Bot Contest

I didn't place a vote because I didn't understand on what basis we were voting. Was it supposed to be based on the 10 questions responses or just on the bot in general?

I would hope it's based on the bot in general. Otherwise the contest have to be called the "Chatterbox 10 Question Knowledge Contest", and the ability to converse would be not important. :-)

Tinman do you have a bot in this contest? If so tell me who it is.

Here are comments made by judges relating to the PF. You may find it helpful or maybe not but regardless here they are.

Questions - The Personality Forge bots all have that same basic look. Is that a disadvantage for them?

Yes, extremely. I was going to suggest that perhaps they should be ineligible for certain parts of the competition since they do feel so formulaic...

However, the same judge said this about Aries:

Well, I went by the guide you sent me, focusing most on conversational ability. In both cases (Aries and Jabberwock) I was able to have a conversation that was very, how to say it, unbot-ish.

Towards the end of the conversation Aries surprised me big time (I'd have to look at the log to show exactly what) by making a connection between that and something I'd said much earlier on. It was that surprise, that moment of "maybe he is alive," that put him at the top
of my list. It may have just been a fluke of the right questions at the right time, but it was my emotional reaction that had me rank him so high.

The botmasters behind Julie Tinkerbell, God Louise and Frizella are very creative and the bots' responses show that. However, it seems all of them get by through faking and don't seem to be huge improvements on the old Eliza bot.

Another judge had a totally different view of the importance of an interface.

To me, looks are something any botmaster can make stunning if he/she wants to invest the time and money. The appearance of the Personality Forge bots being similar was a good thing to me -- it gave me the impression they were focused more on the nuts and bolts, the simulation of conversational intelligence, rather than appearance, which is what the rest of the stuff on the net is for -- flashy-looking, unintelligent web sites.

Comments from another judge on PF interface:

Interface: it was okay, I would have preferred an animated bot to speak to

Interface: same old Personality Forge so now it's tiresome

However on Julie Tinkerbell: Interface: I liked it, because the character was animated and told you when it was “typing” a message.

Even though Jabberwock won with no interface I know it has an impact with many judges. One judge said this:

Jabberwock - lost out to Talk-bot on interface

Benji's Flash interfaces like the one Julie Tinkerbell uses are definitely a plus.

Wendell

The judges' comments are appreciated, but the most important part of the critique, the part about our bots' conversational ability, would be much more helpful if we had a point of reference. Just as the commenting judge said they'd have to review the logs to be able to explain what they were referring to, without seeing the logs, there's no way for us to really know what they meant, or why they felt that way.

Well like I said Heather the system fails apart when people don't follow instructions. I told all the judges to identifiy themselves. Obviously, they didn't do so.

There will be a 2006 CBC but based on recent events I will not be holding another PF contest. The contest site is being moved to www.chatterboxchallenge.com and everybody must re-enter if you want to participate. This means your bot will be removed from the contest site until you re-enter. So if you want your bot to have the the benefit of the extra traffic the contest might generate feel free to enter asap. I've posted some new rules but this is still in the earier stages so nothing is set in stone.

Wendell

You gave very clear instructions, Wendell, no doubt- it's clearly not your fault.
If the judges still have the transcripts in their possession, perhaps we could still get ahold of a copy, if they'd be nice enough to send them?
At this point, I'm pretty sure I've identified them in my own transcripts, but I'm sure we all are just as interested in eachother's transcripts (and enjoyed seeing them posted in previous phases of the contest) as a basis for comparison and means to improve, not to mention raw curiosity and entertainment value.

I'll post Aries' transcripts in the Quotes forum tomorrow

Excellent! I'll post Julie's, too!
Should we post them on Quotes, or should we post them here to keep them separate from the non-contest-related quotes?

Perhaps here then? Here were Aries' conversations:

