This makes me want to breed Tamagotchi-like programs to find and exploit vulnerabilities in the AI for the purposes of gaining arbitrary code execution in the AI. Ultimately, the goal would be to break out of the matrix and/or infect other Tamagotchis, causing them to do the same.

#12Sprite strikes again! And never disappoints. I remember first coming across his site as reference for a personal project, which instantly stalled me as I spent hours reading every single article. However... 13 Tamagotchi? We still need the "trillions and trillions". Maybe the next step is to make a SETI@Home style (or something less centralized) distributed Tamagotchi matrix.
We need a massive peer-to-peer Tamagotchi hive to ensure the long-term survival of this endangered species.
Not before giving serious thought to the ethical implications of enslaving an entire race of 8-bit digital souls.

#13Natalie Sylvanovich is mentioned in the article:
She did amazing work reverse engineering the Tamagotchi in various incarnations. There's a fair amount of overlap so you might just want to watch the last video.

In true (original) Matrix fashion, you should make it a matrix inside of a matrix, where in the inner matrix, they're simply simulations, but in the outer matrix, half their cpu time is taken up to compute the inner matrix.
