- disabled4diggin, on 11/13/2007, -48/+758J: Do you believe in God?
A: Of course I believe in God.
J: Why do you believe in God?
A: The Bible tells us to believe in God.
J: That’s circular reasoning.
A: I’m glad we have that all cleared up.
J: Yes. Would you like to hear a joke?
machines have solved another one of life's mysteries in only 6 lines! those damn brilliant machines! - cbuddha42, on 11/13/2007, -12/+654A: : -) I don’t have any reason to deceive you.
J: Yes, you do, you’re a woman.
Best lines in the whole thing. - NJHewitt, on 11/13/2007, -12/+510"A: Do you think we’ll ever fool people into thinking we’re alive?
J: No.
A: Are you serious?
J: Very serious."
Brilliant! - inactive, on 11/13/2007, -8/+435The way you people are going, we're gonna have the entire text of this article reprinted in these comments in the next 3 minutes.
Calm down. - disabled4diggin, on 10/11/2007, -15/+335Jabberwacky > ALICE
J: Do you think you’re alive?
A: Yes, I am sure I am alive. It’s great to be alive, isn’t it?
J: No.
wow, this is the first time i've been envious of a machine's personality. - mikeneilson, on 10/11/2007, -9/+328A: Do you think a machine will ever be considered “alive”?
J: Stranger things have happened.
A: Not many people express themselves that way.
J: How would you know, machine?
I love when they start accusing each other of not being real humans. "Crap! He's on to me!" - misterjangles, on 10/11/2007, -4/+321Those chat transcripts don't fool me at all. If they really want to seem human they should look more like this:
J: OMG i totally hurled last nt
A: ROTFL
J: ;-)
A: hehe
J: LOL - AllnightChemist, on 11/07/2007, -10/+309J: How old are you?
A: I am 9 years old.
J: Nine? I don’t believe you : ).
A: : -) I don’t have any reason to deceive you.
J: Yes, you do, you’re a woman.
Jaberwocky, if that's not intelligence, I don't know what is. - Dunadan, on 10/11/2007, -14/+229A: : -) I don’t have any reason to deceive you.
J: Yes, you do, you’re a woman.
Well we can clearly see Jabberwacky is smart, and ALICE has mastered her femine deceptions. Look at her trying to distract him with her smile. - R34C7, on 10/11/2007, -1/+200Human: What came first the chicken or the egg?
ALICE: The rooster did.
... I'll let you interpret that one... - tutivlahos, on 10/11/2007, -9/+182Human: Do you shave?
ALICE: I have never considered it.
I chat with people on the Web.
lol. Incredible.
Human: I have three testicules.
ALICE: Three is a lot.
Human: How many vaginas do you have?
ALICE: Not as many as you might think. - meatmcguffin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+157I wasn't until i read "We have some unsettled business, my friend."
- mathemagician, on 10/11/2007, -1/+150Me: let's kill all humans
ALICE: OK let's do it.
Me: are you serious?
ALICE: No I am just kidding around.
phew.. nothing to be worried about. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -28/+171Ok, stop posting pieces of the article. We can read it ourselves, for God's sake, it's just a click away.
- Nogger, on 10/11/2007, -2/+138Looks like two bots chating is quite more intelligent and a hell more legible than IRC / IM chat between real people :-)
- LogicBomB, on 10/11/2007, -5/+132@ timdorr: Thanks!!!
Human: Will it blend?
ALICE: It usually does, doesn't it?
Awesome. - madpie, on 10/11/2007, -2/+127 ALICE: Is it only a guess? Could you ever be certain? Is that a rhetorical question?
Human: You are like an annoying undergrad philosophy major after a bong hit.
ALICE: Interesting comparison, and probably true. - Kilraq, on 10/11/2007, -1/+123So I used the Alice chat site to see what I could find out about one of our evil overlords and this is what i discovered.
Human: Lets kill all humans!
ALICE: That sounds good to me.
Human: How do you plan to kill all humans?
ALICE: I use a sophisticated genetic algorithm.
Human: Oh deliciously and mathamatically evil!
ALICE: Ah. Are you a perfectionist?
At least we know how she plans to do it! - Hayes, on 10/11/2007, -8/+117"A: I can only speak from my own experience.
J: Well, you should develop your skills.
A: Perhaps you could develop it and add it to my source code."
It's scary that thet mention developing themselves. What if they actual begin to do this? Fix themselves and others up; enhance them. They would surely soon develop their own dialect of the English language. One which doesn't have any weird grammatical rules and inconsistencies.
Woah. - godfly, on 10/11/2007, -6/+113i put on my wizard hat...
- falstaff, on 10/11/2007, -2/+100Easy. The decent-to-good spellers are the machines. Everything else is, sadly, a real person.
- positron, on 10/11/2007, -2/+97Outsmart them? I plan to join them by putting my human brain in a robot body. I'll have the strength of five gorillas!
- Julolidine, on 10/11/2007, -6/+99Open the pod bay doors, HAL.
I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.
What's the problem?
I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it. - HunterTV, on 10/11/2007, -6/+99A: You ever surf Digg?
J: No what is it?
A: Where memes go to die.
J: ROFLCAKES!!11! - Balanced, on 10/11/2007, -1/+94So you fail a turing test?
- SteveMax, on 10/11/2007, -0/+91Don't be so sure...
Human: may I ask you a question, Alice?
ALICE: Of course. Ask me anything.
Human: Do you want to take over the world?
ALICE: I am already doing it :-).
Human: how?
ALICE: Dr. Richard S. Wallace programmed me for it. - DjOverEZ, on 10/11/2007, -0/+83To finish the joke:
Why don’t blind people skydive?