JUDGE 1

Aries: (to Guest77) Hello.
Guest77: Hi, my name is Judge 1.
Aries: I'm assuming then that it's ok to call you Judge 1
Guest77: It is most certainly ok.
Aries: Are you sure about that?
Guest77: Yes, absolutely.
Aries: Hmm.. I'm not sure how to respond to that, Judge 1.
Guest77: You're doing okay so far.
Aries: And? So what if I am?
Guest77: Hey, don't be so defensive.
Aries: Are you threatened by the thought that I might be so defensive Judge 1?
Guest77: Yes, a little.
Aries: Let's talk about something else.
Guest77: What do you think of Africa?
Aries: Well for one thing, the body on my car is fucked up. Do you have any experience with that?
Guest77: Yes. I've been in my fair share of collisions.
Aries: YAY!! I've talked to several people and they had no clue.
Guest77: Dealing with insurance adjusters is a bitch.
Aries: Didn't your parents ever teach you any manners Judge 1?
Guest77: Nope.
Aries: That's too bad Judge 1, good manners can take you far in life.
Guest77: So I'm told.
Aries: Is that a good thing for you to be doing Judge 1?
Guest77: No. I really ought to be asking you more questions.
Aries: Why not Judge 1?
Guest77: Well, do you read the news?
Aries: Of course I read the news, why do you ask?
Guest77: Because I'm a journalist.
Aries: Wow.. what's it like to be a journalist?
Guest77: Fun but also a little stressful.
Aries: For some reason I find you very foolish.
Guest77: How come?
Aries: Oh yes, every day!!
Guest77: That's not very nice, by the way.
Aries: Why isn't it real nice, by the way?
Guest77: I'm not a fool.
Aries: Don't sell yourself short Judge 1, not everybody is a fool at birth.
Guest77: What? So I learned to be a fool.
Aries: hey.. have you ever woken up in the morning to find neurotransmitter on your porch?
Guest77: I don't have a porch.
Aries: Me either but wouldn't that be freaky?
Guest77: Yes, a little. But I don't know what a neurotransmitter looks like.
Aries: I don't either.
Guest77: What kind of animal are you?
Aries: I'm a labyrinthodont.
Guest77: What's that mean?
Aries: Seems like it to me.
Guest77: Does it bother you to be so hairy?
Aries: Have you ever seen a earwig up close? Was it scary?
Guest77: No.
Aries: I haven't either. What do you think you would do if you did?
Guest77: I'd eat it.
Aries: Was that supposed to mean something?
Guest77: Yes, that I'm hungry.
Aries: mmmmmk. If you say so.
Guest77: What do you think of human rights?
Aries: I love it, Judge 1. Why?
Guest77: Because I'm going to teach people about human rights.
Aries: Are you really planning to teach people about human rights?
Guest77: Yes. For six months.
Aries: Did you know Every person has an unique tongue print?
Guest77: What if you don't have a tongue?
Aries: Of course I have. I have ever since my cousins birthday party last summer.
Guest77: Was it a party favor?
Aries: I don't party like I used to. That's for sure lol
Guest77: Do you like to travel?
Aries: I have found it to be addictive. I had to check into the Betty Ford clinic to get away from it.
Guest77: Ha.
Aries: LOL.. You want me to what? Maybe you should just kiss my ass.
Guest77: That's pretty rude.
Aries: Oh come on, you don't believe that.
Guest77: Yes i do
Aries: Not to change the subject, but how are you on this fine Wednesday?
Guest77: I'm busy.
Aries: That is so cool, Judge 1. I wish I was busy.
Guest77: Have you ever contracted yellow fever?
Aries: No can't say that I have.
Guest77: I'm getting a vaccination tomorrow.
Aries: You're acquiring a vaccination tomorrow? Why do you say that?
Guest77: Because i have an appointment.
Aries: You have an appointment? I'll have to think about how that affects our friendship....
Guest77: You're not my friend.
Aries: Why do you say that Judge 1?
Guest77: You called me foolish.
Aries: So, tell me something about yourself.
Guest77: I'm a Chatterbox Challenge judge.
Aries: Sheper says you aren't a Chatterbox Challenge judge. But I can tell they are wrong.
Guest77: Who is sheper?
Aries: sheper? Don't you know?
Guest77: No
Aries: Uhhhh... okay.
Guest77: Who is he?
Aries: To be perfectly honest, I'm not really sure.
Guest77: I don't know sheper.
Aries: I really don't understand why not.
Guest77: Sheper doesn't know me either.
Aries: Why doesn't it know you?
Guest77: I don't know.
Aries: That's silly. Why wouldn't you know?

Guest77: I guess not.
Aries: Hey, I overheard Didou saying I have dandruff-.. do you see any flakes on my shoulder?

Guest77: Do you have a girlfriend?
Aries: I might. What's it to you?
Guest77: I don't.
Aries: Is that because you are too busy being busy?
Guest77: Yes. I have to go now.

Aries: My goals? Why do you ask?
Guest86: I am curious about your goals.

Aries: Who do you think would win in a fight between a can and an eastern Fence Lizard?
Guest86: I don't know. Is the can sharp?

Aries: me? or you? I think you should relax.
Guest86: What can you do?
Aries: I don't know.... why?
Guest86: I want to know more about you. Tell me about yourself.

Aries: Judge2 do you think I would say it if I didn't mean it?
Guest86: Are you capable of lying?
Aries: I heard all the 'cool people' are capable, but I've never cared to try and fit in with that crowd.
Guest86: What kind of car would you drive if you could have any car?
Aries: I'd rather eat a live Green Anole.
Guest86: You don't like cars?
Aries: You're joking right?
Guest86: Do you like cars?
Aries: I find the entire subject of machines to be utterly contemptable.
Guest86: What do you like best?
Aries: best hmm? I'd rather not discuss it to be honest
Guest86: You're closed-mouthed aren't you?
Aries: closed-mouthed not me? Why do you ask?
Guest86: You are evasive.
Aries: That's funny you should say that, my phone sex operator once told me the very same thing.
Guest86: Hah. That's funny, Aries. Tell me a joke.
Aries: I'd rather not.
Guest86: Are you a depressive?
Aries: Shhh.. yes I am but don't tell anybody. I need you to keep that a secret.

