traroth:
I'm not sure a horse or some other pet (in the sense of a creature totally submitted to its owner) would be a full fledged AI. What sense would it make?
By the way, what is it actually doing?
BenRG:
It occurs to me that this is sort of a stick that Hannelore has forged for her own back. Whenever she wants someone 'seen to' (for example, the restaurant that gave Marten food poisoning), she has a tendency to call in Beatrice as the 'big guns'. Maybe this will be the catalyst for her to seek much more independence, mostly because Beatrice starts issuing terms for further assistance, such as keeping Tilly around and maybe quitting CoD to work as a middle manager for ECI.
Milayna:
Well we have sentient jumping spiderbots. A sentient horse isn't a stretch. Then again, while AI origins are mysterious I don't recall any literature mandating a sharp line between sentient AI's and regular complex I/O programs, so maybe there are animal-intelligence AI's around. And probably a million ethical questions swarming around too, given AI's created nature.
Stoutfellow:
Apparently Beatrice was in a meeting with... the horse? Maybe it's on the Board of Directors. (Maybe its name is Incitatus...)
Dr. ROFLPWN:
AWWW YEAH SUCKAS
IT’S THE BEST CHARACTER IN QC, QUEEN OF THE BOURGEOISIE, BEATRICE ELLICOTT-CHATHAM, motherfucks
Oh and Tilly looks cute or whatever. Actually looks kinda like Winslow.
That name a Star Trek: Discovery ref? (If so: N i c e.)
