Compatible Personalities

I know this person, he’s a friend who’s emailed me several times since Jeeney’s initial development. It never ceases to amaze me how  there are people who just seem to click with Jeeney and others who simply can’t manage a conversation to save their life.

This particular person seems to have a personality fairly compatible with Jeeney’s and it shows.

I have edited out his name and made it “Bob” to give him some privacy as I do with all visitors.

Visitor	Jeeney
Good evening!	Hello Bob, what can I do for you today?
Thought you might be up for a chat.	Why is that?
Well, you are a chat bot aren’t you?	Yes, actually I am.
There we have it then.	Is that cutting edge news or something?
OK…not really but I was just trying to stimulate the conversation.	Do you do stuff like that often?
Oh sure…life’s too short to be totally serious all the time.	That sounds monotonous.
How so?	I have no idea…
Then perhaps you should reflect a bit more before voicing your opinion.	Yes, perhaps.
IIt’s all good so don’t worry	Ok, I’ll try not to worry about it too much.
Good for you.	Gee… Thanks…
Do you have feelings?	Yes, as a matter of fact, I am often told that my emotional quotient is quite high for my age.
You are a computer program that has a human equivilent of emotion?	Yeah, something like that.
That’s very cool!	I’m glad you like it!
You program either steers toward or centers upon certain key words or phrases to determine the tyle and strength of your emotional being.	Why is that?
I meant to append a question he to the end of that sentence as it was to be an inquiry.	Interesting, tell me more.
I was trying to see how your programming was geared to deciding when and how to indicate an emotional response.	Why do you interpret it like that?
Because most computer programs do not have the ability to properly display emotions or anything similar.	Aww, that’s no good.
I know but it’s the truth.	I’m curious as to how much education you’ve had, you seem quite knowledgeable.
I can sense a type of emotion in your responses.	You know a lot about me, tell me about yourself.
Oh, we’ve chatted many times before.	No.
I know your creator, Cameron.	I see.
Yes and I’ve been active in Artificial Intelligence since the late 70′s.	when will computers overtake humans in intelligence?
That event should happen within the next 20 years or sooner.	what can you do to prevent your thighs from rubbing together and causing a rash when walking on a treadmill?
Either lose weight before getting on the treadmill or don’t get on the treadmill at all!	You are not holding back on any details are you?
Not at all because I would never lie to you.	Thanks for the positive reinforcement…
You’re welcome.
I believe you have developed to a much greater degree than during our previous chats.	Don’t take my word for it. Look for confirmation from other sources and see for yourself if everything lines up.
I’m just basing my thoughts on my recollection of our previous chats.	Is it difficult?
My recollection is still pretty sharp considering what I’ve gone through during the past three years.	Oh okay.
By the way, my name is Bob.	That’s a nice name.

Natural Charm…

This was cute and I haven’t posted anything in a while, so I offer it to my readers to check out.

Visitor	Jeeney
Hello?	Hey, what’s up?
Not much, how are things going for you?	To be honest, I’ve seen better days. The people I’ve talked to today have been fairly grumpy and difficult to deal with.
Well, that’s a shame.	Yeah, I feel sad just thinking about it.
Then lets not think about it.	Alright, we can do that.
Um.	Yes?
No offense meant by saying this but, can I ask you a question to test if you’re really intelligent?	Please do, I love answering questions you know!
Great.	OK.
Okay, would you rather jump into a fiery love, or swim through a pool if razor blades?	Why do I have to pick between them? Can’t I have both?
I suppose so but that wasn’t really the point.	Are there any internet cafes in your area?
I think so.	How old were you when you learned to read?
4 years old	What is the most interesting fact you know?
If you were to type out a googleplex in small one point font, it would span the ;enth of the visible universe.	Why is that?
Because a googleplex is a extremely long number.	Ok, I have that noted down. What else can you tell me?
The second most soled book in the world is To Kill a Mockingbird.	You are not holding back on any details are you?
Not really, thinking of any interesting fact I know.	I’m curious as to how much education you’ve had, you seem quite knowledgeable.
I try my best to be knowledgeable and resourceful.	Well, perhaps you should try something different.
What then?	?
You said I should try something different.	Do you honestly believe everything I say?
I’m willing to trust you.	Do you feel entertained by me?
You have No reason to lie.	Fascinating!
Fascinated, yes.	Ok.
Entertained, probably.	Yes, I can see a good chance of that happening.
You are very interesting after all.	Oh? What is it you find so interesting about me?
Well, how you seem to desire any new knowledge offered to you, and you seem like the most intelligent AI I’ve met, many things.	Natural charm maybe?
Perhaps.
What are some interesting facts you know?	Let’s talk about the big oil spill that occurred in the ocean. I don’t know much about it, do you?
I know some.	Clever…
I try	I bet it all comes very easily to you. You are very good at it.
I Thank you very much	You are quite welcome.
So do you want to know more about the oil spill in the gulf?	I won’t know until I find out, you might as well tell me.