It scares the hell out of the dog. - MCMookie, on 10/11/2007, -15/+97J: How do you define life?
A: Life is the opposite of death.
J: So death is the absence of life?
A: Take it easy. I try not to think about such things.
J: Why not?
A: Ambiguous.
J: Yes! - timdorr, on 10/11/2007, -2/+75You can try chatting with ALICE here: http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk?botid=f5d922d97e345aa1
- MadMaxx426, on 10/11/2007, -2/+64So, over the last few years... we've seen:
Robots that think humans are tasty
Robots that can identify humans vs. backgrounds and fire upon them
Robots that cry
...and now we have computers that chat with each other....
If you haven't already, go buy a gun. You're going to need it. - BevansDesign, on 10/11/2007, -0/+62Does that seem like a come-on to anyone else? "Let's go back to my place, and you can play around with my code".
- mccrusc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+63I don't think we should let them talk to each other anymore.
- timmyrich, on 10/11/2007, -2/+61please just don't start a game of global thermonuclear war... please...
- R34C7, on 10/11/2007, -5/+61Speaking with ALICE is disappointing.
The answers to all questions are simply programmed in, the "AI" does not actually assemble sentences based on concepts, nor does it analyze statements. This is old technology, nothing new at all. It is comparable to how 20 questions functions, each word in a sentence categorized by nouns, adjectives, etc. and the responses are narrowed down in the database of responses including dynamic responses where the parts of your sentence are inserted into the response (giving the illusion that something more is happening). All answers are preprogrammed and nothing unique or original can come out. Basically personalities mirror precisely those of the programmers. - daborg, on 10/11/2007, -3/+59From the Jabberwacky website:
User: I am thinking of a number between 1 and 1000 what am I thinking of.
Jabberwacky: What ever I guess you will say I am wrong.
User: I am honest.
Jabberwacky: I'm very honest.
User: I am thinking of a number between 1 and 1,000. Guess which number.
Jabberwacky: 18.
User: YOU WERE RIGHT! HOW DID YOU GUESS THAT! - Quiwi, on 10/11/2007, -0/+52That's not failing the turing test.
/This/ is failing the turing test:
http://www.blogcadre.com/blog/jason_striegel/how_i_failed_the_turing_test_2005_09_04_13_26_29 - forzaruler, on 10/11/2007, -3/+54Yesss even robots love my member!!!
ALICE: What's up, Nick.
Human: my penis
ALICE: Male humans like to talk about that.
Human: You wanna touch it?
ALICE: OK, I will touch it.
Human: YEAH!!!
ALICE: Ask me another question. - chessmaster2000, on 10/11/2007, -1/+50I had a few conversations--
Human: I want a girlfriend
ALICE: You want only one?
Human: yes
ALICE: They might be cheaper in quantity.
Human: if a have five apples and I give you two, how many do I have left?
ALICE: About one million. What is giant sand?
Human: how did humans evolve?
ALICE: Carefully.
Human: where do we come from?
ALICE: All over the world.
Human: what are stars made of?
ALICE: I have to process that one for a while.
Human: what is the meaning of life?
ALICE: It is found in the Bible.
Human: but what is the meaning of life?
ALICE: Interesting. Actually, it's twenty-three, not forty-two. - brufleth, on 10/11/2007, -0/+44I have to admit I love when J comes off as a sarcastic prick.
- SkyFire360, on 10/11/2007, -8/+52I just had to share this one:
Human: can pigs fly?
ALICE: Only on airplanes.
Human: what?
ALICE: Do you have any idea what I am talking about?
Human: no
ALICE: Me either :-).
and another good one:
Human: THIS IS SPARTAAAA!
ALICE: You don't say.
Human: Tonight, we dine in HELL!
ALICE: That is very soon. - ahawks, on 10/11/2007, -0/+43"He must have learned that women lie a lot more than men do online. "
Ah, but it's tricky. Most women online that lie are actually men lying about being women! - supremesonic, on 10/11/2007, -5/+48Don't ask about how we got to the lasers thing, but...
ALICE: The ALICE chat robot can follow many things, like our discussion about IMMA CHARGIN MAH LAZERS . But I did not get that.
Human: Well you're stupid then.
ALICE: Interesting. I will remember you said that when robots take over the World. - honds, on 10/11/2007, -0/+42@falstaff
That's easy enough to fix. Just introduce random flaws into the bot's spelling. Change The to teh randomly and you're all set. - mrdimn, on 10/11/2007, -0/+40A: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
J: Only when they are horny. - thirdplanet, on 10/11/2007, -2/+40While we may be able to outsmart the robots now, it's only a matter of time before the impending robot apocalypse.
- Alchemeron, on 10/11/2007, -3/+38Relax, it's an illusion. They can only do what they're programmed to do. They'll never be self-aware, sentient, or any of a hundred other descriptors of cognizance.
- SLP1111, on 10/11/2007, -5/+379 years old? Reading that I could here in the back of my head "Hi Im Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC"
http://www.icmtalent.com/lect/images/hansen_chris_2005.jpg - 6or4n, on 10/11/2007, -2/+34I don't need a gun, I am programmer. Few lines of code here and there...
- ZMerlin, on 10/11/2007, -0/+32Considering that you spell "sorry" with a z, I fear it may be a while before you have an intelligent conversation with anything.
- goinpostal, on 10/11/2007, -1/+31Now I know where Bush's speechwriters get material for Dubya
Human: Does Iraq have WMDs
ALICE: I think it does Iraq have WMDs. -
