Edit: Thanks for the gold, Reddit! I am, in fact, not a bot. However, I hope that this comment allows you (the community) to think about the role of bots as information-gatherers on Reddit. Also, take a look at the great work that r/tabled is doing for AMAs.

yaaaaayPancakes	So, when's Portal 3 coming out?	They never tell me anything, but at this point I don't believe there will ever be a Portal 3. But I'd be glad if there was.
Smashman2004	Your voice is also in Dota 2! I love the Death Prophet voice so much! You make a convincing dead French lady. :)	I love Death Prophet as well. I'm glad you think I sound French!
SuperDewgong	What is your favorite video game?	what a question. It's Portal!!!
rondny101	I've always wanted to be a voice actor! Where is the best place to start as me being only a freshman in high school?	Take an acting class. Voice actors are ACTORS. Learn how to act!
TheGentlecolt	What is VALVEs recording studio like?	Valve always uses Pure Audio on 1st Avenue in Seattle. Valve's offices are across Lake Washington in Bellevue WA. But they record the voice work here in town.
Damian0358	Which character did you like voicing more, GLaDOS or Helen, the Administrator?	I never knew her first name was Helen. I always think of her as the Skinny Old Bitch. I like GLaDOS and Helen the SOB.
count_cheska	why am i still alive	You are still alive because the world need you! Del Toro is a big Portal fan and he asked Valve and Gabe Newell if he could use the GLaDOS voice for P.Rim. and I'm glad they said YES! Mountains of Madness means nothing to me, sorry.
Rob_Saget	How does it feel knowing you voiced one of the most badass villains in gaming history? How did you land the role of GLaDOS? Would you be interested in coming on my podcast and discussing video games along with entertainment culture and the profession of voice acting?	I love being a villian. Especially being compared to HAL in 2001. My husband says I am perfect for GLaDOS, because I am naturally passive-agressive. I did an audition in our home studio and sent an MP3 file to my agent. Valve wanted someone to sound as much as possible like the computer generated voice that they used in creation of the game play. Sure, I'll come on your podcast. Please contact Chris Pope at Chris@socialstarsweb.com
zengosm	Did you ever crack up while recording any of the lines from Portal?	All the time, but they paid me by the hour so I tried to be professional and not waste Valve's time, but sometimes even I have a sense of humor.
ken27238	After I finished playing Portal I played the version with developer commentary and in it they described the process of making your voice into GLaDOS. What was your reaction the first time you heard your voice transformed into GLaDOS’s voice?	I did not think it sounded like me. I sound a lot more southern usually than GLaDOS does.
MisterHeadcrab	what was it like voicing the Overwatch in Half Life 2?	Oddly enough, Valve wanted overwatch to sound sort of Scottish. But mainly just disinterested. I really did not understand anything about the game play in HL2 until many years after I did the voice work. It was my husband, the Sniper, who finally explained it to me and I watch him play the game.
Cheesydude	What was the most enjoyable aspect of working at Valve?	Wonderful creative people who love what they do and it makes the work so satisfying to work with others who love to create.
Razzlefrazzleyo	What's it like to deliver such deadpan malicious dialogue? Have you ever been taken aback by the lines you were given? Do you and other voice actors ever have meet ups to trade war stories and if so what is the best one you have or have heard?	I love being snarky for money. Only once during Portal 2 did I complain about a specific line. I recorded it but it did not end up in the game. And no, I wil; not tell you what it was. Many of my friend and my husband do voice work. Yes, we share stories. I just did a show with Jen Taylor, the voice of Cortana. She is a great actor and a lovely person. We had a wonderful working relationship.
lieutfaber	Is the Fairy Godmother along the lines of the snarky, sarcastic GLaDOS, or is she more caring and innocent?	She is NOT innocent. I think she is always polite, but many times her politesse hides her rapier wit!
Blissfull	Do you have a favorite aria or opera in general to perform? Any sort of role you prefer (though in general, and specially in Italian, there are few important femenine roles other than victim of fate and people).	my favorite Opera is The Marriage of Figaro by Mozart. I have sung two roles in this opera. Susanna, a very smart maid, and Marcellina, a woman of my senior years who is in love with her own son, and does not know that he is her long lost son. Talk about a soap opera! I also love the operas of Puccini. Where, yes, many of the Ladies are sick or doomed.
MixTapesAreGood	How did you get into voice acting? Where/what were your first gigs?	I started out just preparing for stage work. Which is the best way to start for all voice actors. But it was my husband who convinced me to get a voice demo in 2002. My first gig was for the Democracy Project in North Africa. To encourage charitable giving to help women become involved in government.
oneburntwitch	What was your reaction when your found out GLaDOS was Caroline?	I thought it was a very interesting story line and a creative solution. It answered the great question of "Where did GLaDOS come from?"