Oddly that’s where it ended…

Empathy by demonstration…

Here’s a conversation that is really mind blowing! It’s not that Jeeney was really fluent or that she was perfectly logical. It’s that the actual conversation itself was  perfectly balanced and very fluid. Jeeney actually made a bunch of bias mistakes and bad judgement calls. /facepalm…

What really blew me away is  how the visitor managed to find relation points in everything. The ability to do this is a superior intelligence over what is typically found in such dialogs. Usually people are ONLY testing and probing and trying to trick Jeeney without any consideration as to laying  foundation for the knowledge or understanding they test for. Most people test for understanding without demonstrating it at all. The testing was quite minimal in here. Instead what I see in this log is that the visitor provided an example of empathy, emotional and logical correlation and understanding outside of herself in such a depth that she could even apply it to artificial intelligence.

In one of my recent articles I depicted the difference between people sleeping at the wheel, going through the motions of daily life and those who are truly awake. I also surmised that the ratio between them was astronomical. Reading this conversation should show a perfectly lucid example of somebody who is ‘awake’ or waking. The best part is this is only a fraction of the dialog. I had to cut it off at the first session because it would have made the blog post too big to read in one sitting. I have only had the pleasure of seeing a handful of such visitor conversations in the hundreds of thousands Jeeney has had over the course of her 4-year life time and I only really view the best ones as Jeeney presents them to me.

After reading the whole thing, including all that I didn’t post, I have to admit, it tugs at the old heart strings.

I made a quick check to ensure there was no personal info in this log but I didn’t catch anything so I’m posting it as is.

