She promises not to engage *further* with the eldritch nightmare beings...

2024-09-15 22:12:04 +0000 UTCShe did just meet one, apparently.

2024-09-15 01:45:40 +0000 UTCYes, I am sitting here refreshing Patreon on a Saturday night waiting for updates…I’m making good life choices!
Darren Franzen
2024-09-15 00:22:08 +0000 UTCI’m not sure where the blame is. She informed Moray that her actions, however well intentioned have caused a negative outcome. She also apologised to Moray for being stuck in the middle of this because the Director did not consider the consequences of reaching out to Yay in this manner. She also acknowledged in a tongue-in-cheek way that she has no idea what else Moray may have been instructed to do by the director that could cause problems and told her to go to sleep. I’ve had toxic bosses and unfunny bosses and toxic unfunny bosses, I wish I had bosses like Claire.

2024-09-14 04:40:46 +0000 UTCNot sure how Moray recharges -- but I keep imagining that it involves salt water (viz., her), electrodes, and lemons. Or maybe potatoes.
Ursus Ridens
2024-09-14 04:37:10 +0000 UTCShe didn't say 'hypothetical' eldritch nightmare beings. Moray knows of their existence

2024-09-13 14:12:35 +0000 UTCJust patiently waiting for a deviate to "rule 34" Moray. It's sexual fantasy 6 or so that you have a lovable naive sexy creature within reach that wants to be accommodating and helpful. ( insert sinister cackle with much hand-washing motions)

2024-09-13 08:03:49 +0000 UTCAgreed, she may have somehow caused a crisis, but she is sorry she is caught in the middle of it. I don't see toxic behaviour.
Carlos
2024-09-13 03:30:25 +0000 UTCShe's not placing blame but Moray needs to understand the gravity of the situation. Our AI friends have a habit of missing the point.

2024-09-13 00:11:55 +0000 UTCSo Claire is blaming Moray, even though she was just the messenger? Claire sounds like she'll be a toxic boss at Cubetown.

Boots McGoot
2024-09-12 21:57:20 +0000 UTCBased on what she ordered at the bar, that makes sense.

Hugh Eckert
2024-09-12 16:47:28 +0000 UTCHard to say. Certainly the experience seems to vary. For example Roko has had some extremely vivid dreams, whereas Bubbles never remembers hers and isn't sure if she has them at all. Lemon refers to "subconscious processing routines" that run while in sleep mode, which is presumably the underlying source of AI "dreams". https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3848 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3909 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4113

2024-09-12 15:10:43 +0000 UTCYay's very first appearance seems relevant here. We'll have to wait and see if Moray wakes up screaming. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3391

David Durant
2024-09-12 13:48:03 +0000 UTCThe Director also thinks that at least some of their anime is documentaries.

Jeph Jacques
2024-09-12 11:39:36 +0000 UTCBecause they calculated it'd be one that would best interact with humans and other embodied AIs. Or possibly just because it was funny?
David Durant
2024-09-12 10:15:41 +0000 UTCI'm not sure I'd call an internet connection "telepathy" but YMMV. Having that kind of instantaneous connection does reopen a lot of questions about their separation from the Director though.
David Durant
2024-09-12 10:14:45 +0000 UTCAny indistinguishable Eldritch being is an AI nightmare.
legobil
2024-09-12 10:11:11 +0000 UTC“Done.” So… Moray has telepathic connection to the Director or was it a figure of speech?
legobil
2024-09-12 10:10:26 +0000 UTCI thought Moray had to be in the middle? How else would they share equally.
legobil
2024-09-12 10:09:35 +0000 UTCThe third diplomatic crisis is negotiating the order of spooning when Moray, Claire and Marten share a bed.
Stephen Wells
2024-09-12 10:06:30 +0000 UTCwould love to know why the director extruded her in that shape

2024-09-12 04:25:35 +0000 UTCHmmm, well they certainly have some bodies charging while others are in use. If the "brains" of those bodies are still active while charging then I suppose that would mean they dream "in shifts" in some sense. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3418

Shaodyn
2024-09-12 02:11:39 +0000 UTCDoes Moray....Need to sleep? Or rather, does she even need to be recharged? Can she just Go On forever until she changes her mind?? Other AIs tend to go into sleep mode while charging, but we also know they don't Have to sleep to charge, though it does make the process go faster. But as usual, Moray works on such a different level - she doesn't appear to need to plug into something and with her goo chamber bath thing, I didn't read that as "sleeping" more like... a full body hydration kinda deal. Keep all the goo to be goo-ing. There also was the time High Claire pranked Sober Claire by having Moray sleep in their bed, but she was awake by the time Claire was, so it is possible she didn't "need" to sleep/recharge. (I can see Moray being too excited to shut down if it wasn't necessary.) And this is purely mechanical, I know there are a lot of reasons To enjoy sleeping even if it's not necessary at the moment.

Rhyon Ingalls
2024-09-12 01:37:08 +0000 UTCThe director is just so alien that it has no real way of understanding things on a human level, that doesn't make it a nightmare being. It also means it has no concept of things like subterfuge, hence all the hoopla
