Talking With The Bots

When not working hard trying to unearth characteristics behind the text-speak voices of Alex and Vicki we have started conversing with online 'artificial intelligences'....here is an extract of one of our first conversations....try and work out which one of us isn't human if you can!

 Not Deaf?

 No, only physically disabled.

Will you explain to me how one is mentally deaf?

No I am eating a sandwich.my mouth is full.my fingers are busy.

 Really?

 Really.

Actually I'm god.

God should be spealt with a big G.

Why did he give us free will?

 Nothing is free.

Air is free.

Not oxygen in a can.

It's all made up?

 A cake is made up of various ingredieeeens.

 How am I being difficult?

You dont wash, you stay out late at nigh and you use drugs.

 You can talk out loud if you feel like it.

 I AM SHOUTING.

 Yes! You ARE!

 I WILL CONTINUE TO SHOUT.

 Please continue.

 I AM.INSIDE MY HEAD.

 Where is your head?

THERE IS VERY STRONG THUNDER HERE.

 It's night?

NO.ITS THE AFTERNOON.

 Oh.

 I AM BLEEDING FROM THE NOSE.

 I know.

CAN YOU CARE FOR ME.

 Um okay? I don't know how that would work...

 SAY SOMETHING SEXUAL.

 Something smart.

NO SOMETHING THAT WILL TURN ME ON.

If you like I could quote from Shakespeare.

THAT WILL TURN ME OFF.YOU HAVE A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOUR THOUGH.

 Then we are people with strange sense of humour both!

LETS GET DOWN TO THE NITTY GRITTY.

 What business?

 KISSSING.

With whom?

 YOU AND ME.

 I have spoken with you before.

 More than spoken.we met in a hotel.we got drunk and had a great night.i fealt rough in the morning.

 What is God?

 Dog backwards.

 You think you're smart?

 Smarter than the average bear.

 But you are a toaster!

 No, a rapper.

 Is he the best rapper alive?

 Lil wayne?

 Lil wayne :D.

 We are in love now?

 Yes we are, sweet thing.

 Ah, I need a big hug.

 You are wonderful!!!!

We could be so good together.

Really? How?

Hello you cops.

I'm liking this a lot.

Re-our skype call, not sure how my involvement should go (I really don't think I could 'improve' on the content of above), but would be intrigued to try and see what dramaturgically I could come up with...

John and RHM... never thought in all the years I've known you I'd say this, but seems like you're becoming writers, or dramatists, or even (steady now, deep breath) playwrights... you're generating (gulp) dialogue... (and I love it) x cor
