Marketing people at MS:
What should we name this virtual assistant? How about Cortana? What’s a Cortana? It’s that assistant from Halo, it’s like Clippy but with boobs.
Clippy only ever worked in office, I think Microsoft purged all Microsoft Agent software back in XP except for the dog one (the little animation you see when you search for files in XP).
There’s an SDK for Microsoft Agent compatible software. You could hook up Clippy to a voice synthesizer and ChatGPT…

You mean Cortana which was a rebrand of Clippy.

Fun fact: Cortana is named after a French sword
What’s the Pillar of Autumn named after?
Some dude named Autumn’s dick
Copy that, Pho Hammer
It’s Foe-hammer. Named after some bearded weirdo’s elven sword.
Cortanas boobs got nerfed in the later games
Clippy never had a voice and tbh the one that comes to mind for him is not very easy on the ears. Like downpitched spongebob.
Clippy’s voice is the shrieks of bending metal, but on too small a scale to be heard by human ears.
I wish we got Clippy with boobs, id even settle for a Bonzi Buddy with boobs.
Best I can do is your chest with boobs
it’s worth it
