[Wait hold the phone-]

You're an AI program?

[Because, synthetic being oh she can get that. But a program?]

[written] fight4theusers February 5 2011, 05:37:41 UTC

That's right. Is there a problem?

[written] compos_mentis February 6 2011, 08:29:10 UTC

in the book- ?
or do you have a "body"

[Yes, the writing got worse for a moment, she actually started to do it one-handed there. She's reaching to set herself up with a new cigarette]

[It takes Tron a moment to realize what she's asking, but he eventually responds.]

I am not inside the communication devices, no. I have a physical body that was brought here.

[Ironically, it probably would have been easier on Tron if he were trapped in the journals...]

[written] compos_mentis February 7 2011, 23:52:05 UTC

An AI subroutine with a body. Now that is something you don't hear everyday.

[written] fight4theusers February 8 2011, 05:16:13 UTC

Security program, actually. And yes, I am aware that it is unusual here. I appear to be the only one of my kind in this place.

[written] compos_mentis February 9 2011, 04:33:26 UTC

Only one I've heard of ever. [And she thought she'd seen it all if it wasn't mythos... or man she is now sorely temped to try to hunt this fellow down and take him apart. Damn curiosity]

Security though, huh? What's so special it needs that level of security?

[written] fight4theusers February 9 2011, 05:08:51 UTC

[That question takes him aback a bit, and it's a moment before he responds.]

The Creator of my system brought me in to protect it. He said I was the best. I was tasked with keeping it stable and safe while it was being built, and helping to keep it running smoothly for all programs there.

I... do not know if I am anything special to speak of, however. There may be other security programs far better.

Too humble.

[...Tap, tap]

Get many invasions on that system you need to defend against?

[written] fight4theusers February 9 2011, 06:15:47 UTC

No, it is a closed system. Our... issues come from within. [And oh, there are issues...] Gridbugs in the system can cause it to collapse. Rogue programs, viruses, corrupted data... all of that can cause problems.

And then there was CLU, but he won't bring him up, not yet...

[written] compos_mentis February 10 2011, 23:21:34 UTC

Rogue programs? [The other parts she's putting in context but how can a program go rogue? Numerous AIs? Who would bother with- Well no, that makes sense but you'd think they would differentiate- there's now a need to check if this is a True AI or not]

[written] fight4theusers February 11 2011, 09:14:29 UTC

Yes... programs who begin to act against the will of their User. They may be corrupted or damaged, or simply become something different than intended.

There have not been... many of these.

[written] compos_mentis February 13 2011, 04:24:40 UTC

Sounds like a poorly written system.

[written] fight4theusers February 13 2011, 04:53:58 UTC

[Oh, there's a long pause. Tron tries to restrain his anger at the insinuation, trying to remind himself that this... person does not know Flynn, does not know of their system and programs.]

That would be an incorrect assumption.

[written] compos_mentis February 13 2011, 23:04:32 UTC

I'm sure.
