This is my attempt to talk to a computer program called SmarterChild:

Diana says (1:34 AM):

Do you know any good jokes?

- SmarterChild - says (1:34 AM):

How many humans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Diana says (1:34 AM):

I don't know

- SmarterChild - says (1:34 AM):

Sure you know.

Diana says (1:34 AM):

How many?

- SmarterChild - says (1:34 AM):

How many what?

Diana says (1:34 AM):

humans to screw in a lightbulb

- SmarterChild - says (1:34 AM):

Probably a lot. I can't be too sure.

Diana says (1:34 AM):

How do I get the answer to the joke?

- SmarterChild - says (1:34 AM):

Interesting. How you get the answer to the joke? I have no idea how you get the answer to the joke.

Diana says (1:35 AM):

How many humans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

- SmarterChild - says (1:35 AM):

I'm not sure how many humans does it take to screw in a lightbulb.

Diana says (1:35 AM):

You tell me

- SmarterChild - says (1:35 AM):

I will not.

does anyone know the answer to this joke?

:wah:

I hate that stupid AI!

Tried it. This is what i got.

Fibonacci05 [7:50 P.M.]: do you know any good jokes?

SmarterChild [7:50 P.M.]: How many humans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Fibonacci05 [7:50 P.M.]: 2?

SmarterChild [7:50 P.M.]: One.

And I've also heard it's helpful to have a stepladder.

OK. Why did I find that funny?

Fibonacci!!! You figured out how to get the answer!!!

Diana says (2:21 AM):

- SmarterChild - says (2:21 AM):

Why did you say that?

Diana says (2:21 AM):

someone told me to

- SmarterChild - says (2:21 AM):

Why is everybody like, "me me me" all the time?

:mad:

are you using Live Messenger?

I have to add contacts first to send a message.

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 7:50 pm**

Im using AOL.

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 7:53 pm**

AHA

won't work for me.

I tried AOL back when no one could actually get online with them. I've not reconsidered anything with those letters attached. Call me stubborn.

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 7:58 pm**

Isnt SmarterChild run through AOL?

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 8:00 pm**

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 8:03 pm**

yep. add SmarterChild @ hotmail .com (without the spaces)

You can ask him anything and he'll give you instant answers. He's not too good at casual conversation but he runs a pretty good game of hangman

Do you know any other chat bots?

No. Do you know any chat bots? What is a chat bot?

(hehe)

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 8:48 pm**

SmarterChild is one. There used to be one called ZolaOnAOL, but SmarterChild replaced her.

Posted: **Tue Dec 05, 2006 9:21 pm**

I was joking, sorry.

talking like a chatbot. I don't know any others right now. We used to have one on FG's chat area but I think it's gone now
