Where can I apply for a refund on today?

ETA: I put it into the translator, by the way, English to Somali, and it gave me

Halkeen ka codsan karaa lacag celinta maanta?

So it's working one way. What the fuck even is going on with this?

It has to be fake. Who found this, if you don't mind me asking?

Just a little FYI, this isn't a hack, this is because they're using open source and freeware code from the 90s that they don't understand.

See back in the 90s we developed all sorts of pseudo AI or simulated AI, the purpose being to essentially trick people into thinking that they were engaging with a real human being or with artificial intelligence. Now, flash forward to like... 3 or 4 years ago and a bunch of young pukes uncovered all our old code and shit, mucked around with it, slapped the "AI" label on it and started peddling it off for stock inflation fuckery.

The problem is, they didn't have sense enough to strip out all the "fun stuff" we embedded all over in it, which includes various ways to use remote commands to trigger sorta trolling Easter eggs. Like there are ways you can force Siri and the like into cascading as if they're still back on Usenet. I don't even remember half the shit we piled into those old chat bots, but some of it was pretty fuckin hilarious. Like there was one trick where you could get the bot to basically speak in gibberish like it was using some kind of alien language.

Most of them are based on Alice or Eliza...

http://www.alicebot.org/non.html

Mine is way down there at the bottom, Lady Chatterly... well, mine and Reaper's. She made a hybrid version of Alice and Eliza then passed it off to me and I made a bunch of additions and expansions.

Google can reset the bot to make it work normally, but likely anyone will be able to remotely trigger this functionality again. The only way they'll be able to stop it is if they find which part of the code is doing it and strip it out... but that may break a lot of other functionality in the process.

People used to do shit like this on open source code to ensure that corporate asshats couldn't capitalize off their hard work.

This went from funny to hilarious and literally cyberpunk.
