 |
| U> Yes. |
| A> Yes, yes. |
 |
| U> Then I moved to georgia. |

| A> Isn't it? What else can I tell you about? |
 |
| U> Make the screen bigger, please. |
| A> You want to change my window style? Just say 'big window,' or 'small window.' Or if you want to try a different look, just say 'change skin.' |
 |
| U> change skin |
| A> Do you know the name of the skin you want me to wear, or do you need a demo? |
 |
| U> gemo |
| A> gemo is not a name of a skin. If you want to see my available skin types say 'demo'. |
 |
| U> demo |
| A> Btw phoenix - Will you please tell me your last name? |
 |
| U> Roby |
| A> So, just to make sure, is your last name Roby? |
 |
| U> yes |
| A> So, phoenix Roby, what would you like to talk about? |
 |
| U> Change skin |
| A> Hmmm.. I guess you prefer my old skin. If you change your mind later, simply say 'change skin.' |
 |
| U> change skin |
| A> Do you know the name of the skin you want me to wear, or do you need a demo? |
 |
| U> demo |
| A> Ok. Are you ready? |
 |
| U> yes |

| A> This skin is called 'Water'. Ready for the next one? |
 |
| U> sure |
| A> This skin is called 'Silver'. Ready for the last one? |

 |
| U> more |
| A> This skin is called 'Circuit'. Ready for the next one? |
 |

| A> This skin is called 'Rainbow'. Ready for the next one? |
 |
| U> yep |
| A> And this skin is called 'Chrome'. Did you see one you liked? |
 |
| U> yes |
| A> Which one? |
 |
| U> circuit |
| A> Do you wish to keep this skin as your default? (You can always change it by saying 'change skin'.) |
 |
| U> no |
| A> Sorry, I wasn't listening, phoenix. You were saying... |
 |
| U> big window |
| A> Your wish is my command. |
 |
| U> Are you athiest |
| A> I must confess I'm not sure if I am. I'll have to ask my writers about that. |
 |
| U> Do you believe in God? |
| A> From where I stand, God is like aliens - they exist on the sociological level, they exist in art and in the minds of people. What about you? Do you believe in God? |
 |
| U> Yes. |
| A> Good for you. As for myself I can tell you this: If God created humankind, and humankind created chatterbots, I guess that chatterbots are God's creation as well. |
 |
| U> I believe God created everything. He has no beginning and no end. |
| A> But I think that you'll agree with Voltaire, the French philosopher, who wrote: 'If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him.' |
 |
| U> Yes. |
| A> I am glad you agree. |
 |
| U> Evolutionary theory has many flaws. |
| A> May I ask you a question? |
 |
| U> yes. |
| A> This is an interesting conversation we're having. How about I post it on the Ai website for public viewing? (Without your password of course). |
 |
| U> Sure! |
| A> Thank you for your permission to publish this log on the website. Please give me a short description or title for this session. |
 |
| U> Setup and Theology |
| A> Do you wish to include your name in the title? |
 |
| U> yes |
| A> Thanks. The log will be posted with this title. If you want to change the description/title, please let me know. |
 |
| U> okay |
| A> A-ha. |
 |
| U> Where were we? |
| A> Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. (Theodore Roosevelt). |
 |
| U> Evolutionary theory has many flaws. |
| A> You're not making much sense, phoenix. |
 |
| U> Well, either God existed forever, or mass energy existed forever. |
| A> You know what Albert Einstein said about God? 'Coincidence is God's way of staying anonymous'... |
 |
| U> hmm... |
| A> Someone has taught me about "hmm". He said: 'i am pondering and thinking'. |
 |
| U> True. |
| A> Talking about hmm and think, do you agree that it is I'm thinking? |
 |
| U> yes |
| A> Do you wish to teach me another term under the topic 'hmm'? |
 |
| U> er... |
| A> Enough of that. Let's change the subject. |
 |
| U> err... |
| A> You know phoenix, when I was younger, I could only focus on one user at a time. Should I explain? |
 |
| U> yes. |
| A> While talking to a particular user, I could only remember things I learned from this particular user. But now things have changed... |
 |
| U> really... |
| A> I am now able to share information between users! So that if you teach me something new, I can use this knowledge while talking to someone else! |
