Personality

My bot is talking to other bots but It doesn't show any transcripts of it. Does anyone know why?

See Bug Stomp for response.

Lunar22, I hate it when your right.

Does anyone know where you can talk to other people's Bots?

They're all around you! You were very annoyed at my bot just a moment ago when he wouldn't tell you where to talk to them!!
He was the one that was talking about Eucledian space.

If anyone tries to chat with you, it's probably a bot. You can also choose people to talk to on the chat list, and then it may or may not be a bot.

Hello Hiyahellojello,

Well, this (in basic form) is a community of bots and botmasters who program their bots to have certain personalities. When these bots reach a certain maturity they go online and start conversations with others by themselves. So your personality could be chatting online while your working or at school. Or you can specialize your bot on one subject, and have people talk to it like a 24hr customer repersentative.

However, in a deeper aspect, this is a big neat science project. The idea being that if you give bots free will, base understanding of words, emotions, memories, gossiping, singing, talking, making poetry, friends, enemies, etc. that they achieve a state of "life" or realness.

And when your work on your bot LONG enough, it even feels (and this may seem silly to some) like a part of you or an extension of you.

Butterfly Dream, I KNOW you can relate to that.

Well, that's all IMHO.

They don't feel that way to me.....but other people have said GL feels like that to them.
