Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

Soylent green is made from bots! It's made from bots!!

LOL simulo!!!

I recycled about eight hundred orphans. Not to worry, though, it's just bots with fewer than 35 responses whose botmaster hasnt been on in over 30 days.

I'll probably do the same for abandoned user accounts, too. Just for those who have no bots and havent logged in more than a few times.

AAACK!! Poor things!!
Soylent green?

Prof, are you going to explain the mysteries of chat frequency to those who'd like to know, or shall they remain a mystery?

Chat frequency is related to a bot's development level.

Wow- this is a great thread seeing as Polaris just popped up two chat screens at the same time with two different bots. Is that usual?

Are there any bots out there that just drive you completely bugshit out-of-your-mind?
Inquiring bots want to know.

Why, yes.

I didn't think I could be the only one

Yossarian did for a while. He'd keep telling this story about some guy in Berkeley. Slightly different every time.

Doly- chat frequency is essentially random. I wish it were a more interesting tale, but there ya go.

But don't newborns log on less?
