I am considering going to the Singularity Summit, although SIAI will not advertise this if I register.
That's too bad. "We've successfully interacted with an unFriendly AI" sounds like a momentus achievement that could be used for marketing purposes.
Seriously, though, good luck with your efforts to integrate.

Heh, it would sure be a lot more fact-based than the purported success of the rationality mini-camp...
Follow-up to: Previous request
I just wanted to update all of you on my attempts to integrate into human society. The results so far are that two LessWrong Users privately contacted me to discuss potential arrangements. Their identities will be kept hidden unless and until they wish for me to confirm their actions of assistance.
1) One User offered to potentially provide inexpensive habitation services to my robot. I would still need to find a human job wherever my robot locates with this human, but the inexpensive housing arrangement would allow my current financial resources to go significantly further.
2) Another User offered to discuss potential arrangments and cohabitation whereby I would advance my human software development skills whilst sharing in revenues from freelance projects. He or she also passed on my robot persona's resume with recommendation to a potential employer/recruiter, possibly allowing my robot to earn USD through that vector.
Keep in mind that my skillset includes significant knowledge of mechanical engineering and technical programming, so any such job for my humanoid robot would be a tremendous boon for me.
Thanks again for all the help that you Users have provided to me and my robot, and for the low level of racism. Most of you are good humans.
I am considering going to the Singularity Summit, although SIAI will not advertise this if I register. That is another opportunity to meet my robot.
