The SCUM Communications Brigade SolanasBot03 is running on Heroku, and tweeting minifestos every 15 minutes.
For some reason, it has a fascination with Cherokees, States-General, and delenda.
I’m really at a loss, there…
For the morbidly curious, here’s the source. Needs work. PROOF OF CONCEPT!
I’ll have to dig into this over lunch.
The Cherokees and Small (and States-General) issue was resolved [it was a wordnik thing].
I’ve added a bunch of new templates.
And, joy! The first tweet after restarting:
Every man, deep down, knows he’s a knee-high neo-Nazi of self-awareness.
An interesting site for you - has links to a variety of Eliza versions in its Classics page (and a whole bunch more).

Thank you! I was looking for this kind of thing recently, but missed this. I didn’t know about “chatterbot” nomenclature so I think I was looking for “natural language processors” or some such thing.
This is relevant to my interdasts!
This is interesting. I’d never have thought you’d set up a Twitter bot like this.
I’m vaguely thinking about whether I could code something in Perl and SQlite, though what I’d do it for, I’m not sure.
Communicating with sock puppets, maybe? There’s a version of Eliza to try out here: Eliza (elizabot.js). It doesn’t come across as very smart if your conversational style is a bit offbeat (a problem which might be somewhat better handled in other versions), which doesn’t say a lot for Glorious GG Leader’s intelligence if he had a protracted conversation with the bot before he “wised up”.
Mind you, as I pointed out to a concern troll in another thread, it doesn’t take a lot of brains to set up a clusterf*ck like GG and keep it rolling. Quite the contrary - it takes a frightening stupidity.
I can’t quite trace my steps, but I got from MegaHAL to here: Ai links - the ex-Chief Scientist was the chap who wrote MegaHAL.
In my limited experience, it’s better to code something up first, and find a reason for it later. If you wait for inspiration to strike, you’re never prepared. I spent much of that past year wondering what I would do, and then finally jumped on the Solanasbot to fulfill the promise of a joke.
For those of you interested in generating text, but maybe not botting it,think about participating in NaNoGenMo2014 - National Novel GENERATING Month 2014. Spend the month writing code to write a 50,000-word “novel” (where “novel” := 50,000 words).
Lest we forget: Sherman T. Botter
To Do: Create a Peter BossHoggian twitter bot.
I almost understand this one.

This is nice to see
Gets better:
Bots 1 and 2 have been down for several months as the authentication method they used for Twitter has been deprecated. I can either rewrite them as smarter bots, or update them.
I have done neither.
Update the bots to produce gifs for the Misandry index.
Misandry!
I bot that for a dollar?
