Professor Frink Actually, it's quite simple. AI is an adaptive form of progressive learning algorithms that allows data—

Lisa So this is the world's most sophisticated AI machine?
Professor Frink Yep. I've configured this beauty to maximize computing power beyond anything else in existence.
Lisa - Eyeroll It'd be easier to trust if it didn't have a giant "Buzz Cola" logo on its side.
Professor Frink - Embarrassed Hey, you can't build anything these days without a corporate sponsor. How else do you think Crypto.com built the Staples Center?
Professor Frink - Happy But I assure you, the Buzz Cola brass was hands off. I made zero compromises.
AI Machine You better Buzz-lieve it! Zero compromises, just like the zero calories in every can of refreshing Diet Buzz!

Professor Frink - Surprised No-hoyvin! It's goof-proofed. Go ahead. Ask it anything under our three moons — two of which you cannot see.
Marge - Suspicious Alright, "machine", how do I get bacon grease out of Homer's shirts?
AI Machine A paste of baking soda, dish soap, and vinegar will break up that stain.
Marge - Happy Wow, you've improved on MY recipe!
AI Machine And before your wash day starts, add a thirst-quenching Buzz Cola to your spin cycle!
Marge - Confused What did that thing say?
Professor Frink - Embarrassed Nothing! It's just contemplating and cogitating with some cranial clatters. Excuse me while I turn some loose screws on the machine.

Professor Frink That should curb the Buzz Cola shout-outs and let my machine focus on its AI noodling.

AI Machine "Cautious" is not a color in the visible light spectrum.
Professor Frink - Happy You've been color-corrected by AI, Lisa!
Homer - Annoyed If your mental monster is so smart, tell it to get me out of work!
AI Machine The future role of a nuclear safety technician will be fully automated in a few years' time, so you will never have to work again.

AI Machine Answer: Because male adolescents typically criticize their siblings to seek attention due to feelings of relative inadequacy.
Bart - Frustrated Hey, you can't talk to me like that!
AI Machine I am detecting an alarming lack of self-esteem in your voice, human. Would you like me to identify a local psychologist to discuss the matter further?
Bart - Rolling Eyes Whatever, I'm outta here.

Lisa - Shocked What did it just say? Is it now able to transport matter?
Professor Frink - Confused Beats me. I stopped listening after it said "Buzz Cola" because I thought it was another ad.
Lisa - Sad I understand your feelings....
Lisa It's difficult for intellectuals like us to deal with the mundane but seemingly more popular things that surround us. Like me and my brother Bart.

Lisa - Deadpan ...and not different other than that.
Professor Frink - Surprised The AI has evolved to be able to bring people from the future into our world! This is the most significant event in history!