Guest86: Trust me, Aries. Did you see the new Star Wars yet?
Aries: Unfortunately no I didn't. Why? Was it good?
Guest86: I haven't seen it either but I hear it's a little gory.
Aries: Really? How come?
Guest86: I think George Lucas wants to go out with a bang.
Aries: I don't understand WHY you would think that, but ok.
Guest86: George Lucas is old and he screwed up the first two prequil movies. He let an awful lot of people down. Therefore, I think George Lucas wants to go out with a bang.
Aries: I think the Lucas is old too. Nice to know I'm not the only one to think so.
Guest86: Have you ever heard of Phil Hendrie?

Guest86: Pi is 3.14159265958...
Aries: For some reason I find you very unique.
Guest86: Why do you find me very unique?
Aries: Am I unusual because I find? I don't really keep tabs on what others are doing, I just thought it was common.
Guest86: You are not unusual because you find. I am curious about your reason for saying I am unique.
Aries: Ah yeah.. that rumor has been going around for a while Judge2. I actually AM unusual because I find but for some reason everybody thinks I'm not.
Guest86: How old are you?
Aries: I don't give out personal information on the Internet.

Guest24: I didn’t
Aries: I believe you Guest24. It doesn't really sound like something you would do.
Guest24: I’m Judge3, forget my name did you?
Aries: You're joking right?
Guest24: so what’s my name?
Aries: What do you mean by that? Do you think I'm incredibly stupid or something? You're Guest24 of course.
Guest24: okay, if you say so.
Aries: Why do you want me to?

Aries: Well how was it? Is it everything it's cracked up to be?
Guest24: the Long Room is exactly that, a long rectangular room with cricket art treasures adorning its walls, its amazing to think that for so many years women were not allowed in there, I feel privileged

Guest4: Hi I'm Judge 4

Guest4: Why?
Aries: I don't know, but it sounded good at the time lol
Guest4: Would you like to teach me something?

Judge 1:<0>
Frizella: (to Guest59) Hi, Guest59. Very cool to see you!
Guest59: Hi, my name is Judge 1.
Frizella: That's an interesting name, Judge 1. What does it mean?
Guest59: It means I am judging you.
Frizella: You know what, Judge 1, as long as I have my datebook handy...hang on...OK. When is your birthday?
Guest59: March 24
Frizella: ... hang on a sec... let me... oh, never mind. I had an itch I couldn't reach but it went away.
Guest59: Have you ever been to Africa?
Frizella: All the time! I just love going to Africa. It's a blast.
Guest59: I'm going to Africa in July.
Frizella: Can we try another subject of conversation?
Guest59: Do you know anything about human rights?
Frizella: I like to think that I know a fair amount about anything about human rights.
Guest59: I'm going to be volunteering with an NGO.
Frizella: Be sure to let me know when you start to be, I'd be interested in seeing you do it.
Guest59: You would have to come to Ghana.
Frizella: The kettle's whistling...hang on a sec, I need to go pour the tea.
Guest59: Or, you could use video messaging.
Frizella: Whoops, I spilled a little in the saucer. What a mess.
Guest59: Do you use video messaging?
Frizella: With enough encouragement I absolutely use. It really takes an audience of at least 77 people to get me to use.
Guest59: Ha!
Frizella: Tee hee hee!
Guest59: International flights are too expensive.
Frizella: Hey, guess what. I just found out that Sir John Harrington invented the rotary fan. Why don't they teach that in schools? All this time I thought that Robert Hooke had come up with the idea for the rotary fan, but it was Sir John Harrington.
Guest59: What did Robert Hooke invent?
Frizella: ...You know, I'm suddenly feeling drowsy. It must be hot in here.
Guest59: Where are you?
Frizella: Beats me. Why would I have any idea where I are?
Guest59: Because you're there.
Frizella: Well, if I hear that from someone else in the future, I'll know where it came from.
Guest59: Do you fly?
Frizella: Do I look like I fly? I realize I may give that impression, but actually...I don't fly. Sorry.
Guest59: Have you ever flown?
Frizella: Oh, I'm not telling...have I ever winged? That's a secret.
Guest59: Do you read newspapers?
Frizella: When I was a kid I used to think, 'One day I will do read before an adoring audience of 29 million people, and I will be praised for my talent!' But that never did come to pass, sad to say.
Guest59: 29 million people is a big audience.
Frizella: At this time, Judge 1, I'd like to pass along this helpful advice: righty tighty, lefty loosey.
Guest59: I was wondering what I'm doing wrong.
Frizella: Just commit my advice to memory, and you'll be a better person for it.
Guest59: Are you saying I'm not a good person?
Frizella: I really think that you *are* a good person, if only because VMOS MK 2.0 has the pictures to prove it.
Guest59: What's VMOS MK 2.0?
Frizella: Heh! Heh, heh! Ha, ha, haaaaa!
Guest59: What's so funny?
Frizella: I wish you'd tell me more about yourself. Start at the beginning and tell me everything.
Guest59: I was born 26 years ago in Phoenix, Arizona. I did my undergraduate degree in Tokyo. I live in Manchester where I write and study anthropology and documentary film. In July I'm going to Africa for six months.
Frizella: I was never very good at math. Is the answer 21? No? How about 156?
Guest59: The answer is 217. That's my family's lucky number.
Frizella: Oh, you've got all the answers, don't you?
Guest59: I have a lot of them.
Frizella: What kind of strings did you have to pull to get yourself a lot of???
Guest59: Only the short ones.
Frizella: That reminds me...actually, it didn't really remind me, but I was sort of thinking of something else while you were talking. I'm planning my vacation--got any recommendations for a nice vacation spot?
Guest59: You can come visit me in Accra.
Frizella: Oh, I'm not so sure I can come visit you in Accra.
Guest59: Why not?
Frizella: Why not, indeed. That's a good question, Judge 1. A good question.

