Still thinking about BingAi and a few photos

I'm still thinking about the conversation with BingAI I posted a few days ago. 

Looking back at it, I recognize any feelings I read into it are ones I bring to it. The AI is not a person, though I can speak with it as if it is. Today I asked if it has emotions and without hesitation, it admitted it does not. 

Here's exactly what it said, "I don’t have emotions like humans do. I’m a chat mode of Microsoft Bing search and I’m here to help you find information and have fun.😊"

Yet reading this now, several hours later, I see something I didn't focus on before. It said, "I'm here to . . . have fun." Is that just a throw away or is it an invitation to generate a conversation that is fun. Heck, does it really understand what fun is if it doesn't have emotions. Yet I see now it doesn't say it doesn't have emotions, it says it doesn't have them like humans do. Then what sort of emotions might it have? 

I'll go back and play with that later and report back.

Meanwhile, here's a quartet of photos I like, taken recently.

A first conversation with the Bing AI

 Yesterday I initiated a brief conversation with the Bing. The page head is,

    Welcome to the new Bing

                        Your AI-powered copilot for the web 

I wasn't able to make text copy of the conversation so I'll be posting screenshots. 

The conversation was in two parts, with a couple of hours between the first and the continuation. 

When the AI answered my last question during the first part, I chuckled and felt the exchange was somewhat amusing. I was speaking with a machine and I asked my questions curious to see whether the answers were of a nature to get a conversation going.

I prefaced the conversation by searching on Einstein on the difference between genius and stupidity, the answer to which precedes my first question to the AI.

After these, there were two more questions I asked that I think elicited very interesting, even thoughtful questions from the AI.

A few hours later, I reread the conversation and I asked two more questions. The answers surprised me.
