  It fails the usual memory tests. Zach W proposes asking it first about what it liked on its trip to Australia and soon after, why it has always avoided visiting Australia or some such thing. It provides plausible answers to both - which is problematic. Except that there exist people who behave somewhat oddly similarly.
