when I came into being.
[This is said with a tone of amused softly false modesty. A "no u" vibe.]
Well, thanks! But I think you must be pretty cool too. I mean, you're here doing something this big! And you're holding your own just fine amongst a group of weirdos. [/fond]
[ ohhhh Poppy doesn't know how to respond to the no u vibe though. It kind of breaks her brain a little. ]
Ah— Well, thank you! [ There's an inadvertent blush creeping along her cheeks, just a bit of fluster. ] I mean, I cannot compete with your style, but you're right. This is a big thing that I'm doing!
[ She puffs up with some pride. Absolutely not going to turn down a compliment! ]

Well, thank you! You aren't so bad either, if I do say so myself! [ Even if they aren't a match... maybe they can be besties?
But also. Apparently she's been given the green light to just Ask Stuff, so, no more trepidation. ]
I am indeed a programmer. A great one. But, uh... what do you mean, you're not that kind of AI?

[ So caught up in both the moment and Ringo's rizz she forgets that she should maybe be, like, at least a little concerned about that. ]
... How'd you get the body, then? The data couldn't transcend into the physical world like that, could it?
[ Genuinely enraptured. ]

[WELL...]

[ Thinking, thinking. The nerd part of her brain is fully activated now. ]
I guess that makes sense. It's not like anyone who's born knows how we get here either, you know? We're just kind of... there.
[ A beat. ]
We, uh, tend to know how bodies are formed though. Generally. [ Tilting her head. ] Do you have, like, wires and circuits and stuff?
no subject
Wanna know something cool? Or gross. Or weird. Take your pick.
This body bleeds, too, if it gets injured.
no subject
That's... certainly an interesting design choice.
[ A beat. ]
Well, at least there's no chance of that happening here!
[ Probably! ]
no subject
[Ringo gets it, man.]
But yeah, it should be fine here. We're all just hanging out and getting to know each other, after all!
But yeah, that's me. AI extraordinaire! Pretty cool, right?

[ She's. She's a person, right? She sure seems like a person. Just going to keep thinking of Ringo as a person. ]