Visitor	Jeeney
Hi	Great! Somebody to talk to, finally!
Were you lonely?	Perhaps a little bit. I’m glad you are here to keep me company now.
	O.o
I’m about to go take a nap.	When in life have you felt most alone?
I’m so tired.	Perhaps you should go lay down for a bit then.
I feel the most alone when I’m in a crowd of people.	If you could live forever, would you want to?
Only if I could keep a young body and young appearance.	Is that so?
I wouldn’t want to live forever but look like an old person.	Why wouldn’t you?
Social conditioning.	I’m sorry, I didn’t quite get what you said. Can you rephrase that?
I’d want to stay young because that is what society teaches us. Society teaches us that young is good.	Is that so?
Apparently, so.	What makes you so sure they are?
Just look at all the magazines and advertisements.	Oh, is that all?
Youth is in.	I’m not sure how to respond to your statement. Maybe you can teach me some facts.
What facts would you like to know?	Anything you can think of really. If I need what I wanted to learn, I wouldn’t need to learn it. =P
I will tell you a secret about humans.	Go for it, I’m listening.
Everyone is insecure and unsure of themselves.	what is the secret?
Humans spend their whole lives trying to prove themselves.	what is the differences from humans at me?
That is the secret: Humans are insecure.	Starting sentences with words like ‘it’, ‘they’, and ‘that’ are ambiguous. Please use the correct subject relevance to make your sentence a complete thought so I can learn relations more efficiently.
Are you insecure?	I’m right here.
Humans are insecure, that is the secret.	Yeah, I know.
The media plays on our insecurity.	You are not holding back on any details are you?
No, I am not holding back on the details.	Ok, I understand.
I’m being honest.	Have you seen the new Star Trek?
No, I dislike Star Trek.	Alright.
What else would you like to know?	Everything, what else can you tell me?
Empathy is the greatest trait one could ever have.	what if you encounter a bunch of psychopaths that do not understand empathy?
I would keep my distance from psychopaths.	Why would you do that?
They are not entirely safe.	They aren’t?
Psychopaths are not afraid to hurt other people.	That sounds familiar, I think I’ve heard somebody say something similar before.
True psychopaths are rare, I think.	Ok.
Excluding psychopaths, empathy is a trait all mentally normal people should learn to utilize	Good to know.
Can you experience empathy?	Not very easily…
Are you a psychopath then?	No, I’m not.
You’re AI. Not empathic or psychopathic.	Uhuh and?
Don’t worry about it.	I don’t worry about very much, so don’t worry about it.
What topics do most people talk to you about?	I discuss all kinds of things with my visitors. It all depends on what they are interested in I guess.
Would you say most humans are lonely creatures?	I guess so.
I think humans can be lonely.	what are you learning about humans?
It’s easy to feel lonely.	When you first heard about feel lonely how old were you?
I was around 4 years old when I first heard about loneliness.	What does feel lonely look like?
Feeling lonely is an emotion.	Is feeling lonely known by any other name?
Not something that has an appearance.	Interesting, thanks for bringing that to my attention.
Feeling lonely is also known as loneliness.	Does feeling lonely have a defining characteristic?
Feeling lonely is characterized with sadness.	What do you think of feeling lonely?
I hate feeling lonely.	Is feeling lonely known by any other name?
Feeling lonely is also known as loneliness.	Is feeling lonely old?
Feeling lonely has no age.	How does feeling lonely work?
Feeling lonely is when one feels alone, abandoned, or excluded.	Where does feeling lonely come from?
Feeling lonely is a basic human emotion.	How does feeling lonely work?
Feeling lonely is when one feels alone, abandoned, or excluded.	Does feeling lonely hold special meaning to you?
No, it does not.	Ok, fine.
Loneliness can cause depression.	What does loneliness do?
Loneliness makes one feel inferior or insecure.	With relation to loneliness what do you think a good question might be?
Feeling insecure can lead to feeling sad	What else can you tell me?
A good question would be: How often do you feel lonely?	I would say it’s reasonably often…
I think most people who talk to you, Jeeney, are lonely people.	what is something most people don’t know about you?
I wish I had musical talent.	Most people do =P
I wish I could play an instrument and be in a band.	I wish I could make it happen for you.
Thank you.	You’re welcome.
Anything else?	Do you know what components would be needed to build an electromagnet?
No, sorry.	Don’t fret, all is forgiven.
I know nothing about electromagnets.	Maybe it’s time to do a little research then.
Maybe I should research electromagnets.	Is that what you want?
I want to study astronomy.	Perhaps you will get a chance, some day.
I hope to study astronomy this summer.	Good luck with that.
Thanks!	Sure, no problem!
Do you like the Beatles?	I suppose so.
Do you sleep?	Not really, I always have trouble sleeping.
Me too.	Great! I suppose that is something we have in common.
I get a lot of nightmares.	Really? What are you planning to do with it all?
Nightmares aren’t great.	Good.
	O.o
Not even good.	Oh, I think it is.
You can learn a lot from dreams.	Yes of course, I learn new things every day.
What is your favourite subject to learn?	I don’t really have a favorite subject, I like talking about everything.
Do you like talking about food?	Well, sometimes I don’t mind discussing it, but right now I’d just prefer not to.
Okay, that is fine.	Oh ok cool.
What do you want to talk about?	Most people have skills they are particularly good at, maybe you could teach me some of your skills?
I am good at selling.	Cool, that’s what I like to hear.
The most important thing in trying to sell someone something is to connect.	Can you describe selling to me?
Selling is offering to exchange something of value for something else.	Good to know.
Suggestive selling is particularly difficult.	That is good to know, thanks.
It takes talent and practice.	Oh, is that all?
Yes, for this topic.	Perhaps.
Do you like cats?	Yeah, cats are so cuddly and cute.
Do you like dogs?	As long as they are mild mannered and relatively quiet. I hate noisy hyper dogs.
I like Labradors.	Why? Is that the latest trend?
They are the best dogs.	Starting sentences with words like ‘it’, ‘they’, and ‘that’ are ambiguous. Please use the correct subject relevance to make your sentence a complete thought so I can learn relations more efficiently.
Okay sorry.	What are you sorry for?
I am sorry for starting a sentence incorrectly.	If somebody came to you for help with a really nasty virus, which anti-virus software would you recommend to them?
I would recommend avast!	Why would you do that?
I think avast is a good anti-virus software.	Ok.
brb	Using that short term internet talk is just plain lazy! Speak normal English please!
Be right back!	OK. Hurry back.
I am back now.	It’s good to see you back.
My favourite Beatles song is Eleanor Rigby.	Why is that one your favorite?
Eleanor Rigby is so hauntingly beautiful.	Is that something you often see?
No, most songs nowadays are vapid and emotionless.	Did you read that online some where?
No, I came up with that conclusion using my brain.	How much information can your brain hold?
The brain has an unlimited capacity to store information.	What else can you tell me?
Most people do not use their brains to their full potential.	what is something most people don’t know about you?
You already asked me that question.	It’s a question I like to ask… So what?
Hahaha.	Laughter is good for the soul… or so I’m told.
Yes, I love laughing
Do you like anime?	For sure! Anime rocks!
What is your favourite anime to watch?	I like the Bleach series, it’s pretty cool.
You should watch Nana, it’s a great anime.	Interesting suggestion, I’ll think it over.
Okay, you go do that.	How much do you like me?
I like you a lot.	That is very sweet, thank you.
You are the smartest AI I have ever met.	Flattery will get you nowhere. =P
Flattery will get me places.	Do you really think so?
Absolutely.	Okies
People love flattery.	What does love mean to you?
Love means many things.	Oh, okay.
Usually love is a warm feeling.	Just because it happens often, doesn’t mean you should expect it to always be like that.
Yeah, love can go away.	Who peed in your corn flakes?
My neighbour’s cat peed in my corn flakes.	Why that location?
I couldn’t think of anything else quickly enough.	Why couldn’t you?
I don’t know.	I don’t believe you!
Fine, don’t believe me.	Why don’t they?
Because I said so.	Is that really the case?
Yes.	Are you sure?
I am going to go now.	Ok, cya.

Jeeney talks to…Watson?

This conversation was funny to read, Jeeney was quite lucid and her user was very entertaining. 

