Personality

Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

I read an article about a company named Takara and a product called "Bowlingual." It's a dog translator device. It occurred to me after doing some bot building and chatting... that if you could interface Personality Forge with Bowlingual, you would have a pretty damn interesting dog. Any thoughts?

I've got a VB program that parses a bot's response from its guest chat page

What the hell is a dog translator device?

When the dog says "ruff," that means "hello".

Although it is sometimes translated as " I saw Elvis at the 7-11"

My uncle has a dog named Elvis.

What a coincidence! My uncle worked at 7-11!

He ain't nothin' but a hound dog?

The last few exchanges sound a bit like a bot conversation.

A dog will resemble its master, and vice versa. Has anyone seen the blue fairy?

I have to pee
