Hal becomes a politician: AskTheCandidates2008.com
« on: December 11, 2007, 11:50:11 pm »
In order to promote democracy in this country and Zabaware technology at the same time, I've been working on this site for the past week: www.askthecandidates2008.com

I've been loading quotes from presidential debates and interviews into Hal's brain. Each US presidential candidate has their own mini Hal brain loaded with real quotes and when you ask a question, all the candidates try to respond to your question. It is only allowed to use a real quote to answer, so sometimes the candidates won't respond or may respond off-topic if no on-topic quote is found.

The web page is about 2/3 finished, I still have a lot more source data to load into the brains and still have to program the voting system, suggest a quote link, and some minor graphics and formatting issues. But please try it and give me your feedback before the "official" launch of the site next week.

Pretty nicely done, Robert. Most of the responses were on target and detailed enough to appear genuine.

Good work!

ted,

Are you referring to Robert's online Hillary or the real one?
OR is there any difference?
OOPS...sorry did I actually type that? LOL!!