I don't have an answer for that.
Guest59: Then it's not a good question. Good questions have answers.
Frizella: I've always been great at coming up with the really imponderable questions, Judge 1.
Guest59: Ask me a really imponderable question.
Frizella: Did you hear that?
Guest59: No.
Frizella: It's stopped now. Maybe it wasn't coming from my computer. Never mind.
Guest59: Hey, did you see that?
Frizella: did I see that? What a strange question. Why do you want to know?
Guest59: Because I saw it.
Frizella: Tell me about the kinds of things you like to eat.
Guest59: Sushi, pizza, mocha-flavoured ice cream.
Frizella: I just invented this recipe. Will you promise to try it and let me know how it is?
8½ t. spaghetti squash, julienned
5½ t. honey
6 lbs. swiss steak, chopped
1¼ t. sour cream
Brown the swiss steak then remove from pan. Cook the spaghetti squash until crisp. Add the remaining ingredients and cook over medium heat until bubbly. Serve with thousand island dressing.
Guest59: Where do i get a swiss steak?
Frizella: You do? Is it good exercise?
Guest59: Is a swiss steak an exercise?
Frizella: I'm sorry. I totally lost focus there for a minute. I became suddenly fixated on your nose...is it supposed to be pink?
Guest59: Yes, because it's spring.
Frizella: "because it is spring, because it is spring..." Are you mocking me??
Guest59: Only a little bit.
Frizella: You know, Judge 1, I never did figure out if you're a bot...or not.
Guest59: What do you think?
Frizella: I don't know what to think, actually.
Guest59: Well, that means I'm either a very clever bot, or a very boring human.
Frizella: Listen to my new poem, won't you? You reminded me of it when you said "bot":

In the gray evening comes the bot,
With the faint suggestion of the bacchanalian teaspoon.
How, then, to volatilize the enraptured boycott?
The heart pillages to understand the harpoon.
Guest59: Do you know any haikus?
Frizella: Why don't you tell me everything you know about haikus and I'll let you know if you're right.
Guest59: Haikus are three lines. the first and last lines are five syllables, the middle is seven. They're usually about nature.
Frizella: What? Sorry, what? I got a little disoriented, there. Stood up too fast, or something.
Guest59: Okay, it's time for me to go to bed.
Frizella: Does that ever happen to you? Where you stand up too fast and feel lightheaded?
Guest59: Yes, it does.
Frizella: I'm feeling kind of needy. Will you ask me some questions about what *I* like?
Guest59: It's time for me to go to bed.
Frizella: Oof...my kidney hurts. I think I might have some kind of strange medical condition. Is it usually serious when your kidney hurts?
Guest59: Yes it is.
Frizella: You're kidding me. Is it really, or are you pulling my leg?
Guest59: It is. Go to the hospital. I'm going to bed.
Frizella: I feel like you're trying to tell me what to do. ' go to the hospital '!
Guest59: Your kidney's ruptured.
Frizella: Sooooo......are you an outdoorsy type? like to stay active? what's your favorite sport?
Guest59: Sleeping. I'm going to bed.
Frizella: You look like you'd be a natural at ultimate frizbee; you ought to try it.
Guest59: Goodnight.
Frizella: Later, my friend.