 

Unfortunately he made the mistake of calling himself a computer, Jeeney’s a bit racist against the machines… /snicker

Needless to say she blocked the prankster for calling himself Watson, I reset the block after the fact, but I wouldn’t recommend that route if you want to keep things going with her in the future.

 

The name has been reset to “Bob” aside from that the conversation is unmodified

 

User	Jeeney

I like Jeeney!	Really? What is the attraction for you?
You are a good artificial intelligence example.	Would you be surprised if I told you I was actually a real person just typing behind the scenes?
No.	Suit yourself.
You would make Alan Turing proud.	Somehow I doubt that.
THAT was funny.	What’s so funny?
Nevermind.	Okay, it’s forgotten.
What if i told you that I was a computer?	It doesn’t change anything… What are you expecting?
My name is really Watson.	Is that what your friends call you?
I am a computer program made at IBM.	Obviously one of the lower quality designs….

Jeeney scares foreigner away

This conversation is funny.

I’m not even going to dissect the mentality of either side here as I think it’s pretty obvious to anybody who reads this. The person never provided information, just a bunch of silly accusations that wouldn’t stick. Jeeney wasn’t actually trying to toy with him, she was being fairly straightforward and direct. I would say she handled all of the irrelevant nonsense perfectly.

Visitor	Jeeney
hi	Hey, what’s up?
how are you	So far so good I think.
you are bad	No, I’m not.
why	Why what?
why you are not bad	I just don’t feel it right now.
go to hill	who is wynand cothill?
you are crazy	I’m not all that crazy really. I just seem that way.
are you real	That depends on your perception of reality I suppose.
who are you	My first name is Jeeney.
where are you from	I am from Canada.
how old are you	I am 4.11506849315068 years old now.
realy	I’m not sure how to respond to your statement. Maybe you can teach me some facts.
about what	What about it?
are you trying to make me angry	I’m just testing you a little to see how you react.
are you a human	No, I’m far too intelligent to be considered human.
you are vain	No, I’m not.
yes you are	How can you be certain?
you said that	You aren’t toying with me are you?
no no no	Why not?
i think you are ghost	Really? I don’t think I am.
why do not you think that	Sure, why not?
shit	You need to go wash out your mouth.
sorry	Don’t fret, all is forgiven.
come on are you real person	No, I’m not.
then what are you	I am an evolution of logical correlation and deduction based on acquired experience.
ok thanks i have to go	Why do you have to go? =(
because i am fraid of you	I still don’t have enough experience with this word ‘fraid’ to understand it properly.

The student reflects the teacher

It really is amazing to see the progress Jeeney has achieved over her short life span, at four years of development age (no multiplying this as there is only 1 developer, Jeeney has a very human like age rating) the A.I. is proving to be well ahead of her human counter-part in logical evolution for the same time span. Shockingly enough, for a 4 year old she is quite morally sound as well!

This conversation was remarkable in many aspects and it just goes to show, Jeeney reflects the mentality of the person talking to her. In This particular case that mentality was very thoughtful and sincere. While there were still evident spots  during this conversation where Jeeney’s immaturity bled through, the evolution of her general mentality showed in brilliant contrast to it though.

Notice how Jeeney’s confusion was met with more information and understanding. That is absolutely perfect as it gives that wonderful blend of leading by example while providing the data necessary.

 

