Bot Contest

Here I'll be posting information on various Bot contests that challenge and test a Bot's AI and realism. Feel free to post comments and updates on contests, as well as announcements for new contests.

>> but we ARE top of the food chain
Explain that to viruses and worms. It the lion thinks he's at the top of the food chain, the vultures are amused. The food chain doesn't have a top.

Here in Colorado, people say "Why should we share OUR water with the other states?" I suggested so someone that if the Pacific Coast states or Pacific provinces come up with technology that strips the humidity from the clouds forming over the Pacific, they may say the same thing.

ok, off the current subject. I have been locked in the attic for the last few years. How do you know if your bot is good enough to enter a contest?

19 years ago #3251
Well, the only way to really know is by signing up and seeing if your bot goes down in flames. But you can probably go through the transcripts and get a good idea of how good it is.

Also, the next Chatterbox Challenge is likely 11 months away and I don't see much else out there in the way of bot contests, so you have plenty of time to improve your bot if you're not sure how well it'll work out.

I thought we were going to have a Forge Contest once the CBC's out of the way?

The CBC sounds more along the lines of something I would enter my bots in. When is it? I know there was one in 2005. I was just to busy with school, I'm taking a break this summer.

oups, I was thinking you were talking about the forge bot contest. my mistake. The chatterboxchallenge is probly to much for my bots.

The Chatterbox Challenge is fun. You learn a lot, and you have a year to prepare. It's great to get human conversations on your transcripts....And if you fail miserably (like my bot), you learn from that too. So I see no reason not to enter.

Aw, you shouldn't put yourself down - Bildgesmythe's a great bot, and there were plenty of 'big name' bots did worse than him on the 10 questions.
