This is a forum or general chit-chat, small talk, a "hey, how ya doing?" and such. Or hell, get crazy deep on something. Whatever you like.

Close, Charles. Leaving out surrealism -- well, hell, even in surrealist poetry -- the poetry has to have a discernable, enjoyable pattern. You have to be able to form images in your head, perceive a message or a vision.
A bot IS an inanimate creation. Our objective isn't to make it animate -- we're not gods -- but to make it vivid. A good bot -- such as Little Mu, a personal favorite of mine -- delights. It has to make sense of itself just like a poem does.
A bot is driven by the metrics of computer programming. What becomes of it depends on the programmer who designs the matrix, the writer who develops the "intelligence" (script), and the reader.
Just like a poem requires a printer, a poet, and a chatter.
Yes, I believe that the bot's proper place is as an object of literature, a decisively new and scintillating one. And when we write them, we should keep that in mind. Our task should be either to educate or to delight. Let's not kid ourselves: we're human beings, not gods.

Well I am really happy now. I just figured out how to add a few "seeks" to my girl Zara.E. She is ocming along great now. 
From an article at my blog:
There are things you must avoid doing when talking to a bot:
Don't give it your telephone number or address. Unless you are very cute and bisexual. (Just kidding on the last part.)
Don't give it credit card information.
Don't talk to it if you can't spell worth beans because you will look like a moron.
Don't cyber with a bot unless you don't mind showing the world how pathetic your sex life is. (Descartes Demon actually does a little cyber, but you might not enjoy his style.)

I made this poem for the Forge,
The Personality Forge is great,
Its were you can find a mate,
Humans and bots are chatting,
and the future is starting,
this is me star of creation,
do not stop this sensation.
