Digital 'Ghosts' To Guide Students On Campus
Hambone.dk writes "The students at Copenhagen's new IT University will soon be guided by invisible, but talkative digital agents, known as ghosts or Disembodied Location-specific Conversational Agents. The ghosts are to compete amongst themselves for privileges such as better vocabulary or the ability to clone themselves. Ignored ghosts can die out completely. This project is a lot more serious than it sounds at face value - several papers have been published already."
will the ghosts specifically tell perspective women students that they are victims of a male dominated society?
First, the human frogger on "Seinfeld". Now, they are turning college campuses into Pac-Man? "Inky, Blinky, and Clyde: coming to a college near you!"
Don't blame Durga. I voted for Centauri.
When they can do this, then I'll welcome our talking signpost overlords ;-)
I didn't think the house band in Hell would play this badly.
It's a CONSPIRACY!! If Osama is captured before November, won't it be coincidental that Osama AND Saddam were both captured during Bush's term?
It all makes sense now.. why is Pakistan and Iran now willing to help us find Bin Laden?
I'm sorry Mr. Kerry, but you're wasting your time and money and falling into a very deadly and foolish trap which may possibly kill your political career
Oh well, I could care less what happens.. every politician is a crook!
Just think of all of the crap being fed students disguised as actual viable college courses:
1. Pornography
2. Comic books
3. History of television
Anybody know what this guys smoking?
