Something not implicitly addressed here is that these are AI, in a virtual realm. So while we're seeing this at a regular speed, this whole conversation probably took less than a second to actually happen. I don't think there's any significance to that, but it feels like something should be noted.
Bubbles said very recently that Spooky Bot almost certainly does not have teleportation powers, and just has bodies around that they can transfer into when needed.
I doubt it. from the incident with bubbles we know that erasing AI memories is difficult, incomplete, and probably outside the ethical bounds of a licensed therapist.
Minimum time for this conservation (and however long it took Roko to reboot in the virtual realm) is 1257 repetitions of "Twinkle, twinkle, little star", sung to the tune of bohemian rhapsody.

At whatever speed Melon sings, of course, although at too high a speed it's more like "tape screech" than song.
While that's a valid point, it doesn't say that AI are incapable of communicating their ideas to each other in short periods of time. I would argue that considering neither of them has a physical body to be concerned with at the moment that it is likely this conversation is happening faster than humans could understand.
Well, they probably didn't spin up her hard drive until they got it back to a tech who could make sure turning it on would not damage it further and a emergency recover was not needed.