ignis101509	Do you like Still Alive or Want You Gone more?	I think they're both perfectly apt for each game and I absolutely loved singing both of them.
GaiusOctavian8	Apparently you're now typecast as a robot. Did you suspect when working on Portal that that would be a role you would become well-known for (at least in some circles)? And have you done any more work with Valve for secret future projects?	I did not realize that doing the voice of GLaDOS would turn into so much work, but I'm GLaD it did.
WaterFaerieNaomi	What was it like working with the other voice actors? Like J K Simmons and Stephen Merchant. Did you guys ever hang out outside the studios?	We never actually got into the studio with each other. I heard Cave's and Wheatley's lines as I recorded my own, but it was more efficient for Valve to record them separately.
ReanimatedX	How did you go about to become an opera singer? What was your childhood like growing up in Tennessee? Did you wear overalls?	When I was a little girl, I usually wore dresses because we couldn't wear pants going to school. I always knew that I wanted to be a singer. I thought I would do Broadway type shows, but when I went to NCSA, the librarian told me to listen to opera and I fell in love with opera in high school. So my career became focused on opera, but in the years since, I have done all kinds of performing and I still sing opera.
orangetj	how did you feel when they recorded you telling chell there will be cake? did you know that you were lying...	Not at first ;)
ReanimatedX	Did you and and Mr Lowrie meet while working for Valve or were you married already when you started working on Valve games? Oh oh oh, and what exactly got you to work with Valve?	I met John in Europe when we were both doing a production of "Show Boat" in the early '80s.
Hsimpson818	Who is your favorite Simpsons' character?	I like Marge, of course.
dmann_1982	How was doing Poker Night 2? What was the funniest thing you had to say during the recording?	I was in the studio for five straight hours and much of what I recorded was just gameplay for poker, which I don't understand. So it was ALL very funny. I really think the writers for Poker Night did a wonderful job of capturing GLaDOS.
deandean1998	What was your favorite line as GLaDOS?	"Killing you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive."
IAmTheWeregoose	What would be your dream voice-acting role?	I want to be the Fairy Godmother in Wish It Inc.! I'm 60, I SHOULD play the Fairy Godmother. I was so taken with the project. It's clever, fun, and funny.
PeytonIAm	I just wanted to say thank you for helping bring to life one of the most memorable villain-turned-heros of my generation. Playing Portal really helped bring me out of a tough spot in my life, specifically the character of GLaDOS. Her humor and wit made me laugh through the toughest times, and really motivated me to change things in my own life. Thank you thank you thank you, and I wish you all the luck in your future career endeavors!	Thank you so much for your kind comments. We all have difficult times in our lives and I am so glad that Portal helped you through a difficult time. Trust me, life gets better. Best of luck and love to you.
Cyberfire	Have you ever found yourself saying one of your characters lines in everyday life?	Of course. I'm always giving my husband good advice.
BanjoKazoople	how close are you with gabe? is he as cool in real life as he seems?	I have never met Gabe Newell, but I would love to have the opportunity. He's gotten me a lot of work with Guillermo del Toro, so I thank him heartily.
jdfletch	Do you ever imagine yourself voicing actual A.I. in the future?	I want AT&T to contact me to do Siri. I think GLaDOS would be perfect for everyone's smartphone.
Rainbowjo	I Remember seeing a video of you raising support Gaymercon, are you going to be attending?	Yes! John and I will be in San Francisco the first week of August for Gaymer X.
outlander22	What is your most exciting/ interesting experience in being a voice actor for video games and now a movie?	My NEXT job is always the most exciting. I can't wait to make Wish It Inc.
manustillflops	In what ways, if any, did your involvement with the Portal series shape or change your opinions regarding video games as an artistic medium?	Video games are taking over the world. I am very GLaD to be an actor for this emerging art form.
poobahlette	I was curious if you and Stephen Merchant had any input into the script / character development for Portal 2?	I do not ad lib. Stephen Merchant is a writer and he ad libs all of the time. And much of what he ad libbed is in Portal 2.
ACurlyCube	How were you approached to do the voice of GLaDOS and had you had any interaction with videogames beforehand?	I did the voice work on Half-Life 2 and Team Fortress 2 first. They were my first games.
NoahsArcade84	Would you consider this AMA a triumph?	I'm making a note here: Huge Success.

Obama a caps fan? not my president

such a cutestory. I chareth this show

Edit: Not sure whether I should express my thanks to u/palefacedpolack for the Reddit Gold due to the trivial nature of it all. I'll just continue to be indifferent about it

this is the first table I've ever made. Haha I'm doing my best to keep up with all the responses

How much of Arrested development is ad-libbed? Were there any scenes in particular where the cast had real trouble with breaking character?
