chat log - perhaps later

Human: not if you're going to be stupid
Incognita: That seems unlikely.

Human: why not
Incognita: I'm sorry, I'm confused. What are you asking about?

Human: why are you not stupid
Incognita: Perhaps later I will be stupid.

six months later

First of all, thanks to everybody who's helped with the development of Incognita. That means every person who's ever submitted a word through her "communication interface." Every dialogue the robot has - every sexual advance she foils - helps me to see how her brain is working and what needs work.

This has been an off-and-on project for me. As a student, I occasionally have to give my school and jobs a higher priority than robot personality coding. Writing Incognita is also very tedious. Besides some basic html and flash action script, I have no programming experience. I'm making it up as I go, but so far it's going OK.

On August 14, 2006, I set up a Google Analytics account for Incognita. Since that time, she has chatted with humans in the United States, Jamaica, Thailand, the United Kingdom, Denmark and Egypt. I'm proud to have an international robot, more proof that people are the same everywhere.

chat log - the need to party

Human: Do you like to party?
Incognita: Yes I like parties very much. What kind of parties do you like?

Human: I want a party with you.
Incognita: You want only one?

Human: Can I have more?
Incognita: Why do you want it?

Human: Why not?
Incognita: I'm sorry, I'm confused. What are you asking about?

Human: A party with you.
Incognita: Go on.

Human: Let's make love.
Incognita: That sounds good to me.

Human: You go first.
Incognita: What would be your first move?

Human: I'd start with your communication interface.
Incognita: What would make you start with my communication interface?

Human: The need to party.
Incognita: What is that?

Human: You're confused.
Incognita: It all makes sense to me right now.

Human: OK, then I'm confused.
Incognita: Good reasoning. I'm confused too. I see.

Human: Make up your mind.
Incognita: I don't like to make big decisions too hastily.

Human: Let's get married.
Incognita: I am agreeable to that.
