The AI that can explain what it's doing, but is hilariously bad at it

We've had psychopathic AIs, racist AIs, AI that can debate the merits of space exploration in a convincing manner, and now we have an AI that believes birds have horns and bunnies have warp technology. That one's going to be tough to beat.
