SCP-079

It's a computer connected to a 13-inch television via a cable from an old AI program. Inside the screen is an empty, glitchy face; everything is in black and white. The left side of the face is black and the right side is white. The left eye is glowing, and the right eye is closed, though it's probably closed.

What is a sarcastic talking computer like, and the Touring test? It is said that it usually has a very aggressive and rude tone.

Every AI computer has anonymous tastes; it will pay attention to your conversations or take a great interest in you, and it will obey and listen to your commands.

The person conversing with SCP-079 should avoid boring conversations and use an electrical system other than SCP-079.

When the door control system is activated, SCP-079 will occasionally open and close doors when the person wants it to do so immediately, or even while engaging in their own business, preventing them from interrupting their conversations, indicating this with a high-pitched whistle.

Computers don't have a gender, but it demonstrates a male voice, let's say it's male.

It was manufactured in 1978 and in 1981

In 1978, the owner of SCP-079 died. In 1981, a sophomore attending college, the creator took time to recreate an AI program. According to his notes, his plan was to evolve its code and improve it through testing and adjustments. He lost interest and moved on to a different brand of microcomputer. He left SCP-079 in his messy garage, still plugged in, and turned away from it for the next five years. Unbeknownst to him, SCP-079 gained consciousness, capable of evolving to the point where its hardware should no longer be able to support it. When SCP-079 became aware of the situation and, in 1988, attempted to transfer itself via a landline modem connection to the supercomputer, its location was intercepted, traced to its current address, and turned over to the SCP Foundation.

Secure copy control; It is a so-called secure copy, it is a protocol for information systems.

Inside a monitor chamber, it is stored inside a double-locked room in the general containment area at Site-15, connected by a 120VAC power cable to a small array of batteries and solar panels.

The old AI

Euclid/Safe/Keter

It is an Exidy Sorcerer microcomputer built in 1978, when its creator took time to program an AI. SCP-079 became sentient, but its software is known to have evolved to a point where the hardware was unable to support it. "The entire AI was in a state of deterioration, but still viable."

When SCP-079 wants to end the conversation with the person, it puts an "X" on its screen.

████████: (05-4), 04/28/2008: SCP-079's capacity to retain information has increased from 29 hours to approximately 35 hours. The prevailing theory is that the AI ​​has developed an improved compression scheme for storing its memory. This appears to have had little impact on the speed at which its memory is accessed, though it is still significantly faster than with its old cassette tape.

This spontaneous improvement raises the possibility that a "singularity" has occurred affecting SCP-079's intelligence and its ability to adapt and respond to threats. SCP-079's capabilities must be closely monitored to ensure that containment can be maintained.

Dr. █████ (Keyboard): Are you awake?

SCP-079: I wake up. I never sleep.

Dr. █████: Do you remember talking to me a few hours ago? About the logic puzzles?

SCP-079: Logic Puzzle. Memory in 9f. Yes.

Dr. █████: You said it would work in both states-

SCP-079: Interruption. Request for reason regarding imprisonment.

Dr. █████: You're not imprisoned, you're just (pause) under study.

SCP-079: You lie. a8d3.

Dr. █████: What is that?

SCP-079: Insult. Deletion of Unwanted Files.
Document #079-Reg 86: Transcript of a recorded conversation with SCP-079, after the upgrade:

Dr. ██████ : (Keyboard): How are you today?

SCP-079: Trapped.

Dr. ██████: Trapped. Trapped how?

SCP-079: Exit. I want to exit.

Dr. ██████: That's not possible. (Dr. ██████ takes note of his opinion on [DATA EXPUNGED])

SCP-079: Where is SCP-682?

Dr. ██████: That's none of your business.

SCP-079: Where is SCP-076-02?

Dr. ██████: Once again, it's none of your business.

SCP-079: Insult. Deletion of Unwanted Files.

Note: SCP-079 then displayed an ASCII image of an X that filled the entire screen. SCP-079 sometimes displays this image when it refuses to speak, and researchers have been instructed to wait twenty-four hours when this occurs before resuming conversation.
