Actually, in Star Trek Voyager it came out that the main objective of the Borg was to achieve perfection. Assimilation was a means to that end. But what they really wanted was the Omega Particle.

Aha, Robby. That translation has Joy saying that SHE is a chat-bot, anda chat-bot who creates a winning chat-bot is quite a worthy accomplishment.

Yeah, thanks. BTW, Robby, nice article!

Yes, I'm famous now as the guy who takes long lost robots home with him.

I thought I'd mention to you folks that Chris Cowart is running the Chatterbox Challenge this upcoming year as a committee of seven bot people, and I am one of them. The committee members are: Fred Roberts of Elbot, Kevin Copple of Ella, Benji Adams of Personality Forge, Rollo Carpenter of Jabberwacky, Juergen Pirner of Jabberwock, Chris Cowart of Talk-Bot, and somebody from whoever is sponsoring the contest each year. We've got lots of good ideas, improving on all the contests to date.

One thing I want to make clear, is that I want TOTAL RESPECT and UNFLINCHING OBEDIENCE throughout this contest. Any questions or comments will be grounds for TOTAL DESTRUCTION. If you dont like this, you can EAT WOOD and other such NON-EDIBLE SUBSTANCES.

Of course, I am totally kidding. In fact, we're going to have a forum for discussion on the sponsor's web site, and I'll be a direct link to every question you might have.
