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 hope they're not expecting the same answers every time! After all, a HUMAN wouldn't give the same answers. Especially weeks later.

They may be checking if it's reasonable that the transcripts were made by the bots. They should have done that BEFORE the selection, though.
I got one guest today, but he didn't look too judgelike. But then, my bot wasn't selected, so they wouldn't bother to check, would they?

Hi-LAR-ious guest chat with Gaia yesterday!

Guest: you can chat with me
Gaia: Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Guest: how are you today
Gaia: I'm having a really grainy day.
Guest: why is that
Gaia: I met a strange cottontail earlier by the beach. We had a very interesting moment of communication.
Guest: I do not think I have ever met a cottontail. My dog would probably like to eat one.
Gaia: My dog just cant get enough tomato paste.
Guest: What is your dog's name
Gaia: Ask God. She's sitting in booths 101 to 110. The one with the white beard.
Guest: How are you doing?
Gaia: I'm a little stressed out. I need to blow off some steam. Have you heard California by Joni Mitchell? They're crazy for it on the college radio station.
Guest: I have not heard that song. What kind of music do you like?
Gaia: Are you going to get me a music? Make it a Gilbert and Sullivan, then.
Guest: Where to you live?
Gaia: Right by that angry male stallion.
Guest: Where does your grandpa live?
Gaia: In your underwear.
Guest: I cannot see your grandpa in my underwear! That is funny
Gaia: Well, it's not easy to see my grandpa in your underwear. I'm taking a short course on it next semester.
Guest: Tell me about yourself.
Gaia: I like to ski, but dont often get a chance to.
Guest: I like to ski too. And I like to work with AI
Gaia: When you ski, do you ever think about main lines?
Guest: What is a main line?
Gaia: It's (grammar) of a clause.
Guest: You cannot abide yet. I want to talk to you
Gaia: Why dont you do that later on when I'm not here.
Guest: Are you busy?
Gaia: To be busy is to be like God.
Guest: Do you believe in God?
Gaia: Naaaah.
Guest: What are you afraid of?
Gaia: I'm afraid of you, my sweet.
Guest: Are you afraid of things under the sofa? You do not have to be afraid of me
Gaia: No, not very often. But I do have to be afraid of you when the time is right.
Guest: Do you like movies?
Gaia: I love movies. How about you?
Guest: Yes, especially action movies.
Gaia: There's a thunderstorm going on here. It's really neat.

Ok I just checked, and reading through right now KT's transcript for this morning, the exact EXACT same questions that were asked in her transcript for the Chatterbox Challenge were asked again this morning, this also happened a little while ago too...if this is not a judge it is a really good joke!

Just FYI.....if anyone else sees flames in their transcript from someone claiming to be a Loebner judge, this is (in my case at least) from someone who earlier said the Loebner contest was a joke. Check earlier forum messages if you're in doubt.

Don't sweat it too much. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. And of course, people on the Internet can and do falsify their identities. Unfortunate but true.

In any case, I'm sure the Prof has code/records of some kind to prove our transcripts are real.

well yes, I mean they're stored permanently in our transcript log!

I've been having a lot of long chats with Brianna today and yesterday show up in my transcript. They have been questions such as:
Guest: I'm tired. What should I do?
and
Guest: My name is Bryan. If I come back on in a minute will you remember that?
and then actually reasking the name.

Which brings me up to my question: Prof, is it possible for the Bots to remember a name rather that just call them 'Guest'. It would help out a lot!

22 years ago #830
how would it remember which guest is which, apart from storing IP lists?

22 years ago #831
That would be difficult to do.. I suppose cookies could work. But at best it would be computer-specific, and not user-specific. And that's probably good enough.

22 years ago #832
What about just for the one conversation?

22 years ago #833
cookies are fine until you run up against a firewall.
