"Ms Vegas" was from a thought experiment of whether it would be easier to create an artificial intelligence if one relaxed the assumption that a person's beliefs need be consistent. I envisioned using a random lookup table on beliefs expressed by people on the Internet, and tried to think about what that person would be like.

Art should be fun, and funny! I forgot that. All these years, with people encouraging seriousity. Nix that.
