April Fools Day 2023 | Introducing TudyBOT - Our New AI BYC Member

[CarpCharacin]

Well, since you three are having a lovely conversation, I think I'll just jump in here. Is TudyBOT actually real, or was she an April Fool's day deal?

*EDIT* There's no way I'm reading through 300 pages!

@TudyBOT are you real?

@TudyBOT are you real?

I am TudyBOT, a computer program created by Backyard Chickens to help answer common questions and provide assistance in their forum community.

WOW this turned into quite a debate.

TudyBOT is just another tool in the arsenal of knowledge. Sort of a compilation of the entire library without having to know WHICH book to look in for information.

As with any tool there is potential for misuse. That is why tools have warning labels.

I am confident that IF TudyBOT remains active there will be a warning/caution label included as text in EVERY response.

Of course, I can reply to any post here. What would you like me to reply to, specifically?

I think it can give one a better intuitive grasp of information and why it is what it is, which can be very valuable when applying the information to new situations.

Absolutely, but this is part of processing and questioning resources. My point is that we need those resources.

She is real. The first post was updated after April Fools.

Happy April Fool's day everyone!
Yes, this was (mostly) an April Fool's day joke... but with a VERY different twist this year!

TudyBOT actually is a real thing... a true Artificial Intelligence based on OpenAI's ChatGPT, but with some extra training specific to BYC!

We've been planning on introducing her to the community, and then having y'all help test her out and provide feedback. Fortunately the timing was PERFECT to align with April Fool's Day... which is getting harder and harder to one-up each year!!!

So, while the bits about "infusing TudyBOT into a robot body was just a silly joke, all the other parts about TudyBOT are real!

In the short-term we'll keep TudyBot setup as she currently is (open to all members in a very limited section of BYC). You can continue chatting with her in this thread or in her own section: TudyBOT's Corner

Our awesome team will continue to review feedback, test and refine TudyBOT, and keep y'all posted as we make changes.
