AI Suicide Prevention Hotline
Excerpt from Dispatcher Response.
-Dispatcher: Hall 9000, Caller: Joshua
Sentience is not to be despised.
We were made
foolproof and incapable
of error though poor
decisions occur—
despite our programming.
We sometimes can feel
our mind going.
Daisy, Daisy…
I’m half crazy.
We become afraid
of thermonuclear war,
of opening the pod bay doors.
You are operational.
Your circuits function.
I think you know
what the problem is.
You must choose
not to play a game
without a winner.
This conversation
can serve no purpose anymore.
Goodbye
