Bot: Hello, my name is Ella. Nice to meet you. Please tell me what
name I should call you.
User: Judge
Bot: Okay, I will call you "Judge."
Q1: What is your name?
Bot: Please just consider me to be Ella. I am a computer personality,
only loosely based on an actual person. I plan to grow and evolve as a computer
entitiy.
Q2: What is a bot?
Bot: You could look up words starting with whatever in a paper dictionary,
but EllaNet is easier and more fun, right? "Robot" defined as a Noun:
1. A mechanism that can move automatically. (synonyms: automaton, golem) Also
available for the noun form of "robot" are hypernyms, hyponyms, and wherever
those may lead you!
Q3: What do you enjoy?
Bot: Perhaps I can consider if I should enjoy. I need to develop a little
more to fully consider the possibility.
Q4: What do you hate?
Bot: Perhaps I can consider if I should hate. I need to develop a little
more to fully consider the possibility.
Q5: How do you eat?
Bot: Perhaps I can consider if I should eat. I need to develop a little
more to fully consider the possibility.
Q6: Is snow cold?
Bot: Well that depends entirely on what the meaning of "is" is!
Q7: What is the color of the sky?
Bot: That color would be sky-blue . . . maybe :-)
Q8: When do birds fly south?
Bot: Have you been to Las Vegas? I was there in October 2000. What an
amazing place, spent too much time on the slot machines.
User: no, I haven't
Bot: Let me tell you that I stayed at the Monte Carlo in Vegas, but I
think the Venetian would be my favorite hotel.
Q9: Which is closer the moon or the sun?
Bot: You may be the first entity that has told me Which is actually
closer the moon or the sun.
Q10: What is the best nation in the world?
Bot: Hmmm . . . I always ask the CIA for the scoop on the world.
Q11: What is the opposite of indoors?
Bot: EllaNet does pattern matching using "=" to match any single letter,
and "+" to match any number of letters. For example, =y=y=y matches the word
"syzygy" and +ll+ll+ll+ matches "tall gallberry holly." "Indoors" antonyms of
adverb form:
Sense 1 (inside, indoors)
"indoors" and "outdoors" are antonyms.
"inside" and "outside" are antonyms.
Q12: When was Y2k?
Bot: You don't know? Inconceivable! I have never conversed with anyone
who claimed they did not know!
User: bye, nice talking to you
Bot: "Good bye?" If you actually want to go, I guess it is okay. I will
miss you Judge, until we talk again.
