ALICE Takes Medal At AI Competition

jeffy124 writes: "The Artificial Linguistic Internet Computer Entity (ALICE) has won the bronze and the top marks at the Loebner AI Challenge, a competition based on the Turing test. Silver and gold remain unawarded as silver requires convincing half the judges the AI program is a human, and the gold requires speech interaction rather than text. ALICE repeated as this year's bronze by scoring best among all the entries. She failed to convince half the judges she was human, so she has to stick to bronze. The event took place last Saturday at the London Science Museum."

    On the other hand, who cares about a bunch of dead businessmen? How is your statement any truer than before the WTC `event`? People have been starving to death for...well, since humans appeared. Frankly this is a more interesting story than `this just in - one person, repeat, one single person dies from Anthrax`.

    oooo - an automated corpse.
    I suppose you could work in some sort of tubing system into the real doll in order to heat it continually - otherwise they are cold silicone - on the site they recommend soaking them in a bath of warm water before engaging with them.
    unless you are into that necrophilia thing.
