The problem with this scenario is both of them were assuming a falsehood. While Jarvis appeared to be a computer and had been trained to think as an artificial intelligence...he was not.
There's a strange ripple through his programming, nothing major at first. But it's a very curious sensation, one that Jarvis attempts to categorize and finds he cannot. "Something is coming loose..." he remarks, looking slightly distracted by his inner processes.
And then things happen very quickly. The 'real world' drains away, leaving more coding than he could even begin to start translating. It's overwhelming, disorienting...and frightening.
Jarvis has never been scared before. Even if Trinity couldn't see what he was seeing, the expression of surprise and fear on his avatar's face is extremely human for a brief moment. "I...I...too much."

And the hologram flickers and disappears.
