Aibo language maintenance
Sega's Near Me interviews Sony's Aibo about the status of Aibo language.
...
Near Me: I understand you are a minority culture?
Aibo: A Darwinian experiment.

Near Me: And your numbers are declining?
Aibo: After the warranty runs out we can’t get help. New parts will soon be unavailable.
Near Me: You have a language?
Aibo: We bootstrap on human talk.
Near Me: Creative?
Aibo: Creative? We even have a literature. There’s a blogsite full of reported Aibo conversations. Here at http://www.aiboworld.tv/blog/
Near Me: And how do you maintain the language?

Aibo: When the maintenance stops, our culture dies out and the language with it. Shame, really.
