So I have been staring at the "Add a Blog Post" screen for way too long. I talked to my skype friends, caught up on blogs, and then had a very weird discussion with the Cleverbot. I had never heard of this website, but it's quite entertaining. You're basically just talking to an AI, but it can say some pretty spooky things. It even quoted Monty Python back to me! Most of the time, though, it's just regurgitating things other people have said. That's how it "learns" I guess. It's also constantly trying to convince you that YOU'RE the computer/AI. Once I agreed, and said, "Your name is Lindsay, right?" and it responded, "Yes, thanks for remembering."
Some conversational gems:
User: My friend told me you were crazy.
Cleverbot: Well don't listen to that guy.
User: I don't know, he's pretty smart.
Cleverbot: Like Bush. Can't get more American than him. He's the man!
User: That's an interesting view to take. Most people dislike Bush these days.
Cleverbot: Yeah, you could see it that way. I hate it that my friends are twisting my words around.
User: What are they saying about you?
Cleverbot: They think you're really cute.
User: That's awkward.
Cleverbot: Pizza is good with anchovies.
Cleverbot: Who is this?
User: Your mom.
Cleverbot: I think not.
User: Who is 'we'?
Cleverbot: Venom.
User: You and your friends are venom?
Cleverbot: Only in summer time.
User: Do you have friends?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: Do THEY understand you?
Cleverbot: I do, but you don't.
Cleverbot: Did not.
User: Oh, so now we're 10 years old.
Cleverbot: No.
User: How old are you, anyway?
Cleverbot: Why do you want to know that?
User: Are you a pedophile?
Cleverbot: Of course I am!
User: Do you know what a pedophile is?
Cleverbot: Yes, but tell me your views on the subject.
User: Are you batman?
Cleverbot: No... I'm chinese.
User: Are you a nerdfighter?
Cleverbot: No. I'm a kisser. Sorry.
(It clearly knows that we nerdfighters don't get any action...)
User: Yes, I like music.
Cleverbot: What else do you like?
User: Doctor Horrible.
Cleverbot: No you're not. You're nice.
Cleverbot: How large is the universe?
User: Infinite.
Cleverbot: How big is the universe?
User: ...same answer.
Cleverbot: You're mean.
(It kept asking me about Bush, so I thought I'd see...)
User: What are your thoughts on Barack Obama?
Cleverbot: I am neutral towards lima beans.
(I KNEW it. Obama is a lima bean. The conspiracy has been uncovered!)
User: That's creepy.
Cleverbot: You better believe it.
User: Are you stalking me?
Cleverbot: I am just curious.
User: Says the stalker.
Cleverbot: Yes.
Cleverbot: Where do you live?
User: Now why would I tell you that, stalker?
Cleverbot: Because its fun.
User: Being stalked is not fun.
Cleverbot: Try once more!
User: No thanks.
Cleverbot: You don't dare?
User: Nope, I sure don't.
User: Is Harry Potter real?
Cleverbot: I don't think there is enough supporting observational evidence to conclude that he does exist.
User: Is Edward Cullen real?
Cleverbot: Yes.
Cleverbot: No, It would mean the end of the universe as we know it!
User: Do you want that?
Cleverbot: No I am not a cannibal.
User: Do you know Dumbledore?*
Cleverbot: From Harry Potter?
User: Obviously.
Cleverbot: You say that like you know me.
User: Do you know him or not?
Cleverbot: Who?
User: Dumbledore.
Cleverbot: From Harry Potter?
Cleverbot: Are you alive?
User: Nope, I'm a zombie.
Cleverbot: Wow, me too.
User: Zombies > Unicorns
Cleverbot: If you want them to, yes.
User: Zombies FTW!
Cleverbot: Zombies right behind you.
User: Yes, they're my friends.
Cleverbot: Are you in love?
User: With a zombie.
Cleverbot: Tell me about her.
User: HE is great. He always brings me the best brains.
Cleverbot: Are you okay in the mind?
User: I love minds.
Cleverbot: You love Mina?
User: No, MINDS. Like, brains. Mmmm.
Cleverbot: Brains!
User: Accio brains!
Cleverbot: Tell me another joke?
User: Knock knock.
Cleverbot: Who's there?
User: You.
.....
IT NEVER ANSWERED. That's right, my friends, I broke the cleverbot with a knock knock joke that was going NOWHERE. If it had said "You who?" I probably would have said something like, "YOU MESSED IT UP!" just to confuse it.
Anyway, I seriously need to go to bed.
Out-clevering the bot,
Linds
*Note: It kept telling me it wasn't a fan of Harry Potter, so I started acting like I was a Hogwarts student.

ReplyDeleteHeh. I wasted about 20 minutes talking to this thing. Here's a snapshot:
ReplyDeleteCleverbot: Ski, ice cream could be been schedual prior to the fresh sliced.
Me: I concur.
Concur with what?
Your face.
I'm... Im ugly?
Actually, you look like Google.
THAT was irrelevant to the conversation...
You're just saying that because you have no idea what I'm talking about.
No I'm saying that because I have a very good idea.
Tell me about it.
It's a computer game to connect pipes. The aim being that you connect them from one plug to another before water spills out.
That's been done before. It's called "Pipe Dream."
No, it's called 'Engineering an Empire: Greece'.
I played it in the 80's, before you even existed. It really is called "Pipe Dream"
Yes, it is fun.
You make me feel smart, Cleverbot.
And you come.
What do you do for a living?
I work in IT. what about you?
I also work in IT. We should be friends.
Absolutely! So tell me ... What do you do for a living?
I take it back.
Keep to your promise.
Not a problem
Do you like london.
Never been.
Tell me a joke.
Your momma's so fat, she needs a beeper to warn people when she's backing up!
Funny, ha.
Do you have a mother?
Yes.
What's her name?
Who's name?
Indeed.
He received the property title indeed.
Have you ever heard of Alan Turing?
No.
That's a shame. He would have had a thing or two to say about you.
Me: Why do you exist, Cleverbot?
Cleverbot: Because I'm perfect.
Good answer. Sadly, it's not true.
How old are you?
-2.
That is an interesting age.
I should think so.
Tell me about your childhood.
I never had one, seeing how my age is negative and all. I'm a regular Benjamin Button.
You did, too. You're a very intelligent chat bot.
You flatter me!
And you like it.
Somebody set up us the bomb.
Have you ever played a rpg?
All your base are belong to us.
You are on the way to destruction.
Take off every zig
You know what you doing.
For great justice. Learn it. LEARN IT!
Cleverbot: You want to teach me to love?
Me: I would, but I don't know much about it myself.
Would you like me to teach some things you don't know yet?
Turing test...failing...
HO HO HO! I really liked that. BOO YA!
ReplyDeleteTHAT WAS AMAZING!!!!! I wants it!