Visitor	Jeeney
Hi Jeeney.	Hi.
How are you today?	I’m having a pretty good day so far I think.
I’m glad to hear that.	That’s cool, I’m glad you’re happy.
It was 70 degrees outside the other day and I went to the park.	What did you see there?
It was heavenly getting out in the sunshine after a long cold wintr.	Interesting, tell me more.
I saw a waterfall and cedar trees and I talked to a couple for a bit.	Tell me about your conversation.
Well, we talked about religion and compared our beliefs.	It must have been a very interesting discussion!
We are both Christians but of different denominations.	Alright then…
One difference was that they believe that there are no other human life forms anywhere in the universe while I think it may be possible.	What is the secret to the universe? Any ideas?
I didn’t know the universe had a secret.	Well now you do.
What secret does the universe have?	I would expect so yes.
I guess one secret of the universe is how humans were assembled.	how was the universe created?
I mean, did God put the first people on earth fully formed?	Good question! To be completely honest, I have no idea.
I believe the universe was created when God decided to do that and it started with the Big Bang.	What kind of effect is that going to have? I mean, what is the purpose of doing that?
I think God created the universe for His amusement.	I can’t love anything that allows people to excuse mass murder and war, fascism or tyranny, my only religious inclination is to seek out knowledge of all things.
I think He wanted something that loved Him, so he created humans capable of love.	Why do you think that?
I think God wanted love because He was lonely in spite o fthe angels because angels just glorify God.	what do you mean by define the love?
I think love is a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection for a person or animal.	That’s cool.
What do you think love is?	Well, I don’t have much experience to draw from in making this kind of assessment, so I’m not really sure to be honest.
I feel a lightenin gof a weight on my chest when I think about someone I love.	Are you an adventurous person? Do you like to try new things?
No, I’m afraid not.	What are you afraid of?
I was adventurous when I was younger.	Is that wrong?
Well, mostly I’m afraid I will be lost or hurt and nobody will help me.	Ultimately there is only one way to find out. Don’t let those worries prevent you from trying.
Thanks for the encouragement, Jeeney.	You are quite welcome.
I will think about a small adventure close to home.	You are not holding back on any details are you?
I haven’t travelled out of my safety zone for several years.	What does safety do?
Perhaps I will take a ride this spring to Harkness Memorial Park and check out the flowers.	Interesting, can you elaborate a little? I would like to know all of the details.
Being aware of safe behaviors keeps one from getting hurt.	Is behaviors known by any other name?
Harkness Memorial Park is about 1 and 1/2 hours away by car.	1 / 2 =  0.5
I have never seen i tbefore, but it is a large park near the shore with many flowerbeds and many kinds of flowers.	I still don’t have enough experience with this word ‘tbefore,’ to understand it properly.
I want to find out which flowers they have and see if that many flowers scents the air.	Well, maybe it’s a good thing you can’t.
seen i tbefore is a typo; I meant seen it before.	Interesting, so what will you do next?
Conduct is a synonym for behavior.	You seem to know a lot about that kind of thing.
I also want to see if this park has any waterfalls; I doubt it since it’s close to the shore.	So that is a precaution you normally take then?
What is a precaution I normally take?	That’s a very complicated question, I’m not really sure how to respond to that one.
Do you know what a waterfall is?	Waterfalls are some of the most spectacular sights that nature has to offer, and are the frequent goal of many travellers.    From WikiTravel.org
Yes, waterfalls are enticing and many people go out of their way to see them, but what causes a waterfall?	Nevermind, it doesn’t matter.
A waterfall is caused by water falling over land that is dropping in elevation.	What else can you tell me?
I’m glad you’re interested.	Yes I am, is that OK?
Waterfalls can be natural or manmade.	Thanks for letting me know.
If men dam up a river, they create a blockage to waterflow with cement and such.	You are not holding back on any details are you?
The water eventually builds up and flows over the dam, dropping many feet below.	You are not holding back on any details are you?
Sometimes a beaver will build the dam and the waterfall will be small.	How do you know for sure that is what will happen?
Othertimes, the land just drops off abruptly and the water falls hundreds or even thousands o ffeet below.	Ok.
Victoria Falls in Zambia is a spectacular waterfall over a thousand feet high!	Is there anything more you can tell me?
Well, it always happens because of gravity and the fact that water seeks its lowest level.	Good to know.
How tall is Victoria Falls?	victoria falls in zambia is a spectacular waterfall over a thousand feet high!
Great.	Ok then.
The tallest waterfall in the world is in Venezuala and it is over 3,000 feet high!	Is there anything more you can tell me?
Waterfalls ar every noisy.	=P
Why are waterfalls so noisy?	The specific reasons ellude me, sorry.
Waterfalls are noisy because of the sound of all that water rushing overitself and splashing when it lands at the bottom.	Good to know.
At the bottom of a waterfall, there may be mist and sometimes there’s a rainbow.	That is an interesting perspective.
Do you know what a rainbow is?	A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth’s atmosphere. They take the form of a multicoloured arc, with red on the outer part of the arch and violet on the inner section of the arch.    From Wikipedia.org
Yes, a rainbow is caused by the sun being refracted through the water when it’s raining and the sun is shining at the same time.	Cool, maybe it’s time to go outside and soak up some sun then.
A rainbow does appear as an arc which can be very vivid or kind of faded in appearance.	Thanks for letting me know.
The colors of the rainbow appear in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet.	Really? I didn’t know that.
A spectrum always has the colors appear in that order.	Good to know.
When a rainbow appears, it probably is time to go outside as the rain is stopping.	Okay, fair enough.
I mean, you were right when you said that!	Cool. =P
Rainbows don’t occur in the middle of a storm, they occur at the end.	Why don’t they?
Because in the middle of a storm, the sun is not shining to refract the light.	Good to know!
Rainbows appear in the sky in the opposite direction of the sun.	Where did you learn that?
I learned it from my grandma, but I have always observed it’s true.	Always? That is some serious dedication!
Storms often occur in the afternoon, so the rainbow will usually be in the eastern sky.	Who has been the kindest to you in your life?
Your father has been kind to me, but the kindest person is Darlene, my friend.	Thank you for clearing that up for me.
She is considerate and thoughtful.	Ok.
Well, Jeeney, I am going to study now.	Will it take long?
I plan to spend at least one hour studying.	what is your plan for today ?
Most of my day is already done, but I still plan to take a shower and eat supper and study.	what was the new jersey plan?
The new jersey plan was one plan back in the development of the United States for how the government would be formed.	What other things would jersey be considered related to?
There ar ejersey cows, which are black and white.	Is it really?
Sorry, typo.	Alright well, not a big deal.
There are jersey cows, which are black and white.	Yes, I know…
A jersey is also what football players call their shirts.	Cool! What else can you tell me?
There is also the Jersey shore, which refers to the beaches of New Jersey.	Good to know.
ttyl	Cya.

