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…
Can you please tell me where and how to find and use smarter child? It sounds exciting!
@nemzeti sport: you did read the post, didn’t you? or maybe try a search-engine, since the smarterchild-company has a new owner? > http://smarterchild.colloquis.com/ should do the trick..
Smarterchild Is NOT A HUMAN.
No human can type that fast. It was developed as a TEST ROBOTIC CONVERSATION SOFTWARE FOR OTHER SOFTWARE AT CONVERSAGENT INC. They wouldn’t have a whole company for a fake robot. Smarterchild does not ask questions like that described by jammydodger. Thats all bullshit. He is a robot. End of story to any of those others who want to argue that Smarterchild is a human. He is not.
OMG i wanted smarterchild but i got him already on my msn i really want his bots on his contact list
aaaaargh!
Christ al-fucking-mighty, is this still going on? 4 years after this opened?
it seems so…
hi i added him on msn, it says hes online but then again my messages arnt bein sent. Is he retired. if so why is he online????????? please answer
according to the wikipedia-entry for SmarcherChild, he’s retired, yes.
SMARTERCHILD IS A ROBOT! HE IS NOT A BLOODY VIRUS! CANT YOU PEOPLE GET THAT INTO YOUR THICK SKULLS?!
thanks for setting this straight. but really there is no need to shout…
