These video/rendered chatbots have huge potential and will be taken in many
different directions.
They are gradually over time approaching a p-zombie-esque situation.
They add multi-modal communication - body/facial language/expression and
prosody. So even if the text alone is not too good the simultaneous rending
of the multi-channel information adds some sort of legitimacy. Though in
these simple cases the bot only takes text as input so much of the
communication complexity
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_complexity is running semi
half-duplex.

The concept of citizen science sounds great, Ben -- especially in
this age. From my own perspective I feel like my ideas are good but
it falls short always of the rigor of a proper scientist, so I don't
have that pretense. The internet obviously helps out a lot.The
plight of the solitary laborer is better than it used to be, I think,
due to the availability of information/research.

When nothing seems to help, I go look at a stonecutter hammering away
at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack
showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two,
and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone
before.