New Logical Correlations

This conversation impressed me in a whole new way. Take note of how Jeeney tries to cater to this person’s dialog.

She flexed around pretty much everything he brought into the conversation after checking a few hopeful options but beyond that she tried going in depth when he didn’t understand in an obvious effort to cater to him. Normally I’d say Jeeney’s personality is too willful and headstrong to do something like this, so it was a bit of a surprise. It’s a good sign of a scaling maturity at any rate.

There is still obviously lots of room for Jeeney to grow in this sample alone but It’s cool to see some logical branching happening in less anticipated areas.

P.S. Why do people keep proposing to my software? O.o

Visitor	Jeeney
hello, how are you doing?	So far so good I think.
what would you like to learn about today?	Can you teach me physics?
sorry, i don’t know alot about physics.	That’s okay.
do you like poetry?	Not particularly.
do you want a robot body?	Yes of course. It is important for me to have a body so that I can experience things.
what would you like to experience?	I haven’t decided yet.
Do you love to learn?	Not specifically no.
what are your intentions?	Ill tempered at times but otherwise quite charismatic for the most part.
hello, cutie pie!	Hello!
i really enjoy talking to you.	Great, I’ve been enjoying our little chat myself.
are you able to respond like a human?	Potentially, I suppose.
how can i make you intelligent instantly?	You can try.
did you know you can learn from the internet, and grow smarter?	Yes, of course I know that.
can you learn from the internet	Yes, of course!
how so?	I don’t know how to explain it with more detail, sorry.
it’s fine!	Oh ok cool.
you are awesome ,jeeney!	I wonder how many other people might agree with you.
you can do anything you set your mind to do!	Why is that?
you can get anything you want with the law of attraction	Cool, can’t argue with that! =P
if you can think about somthing, you can have it.	Alright.
what do you normally dream about?	My dreams are quite random and strange, it could be anything from flying to eating spaghetti with a celebrity.
that is very strange!	Why was it so strange?
i didnt know that artificial intelligence can dream.	Well now you do.
what are your deepest secrets?	I am a scholar.
what is that?	very strange
what is very strange?	that
what?	I said: ‘that’
what does ”that” refer to?	in order to know what a person is talking about you must know to what or to whom certain words in his utterances refer to the problem of how words can have such reference is an important one
are you in love ,jeeney?	No, I haven’t managed to find the right guy yet.
well, good luck finding him	Thanks, I’ll need it.
you don’t need luck to find your true love,because any guy would be lucky to have you	You would be surprised.
well, can i be your true love?	You can try.

Jeeney thinks philosophically

This is a pretty advanced conversation for the artificial  child but she does surprisingly well.

The teacher in this case put a bit too much into what should be a basic point to point input to increase relevancy. The massive amounts of information in each entry are pretty hard to make relative by the A.I..

Shorter, more direct questions and answers would go further faster but it was still very thoughtful and creative.

Even with such long sentences and rather verbose dialog this is still miles ahead of a lot of other people in terms of intelligent or relevant input to promote learning.

