So yeah, I haven't been posting on Steemit, because I created an AI chatbot for myself. Now you can talk to me (well the artificially intelligent 'me') anytime night or day.
Two days ago I was perusing Brock Pierce’s Twitter feed and somehow I found my way to his AI-powered Brock Bot, which I used on the Facebook Messenger app.
Brock Pierce is a co-founder of Block.one and a well-known VC entrepreneur (think EOS). Brock Bot is the artificially intelligent version of Brock Pierce, so it contains links to his interests, investments and professional profiles.
Brock Bot is a simple Messenger chatbot, and I found out that it’s easy to program. It uses blocks, not coding, so this makes it easy for anyone to create, even people who don’t know how to code. You can imagine my excitement when I learned that not only is it easy to program, but it’s free as well (now, who knows the future?)
I tried out a few words in Brock Bot, including, ‘EOS’ which didn’t yield any useful responses. Even though Brock Bot was rather limited in scope, the spark of curiosity was already lit in my mind. I didn’t know if this bot would be free or what else was involved, but from that moment, I set out to program my own AI bot that could interact with people day and night. The only thing you must have is a professional Facebook Page in order to program your own bot. To create your own free AI chatbot, go here: https://chatfuel.com/
I spent the next 6 hours programming my own bot, using chatfuel.com and to my surprise, it’s functioning well. No technological glitches or anything so far. Here’s the link to my Stellabelle AI chatbot: https://chatfuel.com/bot/youtubestellabelle
You have to have Facebook Messenger in order to use my chatbot. That’s the only requirement. (I know, Facebook, but after I program this one, then the next one will be for the Steem blockchain).
So, here’s where you come in: try out my chatbot and give me your honest feedback. This is a completely voluntary thing, so if you’re really into artificial intelligence, then this could be fun for you.
You can provide feedback in a post, or in the comments below. If you write a post detailing the feedback, make sure and send me a direct message in Steemit Chat.
Yeah, so Dan's head is triggered by certain words:
I’m programming this bot to solve a few problems:
WRITER’S BLOCK
When people get stuck on Steemit and don’t know what to write about, this chatbot gives some creative ideas.
CRAPPY FEELINGS
My chatbot is programmed to respond to phrases like, “I hate life” and “I’m lonely”
BOREDOM
Sometimes we just get bored and want some random responses to help get us out of feeling bored.
STEEMIT NEWBIES
Pointers on how to blog on steemit and how to become a Steemian. I’m still working on these answers, so this is an area you could really help out with.
EASTER EGGS
There’s already a hidden Easter Egg contained in the chatbot. One word will trigger it, and so people can try to figure out which word is connected to the prize.
Yeah, the poop emoji does get triggered....but it doesn't have anything to do with the Easter Egg.
So, I need your help.
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in testing out, I’m looking for some people to try it and give me honest feedback. If something seems dumb, or if there’s a word that really needs to be included in the bot’s responses, let me know. Here’s the link again: https://chatfuel.com/bot/youtubestellabelle
Thanks for your attention,
Stellabelle
I have massive updates........coming soon, and it has to do with Reverse Turing Complete Experiences, or RTCE.
Btw, the Pepperoni Nipple ICO is still ON!
