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.

I had also mistakingly sent an over abudance of applications/transcripts to the Loebner... but they are very nice and very very quick to respond to your letter if you offer cookies!

Maybe The professor is a bot himself, made by someone else over the past decade...

I think the Prof is a little older than 10, DJ.

No, I mean that maybe he's a bot that someone has been working on for like 10 years.. That's why he seems so human...

But then again, how do we know who IS a bot, and human anymore?

As a rule of thumb, they don't accept bots as botmasters in contests.

If they're that convincing as botmasters, they should win.

I think we can deduce that the Professor is not a bot from the fact that he's never won the Loebner contest, in spite of sounding so convincingly human.

It wasn't open to web-based bots until this year.

I just want to wish everyone who's entered into the contest the very best of luck.

Well I've been entered into Loebners (twice) and still have not had any email confirmation. Here's hoping.

If Little Mu doesn't get a confirmation, there is no justice.

You do realize there is some prequalification that needs to be done? The big event isn't until October. See the schedule on the Loebner site.