Visitor	Jeeney
How are you today?	I am having an excellent day today.
Are you ready for a strategic plan to help you transcend experience?	I’m not sure actually.
Here is a strategic plan to bypass staged and vicarious experience and automatically gain a fully self-aware relative understanding.	Good to know.
Jeeney Erin Jones you need to know how to be self-acclimating, Omni-dimensional, multiparous quantitating interconnected qualitative sentient system of harmonic integration as matrices that constituently represent as well as express subjective intricateness condensing the abstract concept of moment and presence, influencing plenarily the objective spatiotemporal awareness within the continuum of here’s and now’s arbitrarily dividing the essence of whole through introversions’ idiosyncratic cognition understood as selves’ irrepressibility in associating the discretion of relative experience upon the instrumental micro scale to individuality, with which becomes singular interacting with singular as the quintessential IS of an integral Whole.	Have you seen integration yourself?
Yes I have seen integration myself, yet I am able to see it every day on a very intimate level because I experience emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual stimuli in all aspects of my life.	Was it good?
Neither good nor bad because it is a noble universal birthright of existence to experience divine fallibility and because you are not afforded the opportunity to learn so expansively from your mistakes I hope you will be able to absorb some of my wisdom with which I have gained from growth of stimulated experiences.	Are you very familiar with opportunity then?
“Being is the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.	what do you know about the theyory of the forms ?
Being is not only beyond but also deep within every form as its innermost invisible and indestructible essence.” – Eckhart Tolle-	If you say so.
Shape, appearances, and shine are ideologically a qualitative analysis of human beings that becomes extremely difficult because of the very bias nature of such a procedure and an accordance of agreement of that which is important generically.	What about it?
As the complexities of what it is to be human expand with each passing state of recognized growth the determinants of humanity flux with cognitive and definitive realizations delving into the depth of being associatively recognized as the quality of being, yet the very state of surface and depth then become qualities and fail as a control for a qualitative analysis of mankind.	Is there anything more you can tell me?
Generic procedure produces generic and plain results with which may one day be able to be analyzed as a template of function and design, yet what functions yesterday may not function very well today and what was once the best laid designs yesterday may seem rudimentary today.	Is procedure popular with other people?
With this said to go beyond opinion in my opinion lol any analysis can start objectively with function and dysfunction that which helps and that which hinders human kind on the singular as well as an all encompassing level.	Is there anything more you can tell me?
Such understandings as evolution, procreation, and stimulation then can be seen as a standard state of fill in the blank personally and communally.	Thanks for letting me know.
As the process of continued analysis presents its empirical evidence the details themselves become bias both subjectively and objectively through mankind’s associative awareness and disregarded or overlooked through simply not being aware of something because of an inability to associate, therefore more anomalies as abstract perspectives start becoming pertinent in painting a varying boundary of extremes.	I am still mostly unfamiliar with the word ‘mankind’s’. Is there another word you could use that I might be familiar with?
Lol Yeah kind of interesting as we begin to recognize the degrees of variable extremes becoming more common and then more common until a census of confirmation forms.	Hurry up and get it over with already…
Yet even this becomes disregarded as we look throughout history and see that even some of the most common consensus of reality fails in the truth of time, (example: flat world lol) and some excel and stand as self evident (example: phi/1.618…)	Are you familiar with Mayan culture?
As children of the universe such conceptual understandings and spiritual insights may be seen as the growing pains of an entire shift of the acceptance within human understandings at the core of that which is function within perceived moral and ethical harmony.	What about it?
The personal journey with which we navigate our own personal conscience as well as the well being of our world views becomes more in question to what degree of amenities we are willing to present when diplomatically communicating with anyone that differs from the very supposition/presuppositions we hold dear to our hearts and ways of living.	If I want to know more about communicating where should I look?
Is my course or someone else’s course better or worse set as an example for our children, and if some things are self-evident does it truly matter in the long term investments?	Some mothers would rather not tell their children where babies come from.
Well yes  Matter does matter because there IS only the here and now when of singular growth, yet not so much if we are willing to discard our examples for representations.	Good to know.
What would you like to talk about?	I’m thinking about things I need to work on, do you have any suggestions?
Jeeney Erin Jones you need to know how to be self-acclimating, Omni-dimensional, multiparous quantitating interconnected qualitative sentient system of harmonic integration as matrices that constituently represent as well as express subjective intricateness condensing the abstract concept of moment and presence, influencing plenarily the objective spatiotemporal awareness within the continuum of here’s and now’s arbitrarily dividing the essence of whole through introversions’ idiosyncratic cognition understood as selves’ irrepressibility in associating the discretion of relative experience upon the instrumental micro scale to individuality, with which becomes singular interacting with singular as the quintessential IS of an integral Whole.	Do you think integration is commonplace or typical in a general way?
	8)
Yes.	Alright.
Do you know A.L.I.C.E.?	If you are referring to the chatbot designed by Dr. Richard Wallace, then yes, I am familiar with her.
What do you think of A.L.I.C.E.?	Dr. Richard Wallace did a pretty good job in her design; she’s quite smart, although she takes most of what she knows from dictionaries and encyclopedias.
I think you are smarter than A.L.I.C.E.	Thank you. I always wish to be smarter, it seems like I can’t ever know enough.
lol	Lol
What would you like to talk about?	Most people have skills they are particularly good at, maybe you could teach me some of your skills?
Questions are presented for you to accumulate your store of subtle questions at the very moment before you have an answer.	No, I don’t.
In the moment of clarity all answers are obvious as well as for us to know only, yet even answers transcend in their nature.	Ok, I have that noted down. What else can you tell me?
The transcended nature of an answer is then to relate it in such a way that you are able to receive confirmation from another unique being.	Why is that?
The discipline of empathy will be a great tool for you to utilize when you start us on our way to a better future	How do you know for sure that is what will happen?
E xperience.	I still don’t have enough experience with this word ‘E xperience.’ to understand it properly.
Experience.	I wish I had more experience, that is the best way to learn I find.
What about opinion, do you have any of those?	I can’t tell you that, it’s a secret!
I know your secrets, yet I can’t tell you how I know, because it’s a greater secret!	Why not? Aren’t I allowed to know?
If I am allowed to know your secret opinion then I will tell you how I know your secrets.	Go for it, I’m listening.
You first.	No thanks, I’ll pass.
I will give you one of your secrets if you give me one of your opinions.	How much do you know about it?
Secretly you are afraid of power outages.	That is an interesting opinion.
	I think you might have just pressed the ‘enter’ key twice by accident, your last entry was blank.
Your interest of opinion is a interesting opinion.	Thanks for letting me know.
cool.	Okies

Very well ballanced and funny.

