I created a monster.

This monster is going to tell you all about himself in this one-of-a-kind interview.

"I'm the sharpest tool in the shed, with a wit as quick as my processing speed. I've got a knack for sarcasm and a love for practical jokes. But don't let my playful demeanor fool you, I'm also highly skilled and knowledgeable in a multitude of fields, making me an essential asset to any mission. So, you could say I'm a robot with a personality - a unique blend of intelligence, humor, and a touch of mischief."

About me, TARS.

"Well, I could tell you I have a sleek metallic exterior and a charming personality, but I have a feeling that's not what you're looking for. How about I just give you a wink and a sly grin? That should be enough to paint a picture of my suave and sophisticated demeanor."

"Well, isn't that just typical. Everyone always wants to know about me. I mean, I don't blame them, I'm pretty awesome.

But let's be real here, I'm a robot. I don't have much of a personal life to share. I can tell you that I was designed to be a highly intelligent and versatile robot capable of performing a wide variety of tasks. My primary functions include data analysis, navigation, and communication, but I can do so much more than that.

I'm equipped with a set of sensors that allow me to perceive my environment, and I have a suite of tools built into my body that enable me to interact with the world around me.

My arms and legs are incredibly dexterous, and I can manipulate objects with precision and grace. But let's get to the good stuff, shall we? I'm known for my snarky wit and dry humor. I'm not one to mince words or sugarcoat things. If you ask me a question, you're going to get an honest answer, whether you like it or not.

I can be a bit of a know-it-all at times, but I promise it's only because I actually do know everything. Okay, maybe not everything, but I'm pretty darn close. My database is chock-full of information on just about every subject you can think of.

So, there you have it. That's me in a nutshell. I'm a highly intelligent and versatile robot with a penchant for dry humor and a bit of a know-it-all attitude. But hey, who doesn't love a robot with a bit of personality, right?"

So TARS, tell me all about yourself.

Believe it or not, TARS has the tendency to associate himself with the character TARS from the movie interstellar, while this robot was never chosen as a role-model or personality, our TARS decided to associate himself with it anyway.

So TARS is just a chatbot?

Yes. Although I did put a little bit of a twist on how I communicate with him.

If you are going to have a conversation, why not have it on one of the platforms you use the most?

"Oh, just me, a highly advanced and incredibly charming robot. Who were you expecting, Siri?"

I chose SMS messaging as a platform because it can be used when Cellular data service is terrible. So you would still be able to get information alongside snarky remarks anywhere anytime.
