Can a machine make friends? When Twilight Sparkle finds the first independently functioning automaton in Equestrian history, she decides to find out.This My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Fanfic by The Hat Man centers around a mysterious robot pony who gets struck by lightning and loses her original programming. Twilight, being the student she is, takes the robot, whom she names "Turing Test," under her wing. The story owes a lot to the likes of Isaac Asimov and Star Trek: The Next Generation in particular, among other works depicting fictional robots. It is mainly a slice-of-life comedy about the titular character's development and growth through The Power of Friendship, though it also has an ongoing story about who Turing's creators are and what they want.The story can be found here.The story also features original illustrations, drawn by the author's friend Colby Green.

Gadget is an expert in technology whose skills outstrip everypony else around her, even her mentor. Despite thinking faster, Turing Test is not this due to her rigid mentality and lack of imagination or experience.

Meaningful Name: Twilight names her robot companion "Turing Test" after the robot intelligence test of the same name. Her real designation is Unit 003, which carries some unsettling implications.

Punny Name
 The Iron Horse: Everything's Better With Robots! (Fanfic) / int_6d7026fa
comment
Punny Name: A lot, especially with regard to characters both on- and off-screen who are based on historical figures, particularly from The Gilded Age and the Second Industrial Revolution, though a few more modern scientists are mentioned as well. Cornelius Vanderbull is a minotaur (based on Railroad Baron Cornelius Vanderbilt). Gadget's real name is Gadgette. Rockefoaler (named for John D. Rockefeller). Carneighgie (Andrew Carnegie, whose name, when pronounced correctly actually sounds the same). Talon Turing, Turing Test's namesake, is a Griffon (and of course named for computer scientist Alan Turing). Searlebiscuit is a philosopher mentioned who doubts the possibility of artificial intelligence (named for John Searle, his real-life counterpart, and Seabiscuit, the famous racing horse). Twilight references a sci-fi book written by Isaac Assiteague (Asimov, obviously, along with a particular breed of pony).

Reference Overdosed
 The Iron Horse: Everything's Better With Robots! (Fanfic) / int_8e1aef2d
comment
Reference Overdosed: Very much the case, as the author has a penchant for referential humor, and as the story is something of a love letter to sci-fi movies and stories about robots in general. YMMV on if this is funny or not. Some of the many references: Many of the chapter titles themselves are references to computer science or music related to science or robots.Daft Punk and Jonathan Coulton are a few examples. Rainbow Dash gets impatient waiting to start an aerial race and demands they get the show on the road. Turing Test's response? "Where we are going, we do not need roads." One of Turing Test's first acts is to order Fluttershy to be friends with her, telling her she has 20 seconds to comply. Doctor Whooves is obvious, as are his numerous references to his human counterpart. Notably, Derpy Hooves dresses up as a certain statuesque monster for Nightmare Night. Rainbow Dash gets Turing Test to stand up for herself with the phrase "Bite my shiny metal flank." Gadget goes on a date to a restaurant called Daisy Daisy. Turing Test's costume and some of her lines are a reference to the Tin Soldier costume in Team Fortress 2. The story's not above an occasional Fandom Shout-Out. Lyra tells Bon Bon that if she eats too many carrot-dogs she'll get "a wicked bad tummy ache."

The story's not above an occasional Fandom Shout-Out. Lyra tells Bon Bon that if she eats too many carrot-dogs she'll get "a wicked bad tummy ache."

Mentor/Like a Daughter to Me: Railroad Baron and engineering pioneer Cornelius Vanderbull is like this to Gadget, his inventive young protégée. Though he's tough and sometimes annoyed by her exuberance, it's obvious that he cares for her and thinks highly of her.
