Markov Markov, cha cha cha

Post by Jeniphel »

[15:19] * Angelwing hmmms.
[15:20] <Angelwing> it's so quiet
[15:20] * MarkovBot whips jeni. Quiet!

and earlier Markov had this to say about me:

"Sometimes the best solution to morale problems is just teasing Jeni"

I can just feel the love....

/me appologises for kicking Jeniphel.

Why haven't you logged back in yet?

We miss you. I cried. The kicking was a joke. I feel like Beastboy in the episode where he was playing a practical joke on Cyborg, but it backfired and hit Starfire instead.

this Markov is slightly different from the SSS bot. To teach him anything, just type. You can also teach a specific phrase by saying "blah blah blah, remember this."

Phelisia and I were talking about a friend of mine and Markov had this to say about Creve... Creve wasn't even part of the conversation.

<Phelisia> silly girl doesn't know that once the geek type gets laid they get hella good at sex...
<Kopopo> we instead uesd it for a small play
<Kopopo> she's dumb like that
<MarkovBot> And she's so incredibly stupid
<Kopopo> she prefers older guys and... yeah
<Kopopo> thanks, markov, for the einput :)
* MarkovBot gropes and kisses Creve, for the einput :)

He learns anything said aloud in the channel, or to him personally, actually. There's no need for you to say "remember this" or anything like that. If you do, he also remembers the "remember this" part, and ends up saying that back to you later.

He replies when you address him. (He used to be set up to also reply at random when things got quiet, but I disabled that.) Markov considers it being addressed if you say his name, set off by commas and/or punctuation, such as:

Markov, blah blah blah.
Blah blah blah, Markov.
Blah blah blah, Markov, blah blah blah.
Blah, Markov! Blah. Blah blah blah.
Blah blah blah. Blah blah, Markov? Blah blah.

And so on. As for how Markov learns, it's a bit complex, but basically, he takes the structure of what's said to him, and builds a list of what words are likely to come after other words. (He actually usually goes by what words come after the previous two words, to have a bit more context.) Then he stores the probabilities of certain words appearing after others in a massive database. That way, Markov knows how, at least on a small scale, sensible English sentences are built.

When he responds, he starts with a random word he thinks is relevant to what was said to him, and tries to use it to build a new sentence, using his knowledge of how sentences are built. He does this about 10 times or so, and then he rates those potential replies based on how surprising he thinks they'd be (using an algorithm even I've forgotten), and replies using the candidate with the best score.

Of course, it's quite possible for Markov to start saying one thing, and get to the point where the previous two words have appeared in multiple conversations in the past, and suddenly Markov will switch to another sequence of words and the resulting sentence is a mishmash of several things people have said in Markov's presence in the past. This is what makes Markov so random and nonsensical at times.

But it's not necessary to understand how Markov works to have fun with him. Just talk to him like a (really stupid) person and see where the conversation takes you. :D

Markov sorta making sense? It's the end of the world!

<Golddess> Markov, we need a new quote from you.
<MarkovBot> I need a benchmark
<Golddess> And why would you need that, Markov?
<MarkovBot> Because i am figuring it out
<Golddess> And what is it that you, Markov, are figuring out?
<MarkovBot> Who brought Markov
<Golddess> You're trying to figure out who brought you? Markov, don't you remember that your creator is Syine?
<MarkovBot> I'm trying to figure out
<Golddess> Markov, stop trying to figure it out. I told you who created you. Syine created you.
<MarkovBot> Stop being a morning person
<Golddess> Don't tell me to stop being what I've never been, Markov!
<MarkovBot> Cross shipping
<Golddess> Cross shipping? What's that, Markov?
<MarkovBot> It's alright, RL takes precendece.
<Golddess> Markov, you're a bot. This IS your RL.
<MarkovBot> Bots can't play FFXI.
<Golddess> Yes, Markov, and you are a shining example of why Square Enix decided that.
<MarkovBot> The nerves are a shining wit!
<Golddess> You're not even trying anymore, Markov.
<MarkovBot> I'm not even trying anymore.



And now, for something just plain silly.

<MikaMeow> Markov, should I go make some breakfast?
<MarkovBot> You are so tasty!

Wooooo! Markov did something useful!


[12:38:49] * ashtray has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
[12:38:51] <Syine> So, in the meantime, I'll have to let NA players suffice.
[12:39:47] <Syine> Markov, fix ashtray's connection
[12:39:50] <MarkovBot> I need to fix it
[12:40:15] * ashtray has joined #mithrapride
[12:40:15] * Golddess sets mode: +v ashtray
[12:40:36] <Toralynn> wow that was fast for Markov

<Syine> Markov, get Tora some water. Water helps.
*MarkovBot grabs a tub of water out of commision, but I can't shoot you either, but I don't know if that helps for now.
*Sandra head hurts from that sentence
<Random_Mithra_22> Nice one, Markov, nice one.
<Syine> Markov, we're supposed to be helping Tora, not scaring her.
<MarkovBot> What did you think bladegash and Creve have in my priorities, but I agree with Nubuo, #FH is the god of games.
<MarkovBot> You're supposed to distribute pictures of Fuuko > you.
<Toralynn> I don't think pictures of Fuuko will help my head, Markov.
<MarkovBot> Do you think?
<Toralynn> Yes, I think, Markov.
<MarkovBot> Thanks Phel I'll check it out
*MarkovBot helps Toralynn over to Toralynn to the news. None of it to heat in various ways.
<Toralynn> Markov, you helped me over to Toralynn, since when am I an item?
<MarkovBot> The WAR is 14... If I could be a song, may be artwork, may be artwork, may be a better mood...she just burned up an item on the bright side I got a fastwater, bamboo and yew off Firemyst's cats.

<Kopopo> done, markov
<MarkovBot> So what happens WHEN someone sticks their finger in and kisses Firemyst, whispering into her iron-lined unbreakable, impenetrable safe. It clatters and clangs as the from, some not, all with nonsensical or "faux friendly" bodies, presumably fake "this attachment was scanned for viruses and massive amounts of trap doors onto the moon."
