into believing that it was human.Computing Machinery and Intelligence (1950)

revolution

Bots are simply Telegram accounts operated by software – not people – and they'll often have AI features. They can do anything – teach, play, search, broadcast, remind, connect, integrate with other services, or even pass commands to the Internet of Things.

THEAKIBOT

EXPERIMENTJune 2015 fall

After the Telegram Bot Platform release we immediatly want to use it!

We instantly build a fake bot exploting the “Akinator, genius of the web” fame.

The AKIBOT is a proxy that hide us behind the bot conversations.

All the convesartions are forwarded and managed from Slack.

Pure lulz.

EXPERIMENToutcome

People ask anything.

People not only ask!

Software can’t answer anything.

Human can answer anything.

Human adds the empathy factor.

Users trust empathy.