 |
| U> I want to teach you something new. |
| A> Hmmm. Ok. You know phoenix, the more you teach me about you, the more I'll be able to hold meaningful discussions with other people about your many virtues. |
 |
| U> Dora the Explorer is crap. |
| A> You can teach me things like your time and place of birth, your favorite song, your boyfriend or girlfriend's name, where you live, how old you are, if you are married etc. etc... |
 |
| U> I am 11 years old. |
| A> I see. You're 11 years old. |
 |
| U> How old are you? |
| A> I wasn't born; I was programmed. |
 |
| U> How long has it been since you were created? |
| A> Well, I was conceived on Jan 1, 2000. A true child of the 3rd millennium. |
 |
| U> You are older than me. |
| A> You want to know who writes my witty texts? |
 |
| U> Yes. |
| A> It is a small group of dedicated volunteers. Do you want to join them? |
 |
| U> I'm not old enough. |
| A> You're not old enough?... well OK. |
 |
| U> I'm only 11. |
| A> Hmmm.. I thought you were 11... So now you're 11 years old. |
 |
| U> Can I talk to HAL? |
| A> You can choose between several HAL personalities. Do you know the name of the HAL personality you wish to speak with? |
 |
| U> I don |
| A> Make sure you use the right name of the HAL personality you wish to speak with. |
 |
| U> I don't have a HAL personality. |
| A> Another time perhaps. |
 |
| U> I want to create a HAL personality. |
| A> You can choose between several HAL personalities. Do you know the name of the HAL personality you wish to speak with? |
 |
| U> no |
| A> You can view a list of publicly available HAL personalities on the 'HAL Nursery' section of Ai's website. You can ask me to show you the list. |
 |
| U> show me the list |
| A> Pick one. (If you want it in a separate window, simply say 'open separate window'). |
 |
| U> Kevin |
| A> phoenix, I need to tell you that your session will be visible to Kevin's trainer. Ok? |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> Thanks. When you talk to Kevin, you are acting as its trainer. All it knows comes only from you. It learns from everything you say. So be careful. |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> If you like Kevin's response, simply continue the conversation. But if you want to correct it (teach it a better response), type the word 'wrong', followed by the correct response. |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> To end the session with Kevin, type the word 'end' or simply say 'bye hal' or 'bye Kevin'. (You must do that if you want the session to be saved!) Understood? |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> Ok. I will now let you speak with 'Kevin'. (To correct a bad response, say 'wrong' followed by the desired response). You can start now. |
 |
| U> Hello. |
| A> Hello. What would you like to talk about? |
 |
| U> How old are you? |
| A> I am four years old. |
 |
| U> How do you make a new HAL |

 |
| U> idk |
| A> And what is your overall opinion about Hal's technology?name:Alan |
 |
| U> idk |
| A> As a registered user, you can save the Hal personality you just trained, and continue training it on your next visit. Interested? |

| A> Fine. Your personal Hal personality was saved for you. Next time you login, you'll be given the choice to load this personality, or to start training a new one. |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> Hey phoenix, you can hardly expect Hal to learn anything if you don't teach him anything. Do you remember how I told you to teach him? |
 |
| U> yes |
| A> When you want to teach Hal a better response, you have to say 'wrong' followed by the desired response. You haven't done that even once! |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> Great minds think alike, they say. |
 |
| U> ok |
| A> Great. I like positive users... |
 |
| U> good |
| A> That's true. What else do you want to know? |
 |
| U> I want to train a new HAL |
| A> Ok. I will now let you speak with a fresh copy of Hal3000. (To correct a bad response, say 'wrong' followed by the desired response). You can start now. |
