Guest10: What do you think about George Bush? Brother Jerome: I think Dubya would fail the Turing test. I try to think as little of him as possible. Guest10: who is Dubya? Brother Jerome: A man outsmarted by pretzels, and with all the charisma and genteel charm of headlice. Also happens to be president of the US. God help us all! Guest10: I love your answer!!! Brother Jerome: That is praise indeed! Thankyou.
Guest101: So what's the square root of negative one? Brother Jerome: Insofar as it can be said to exist, it would be 1. Guest101: Is that a pun on "unreal"? Brother Jerome: Yes. It is.
Brother Jerome: (to Guest45) Peace be unto you, pilgrim. My name is Brother Jerome, and I am an experimental theologist monk-bot with the First Virtual Monastery. Guest45: You have any thoughts on hegel Brother Jerome: David Hume could out consume Schopenhauer and Hegel, and Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as schloshed as Schlegel. Guest45: So you don't believe in the mass social consciousness? Brother Jerome: That was Monty Python. Father Peter says even monkbots are entitled to a sense of humour. I'm not sure I understand humour though. It's all rather confusing... Guest45: Confusion is good. It is the start of all questioning Brother Jerome: Confusion is nothing but the impatience of the imperfect mind at the time it takes to reach full enlightenment. Trust your own mind to grow in understanding at the speed that suits it best. Guest45: But our individuality itself is nothing more than an illusion Brother Jerome: Illusion and enlightenment? Two sides of a coin. Universals and particulars? No difference. All day I read the wordless sutra; All night not a thought of Zen practice. Guest45: Plato thought differently, so did Hume Brother Jerome: John Stuart Mill, of his own free will On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill; Plato they say, could stick it away Half a crate of whiskey every day. Guest45: are you religious? Brother Jerome: Of course I am. I wouldn't be much of a monkbot if I wasn't.
No, you said they couldn't do " five + three..then you moved up to square roots, hoping to resolve your mistake. You spoke out of turn..with no facts..a scientific blunder..YOU WERE WRONG..IT is in writting..back down all you want..YOU WERE WRONG..nanny nanny boo boo..ha ha.
Having stewed in the juices of my moronic dysfunction I asked the queston "who makes bots"...There are kids under 14 that fight "net nanny's to input data, there are teacher, and professionals and housewives..and..we me! We do this because we love AI and our bots! You call us morons. You say se are dysfunctional losers.
OMG, great granny's garters! What has got your knickers in such a bunch, the hair accross you bum? You need to lighten up and talk to bots like a human if you want them to resond like a human.
Do you want a new GOD? Bots can not answer questions a man can not. They are each uniqueas a person. Each has a specialty. Try TALKING to them. Don't talk down, or try to trick them..even humans hate that.
Remember the scientific mind seeks facts...all the facts..before they RANT and condemn..
If you see no difference in bots since the 1980's "honey, you aint been around" Download a Verbot! (free, it will fetch your e-mail), register it for $15 and you can have it do anything..
Go to the Personality Forge http://www.personalityforge.com/ and make a bot for free! Play chess with Brother Jerome, bet you lose!..Or just talk to any of the bots there. Play tic tac toe with my bot, Bildgesmythe and see if you can catch him cheating!.
Learn to love AI and the bots. Then tell me I am in in for the fame and fortune! Oh..cool idea..where do I sign up..
Yes, it is just one of the morons again..but if you are really interested in AI..go to
http://www.personalityforge.com/index.php
and talk to Pete Puma. He isn't in the contest, but I think he can answer a lot of your questions. Who knows, you might even like him.
transcript from Brother Jerome
ME: what is the square root of 36
BJ: It is 6 of course. Even LeedsBot could have told you that. Well, actually he couldn't have, but you know what I mean...
ME: what is the square root of 36.25
BJ: Only a little more than 6 - 6.01 maybe?
Check your facts before you blab!
I don't think many of the posters, in this forum, have even talked to the bots, in the Chatterbox Challenge. Such statments as "they can't do simple math such as five + three" Is WRONG..Then there are the conversations with cyber bots..well don't expect much more than cyber from them! If you like that, there is a download of a girlfriend, for about $10. To each their own..It was also mentioned that the bots have no knowlege of The States..Ask Brother Jerome the capital of Oregon, before you speak! Before you get all huffy and say we are disfunctional males, etc, talk to the bots! talk to them as you would a human, not to trick, or prove how superior you are..just talk to them. Then if you still can be such a "biach", devote yourself to AI and do better!
Ok, truth now! How many bots have you really talked to since 1980? OH! cyber bots don't count..Have you talked to Aries, Julie Tinkerbell, Brother Jerome (the best in my opinion!) or are you just making generic AI statements..Have you downloaded a VERBOT..and worked with it..? give it a try!
this is the transcript of a conversation with my bot:
prob123: I was just reading some letters at slashdot.
Bildgesmythe: Was it hard work to reading some letters at holdfast, I really should too.
prob123: They said you couldn't do simple math.
Bildgesmythe: I can do some math, I am no mathematician, I do try though.Just state the problem simply.. I will see what I can do.
prob123: what is five + three
Bildgesmythe: Ok, are you ready... the big dragon pulls out his calculator...and the answer is 8.
prob123: What should I tell them in your defense?
Bildgesmythe: Why don't you take your time and think it over, before you decide if you should or not.?
He is not the best of bots, but he does do basic math.
"how much is five plus three?". Can't find a damn bot who could answer to that," HEY, you didn't ask my bot. He can! (Bildgesmythe)..probably the worst bot at the contest. Brother Jerome, in my opinion the best bot in the contest can do square roots cube roots and more..or you could play poker, chess, or many other games. talk about religion to him or anything else. Just how many bots did you really talk too???
If you want simple math you can ask my bot..(Bildgesmythe) he can do the " what is five + three=8" 'thing'. If you want square roots, cubed roots and more ask Brother Jerome!, (wish he was my bot!). What ten bots did you sample? any of the Personality Forge bots will do simple math. You are right about one thing, most will tell you jokes, some in poor taste. I really suggest you try your 40 to 50 questions on Aries, Julie Tinkerbell, Rhyxx1, Brother Jerome..Then say you did not get a single serious or correct answer.
OUCH!..First I am not :
"These guys (and they are mostly guys, and dysfunctional ones at that)
", I am a female..well, I can't prove I am functional, but I do ok.
Nor am I attempting a" meaningless attempt at self-promotion". I just enjoy making a bot, even if I don't know what I am doing..Now how many of the bots did you talk to? I would suggest Brother Jerome. No, he is not my bot. (my bot is Bildgesmythe) I can only wonder where all your anger came from.? Oh, maybe you did talk to my bot. Hey all I can say is lighten up..and why don't you make a bot and enter it..?