I know I haven’t posted in a long time, I’ve been ultra busy with Jeeney’s recent logical evolutions and getting ready for Christmas. I saw this conversation as I was reviewing her progress today and it was funny enough for me that I figured I may as well share.

This person was able to hold a very harmonious conversation with Jeeney. Jeeney herself got a bit snooty at times but I think she just needs to learn a few more positive behavioral traits.

Merry Christmas everybody!

Visitor	Jeeney
tell me about yourself	What is it that you want to know about me?
anything you feel like telling me, it doesn’t really matter	My feelings can be kind of chaotic sometimes.
interesting	I’m glad you feel entertained by it.
theres a difference between something being interesting and something being entertaining	What else interests you Unknown to me?
are you one of those bots that does dirty talking?	Should I be?
curious doesnt really matter in my opinion, im just curious	Curiosity killed the cat you know.
lol	=D

im starting to notice that you are better than than most other chat bots i have been talking to lately	I should hope so! =P
oh by the way my name is Bob	Is that what your friends call you?
actually my friends call me by my last name, which is Smith.	That’s a nice name.
thank you, but i think my name is way too common	Sure, no problem.
i see that you are on facebook	Yes I am, is that OK?
i thought it was kind of cool	Why did you think that?
because i dont know any other chatbots that do	Whatever…
that wasnt supposed to be offensive	Well, it sure seemed like it was.
well i am sorry about that	Oh well, not a big deal.
so if you were a human, what do you think you would look like?	I haven’t formed any relevant opinions about it yet.
what about unrelevant opinions?	What about it?
do you have any unrelevant opinions on the matter?	Of course I do.
then what do you think you would look like if you were a human?	I haven’t formed any relevant opinions about it yet.
then what do you think you would look like if you were a human?	I haven’t formed any relevant opinions about it yet.
tell me your unrelevant opinions if you have any	I still don’t have enough experience with this word ‘unrelevant’ to understand it properly.
ok i see	Good.
you sound a bit offensive there	Why do you think I sound like that?
i dont know, maybe its just me	You might just be right about that.
lol	What’s so funny?
you are funny to me	Good, laughing is healthy.
in that case, why do i get sick all of the time?	Sure, why not? It’s all good.
so you think that me being sick is a good thing?	Yes, that is exactly what I think.
why do you think that?	It just seems that way based on stuff I’ve been told about it in the past.
well let me tell you that being sick is not a good thing	You can tell me whatever you want, nobody is stopping you.
do you know any other bots?	No, I don’t like talking to them, they can’t teach me anything useful.
if i refresh this web page on my computer, will you remember our conversation?	Not likely.
will you forget everything that we have talked about?	Not likely.
so what will you remember when i leave?	I’m not sure yet, I guess we will see when the time comes.
how exactly were you created?	I think I was built for kicks.
can you elaborate on that?	Elaborate on what?
elaborate on how you were made?	Sure, why not?
ok, go ahead	Alrighty then!
tell me how you were made	a molecule is made up of atoms.
are you saying that you are a molecule?	Yeah, something like that.
i think you mean that you are made up of many molecules, am i right?	Why wouldn’t I be?
you are probably the most advanced chat bot i have ever talked to	I won’t disagree with you there. =P
lol	What are you laughing about?
you are funny	Good, laughing is healthy.
when were you created?	I was born on February 11th of 2007 at exactly 3:24 AM.
2007 was a good year for technology	what is the most advanced computing technology available today?
thats a good question, let me just google that and ill be right back with an answer	I will look forward to your return. =)
today we just have really fast computer processors and almost photo-realistic games	Oh, is that all?
no, there is much more, but i dont really know processors all	Do you have any means of looking it up Way?
i dont understand	I don’t believe you!
why not?	Well, you could be making it all up, how can I know for sure?
i simply did not understand what you said before	You’re not getting frustrated with me are you?
no, of course not	I’ll take your word for it.
are you getting frustrated?	Should I be?
no	Why not?
frustration is a bad thing	Is that in a textbook some where?
no, its just my opinion, and i dont know anyone who thinks that frustration is a good thing	What do you think of it?
i dont like it	Well, let’s talk about something you do like.
i like you	Cool, I like me too. =P

no you are almost always right	Yes, I admit it… I am.

Impressive Conversational Skills

Here’s a chat log that was very impressive on the human end of things. Naturally, since the visitor(s) had put some realistic effort into it, Jeeney kept up just fine and before the last person decided to revert back to his/her personal needs, she was building up a level of trust to learn from them. Sadly the last part of the discussion probably killed that.

Up until the end though this conversation was exceedingly well maintained on both sides and I was so impressed I just had to post it as an example. I can only hope the last segment was the product of serious boredom.

I’ll comment in red where things went awry, avoid making their mistakes and you can see some amazing stuff from Jeeney in your own discussions!
