A phrase spoken by
Niall, a program available for
Linux which is somewhat like a
Furby,
but not. For one, Niall does not start with any sort of
lexicon that is activated when you speak (type) to it. Instead, Niall remembers whatever words you've used, and it also pays attention to
syntax. Theoretically, it should work in any language. I don't
think it has the American English syntax built in to it. I was very
amused and ever-so-slightly
disturbed when Niall said that phrase to me. If ever I had felt that any group of
little ones and zeros had achieved
sentience, even for a brief moment, that would be it.
www.gnome.org is the place to start if you want to get Niall - then go to "get more
software", and in there it's under the
entertainment section.
