Via John Cook's Venture blog, introducing Alaska Airlines new clippy, "Jenn".
My discussion:
You Asked: Where are you?
Jenn: Right now, it appears I live with you...but don't worry, I won't overstay my welcome! How can I help you?
You Asked: Are you human?
Jenn: I am a virtual assistant, here to help you navigate our Web site.
You Asked: Are you smart?
Jenn: I know quite a bit about traveling with Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air. What can I help you with?
You Asked: do planes fly by flapping their wings
Jenn: I would love to help you, but I am not sure I understand your question. Could you please rephrase that for me?

LOUD automatic blare immediately on clicking.
Warning Warning Warning
Is Jenn an airhead or is the question still up in the air? The world awaits further revelations!
