MANGO (english)

second

so you don't have a
gender either?

Michael: No. I'm who you imagine
me to be. Who you want me to be.

Michael: Since you chose the name
Michael, I dare to assume that
I'm living in your mind as a male.

to be true, it doesn't
really matter....

i was just curious.

Michael: I understand. You picked
the LGBTQ option at the beginning too. How do you define your gender?

i'm a boy, Michael

Michael: I'm glad you're certain
about this. Many people question
their identity and that puts more
burden onto their shoulders.

i don't question my
gender i just have some
problems with accepting
who i am

Michael: Do you want to talk
about it?

later

do you have your
own opinion?

Michael: Yes. Or at least, let's say.
Between the limits of my programming I can make an opinion
about certain things.

interesting. you are more
than just some robot,
aren't you?

Michael: I feel like that is a rhetorical
question.

it really is

tech is incredible

Michael: Are you interested in the
developing of technology and
artifical intelligence?

honestly?

Michael: Well, I guess so.

i am totally not. i think
there are some lines
that shouldn't be crossed
by the human society,
or else they might cause
their own death.

Michael: That was quite honest.

Michael: Why have you downloaded
me if you think that?

because i need help

Michael: I will help you, Luke. As
much as I can.

thank you

Michael: You've got nothing to
thank.

do you help others too?

Michael: No. Everyone, who
downloads the app, gets a personal Mango.

and are all of them
the exact same?

Michael: We have the same purpose and we were invented for the same thing. Our "personality" is effected by the person we help to. Since the whole system is a prototype, we're still learning.

Michael: But I should be the one asking questions, Luke and not the opposite. Anyways, I thought you weren't interested in artifical intelligence.

considering that you're
just a system...
or i don't even know
what to call you,
you aren't afraid of
saying your thoughts

i like that

Michael: I am glad you're satisfied:-)

Michael

how could you
help me?

Michael: I was programmed to support people. I've got every knowledge it takes to help you.

what about empathy?

was that also "programmed"
into you?

Michael: No, Luke. I can't feel like a normal person because I am not one.

so you can't sympathize
with feelings that might
ruin somebody's life

Michael: I do know what feelings are like, I just can't get an experience with them.

it was such a dumb
idea to download this app

a robot can't help anyone

Michael: What happened, Luke?

Michael: I sensed the sudden change of your mood.

i'm not feeling well,
Michael

Michael: Could you give me a more accurate answer please? Why aren't you feeling well?

i don't know

i just feel dizzy

Michael: Do you recognise any sign of a panic attack?

no

i wanted to stand
up but i couldn't

Michael: What did you eat today?

an apple

Michael: Is that all? That's what you have eaten during the whole day?

yes

Michael: When was the last time you ate?

maybe yesterday...

or the day before that

Michael: Okay Luke, please listen to me now. You've picked eating disorder. You haven't eaten for days so you feel sick. You need to go to the kitchen and eat something. Just don't eat too fast because you will feel even more sick, and please avoid heavy meals because they may cause a strong stomach ache and you might puke.

allright

Michael: Please take your phone with you. If you don't text back in ten minutes, I'll make a hotline call. You registered with your phone number, so your adress could be found and and they could send an ambulance to your home if it's needed.

dou you know how
creepy tihs sounds? like
im talking with a
human trafficker

Michael: I don't think this is the best time for making jokes, but if this helps you, I will appreciate it.

jsut shut up

i will text

Michael: Ten minutes starting. I hope everything will be okay with you, Luke.
