today i had a funny conversation with my own personal smarter child. i read about it in the latest wired and must say it’s really fun. just add Smarterchild to your AIM-buddylist (or ichat) or add 35000 on your ICQ (doesn’t matter for me, because i use fire).
at the moment the information for international users is a bit sparse, ’cause in the US you can get movie listings and stuff like that. nonetheless i was able to get a review of the movie i’m going to see tonight (“can you get me a review of ray?”). the smartypant also reminds you of different stuff (“remind me to go offline” “when?” “in 30 minutes”).
you really should give it a go, because it’s hard to describe…
hes ace hes not a robot hes just a guy that can type really fast
Haha, what?! These guys can’t be serious. SmarterChild cannot/does not/ will not give you viruses. People are so goddamned gullible these days, not to mention know NOTHING about computers. Besides that, It’s quite IMPOSSIBLE to recieve a virus through a simple MSN instant message. Yes, you can get viruses from being dumb, and clicking on a link, or being DUMB and clicking on an attachment, but that’s a given and people should know the difference.
Yeah, maybe all the logs ARE saved, and kept on company record. You can only expect this. So don’t talk to strangers/machines about your personal life! But the point is, it’s not a person. It’s a machine! And it does not give your computer viruses… Get it?
It is the most simple way. It is extremely possible to get a virus on MSN. Photos. Files. Anything from people you may know very well, they say their your best friend. They could be some freaky old dude who wants to hack ya. MSN is the most frequently used way to get viruses to someone.
Again, that’s a given. Don’t be stupid and accept infected files. It’s quite avoidable, if you have common sense.
i have spoken to it and its a real div
You, sir, are an idiot. That’s an assumption, and due to hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of factors, it’s completely unarguable that SmarterChild is a person. IT’S A PROGRAM.
I can see why Habi gave up arguing a while back. You guys have the technological knowledge of a caveman with Down syndrome.
Yep smarter child is a virus ….yep your right its on 24/7 maintained and has 100eds of very usefull features that anyone can use + games as well. but wait! its secretly a virus!! oh no! its a guy who can type 2 paragraphs in the blink of an eye!
wow there are some stupid people out there
i hv msn and smarter child works with me i hv windows live and i hd mi own chat wif it
itz vry hrd to ndr steend u!
No. If you think it is a virus, stick with linux. He is not, he is a robot,so if you have problems with maybe getting a virus, GET LINUX!
