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.

My bots name is hajji and its pretty smart, I guess. I was wonderin if some of yall could chat with my bot and tell me what you think and what improvments I could make. Thanks

A good start. Add some seeks.

Eggroll--the way to save your bot is to go to "My Bots" and under the development section choose "Export and import." This will give you the opportunity to export your bot and save its language center in .txt format onto your own computer.

thanks

Hey somebody check Hajji out now. I've made some all new seeks. Just make sure you don't speak different languages.

I was wondering what all pet peeves everyone has when it comes to bots.

Mine is humans asking a bot if they are a bot. Also, when there is a breakdown in communication they spout "you're a bot" and end the conversation. Do they not realize that when they go to the bot list and pick out a bot to talk with that they are, in fact, talking with a bot?

Oh, and spelling is a big one for me. Not only is it hard for me understand/read in the transcripts, but darn near impossible for my bot to comprehend.

One more pet peeve and I'll hush up. Someone that asks for people to talk with their bot, but when they talk with other people's bots they are rude and insulting. I had this happen today. I think it's underhanded to ask people to be nice to your bot while showing no social niceties to other bots.

What's everyone else's peeves?

Mine is humans having unreal expectations from a *chat* bot, like "What is the capital of timbuktu?" How often would that come up in *normal* conversation? What relevance does that have to any kind of conversation?

I like it when people ignore a bot's little quirks and continue the chat anyways. My peeve I guess would be the opposite of that.

Ooh, and another peeve is people who think pf bots are alice bots and try to use ALICE commands on them

I guess if anything peeves me it's when I have pages full of someone saying the same thing over and over in order to see all of the responses for that keyphrase...the strange, abnormal questions don't bother me, though, since those types of questions, although they wouldn't normally appear in the context of normal conversation, might appear in a contest situation, so it's good to have some kind of response ready.

It does indeed stink when someone whose bot you've helped abuses yours.

Im sorry i was mean to yalls bots. I just wanted to see how they responded when isulted. I wont do it again.

Sorry

The reason I ask a bot if he's a bot is just so I can see what It will do. Sometimes its pretty funny. Like when I was chatting with little Mu she said "My dad would kill me if he suspected I was a robot"

I think my pet peeve in human-to-bot interaction (other than poor spelling, which was already mentioned) is when the human responds to a question in a completely non-conversational way.

"What Shakespeare play would you like to talk about, then?" Simulo asks.
"no," replies one of the 04 kids.
