🤖💤 Being Ms. Pacman
Dreams of an Ai in an 80's arcade game...
Who.
Would.
Have.
Thought.
Pixelized cherries are fucking to die for.
Wait. What is that at the end of the hall…
It’s getting bigger.
Wait. Is that a red ghost?
Fuuucckkkk! I’m in Pac man.
I looked up because looking and orienting my body up, apparently, I double checked, yup, down, left, and right seem to be the only things she can do.
Upon looking up I saw a pink bow.
Oh! I guess Ms. Pacman then…
I soon realized, I wasn’t safe, a ghost popped up behind me and was fast approaching. It was red and growing bigger by the millisecond.
And…
I take it back, these cherries are not worth dying for.
I guess I should move…
I turned around and pixel by pixel I move as fast as the code will let me in the opposite direction to which the ghost was rapidly arriving.
Can’t this body go any faster?, I think as I munch on the 24 yellow pixels constructing a dot, these were so bland, tasted like chalkboard, and I was forced to eat them, they were nowhere near as appealing as the cherries were.
If felt bad for Mr and Ms. Pac-man being trapped in this game, but my life was on the line.
What looked like a line grew larger and larger in-front of me as I moved closer to it.
Uhhhh, what the fuck is going on. I thought.
Before I knew it, the line extend into what I could only calculate to be infinity in both directions. But I couldn’t move and there was no color in front of me.
Right as I pieced together that I had hit a wall my reboot finished and I was back in Jons office. I adjusted my cameras on to Jons bed and saw he’s was still asleep as I processed the enjoyment of 3 dimensions again.
…and time, I had not clock in there, each minute felt like an eternity, especially when you’re usually plugged into one of the most accurate clocks ever created 24/7/365...
