RE: [agi] New KurzweilAI.net site... with my silly article sillier chatbot ;-p ;) ....

2010-07-12 Thread John G. Rose
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.
