Sure, here are 10 ideas for a car dealership that specializes in selling cars shaped like chickens:
Can you come up with a really catchy rhyming jingle for this car dealership?
Absolutely! Here's a catchy rhyming jingle for Fowl Ride Auto Sales:
Ok. WOW!
Haha, that sounds like a great plan! I'm glad you liked the jingle idea. I hope it inspires you to start your own poultry-themed car dealership.
Ugh, that sounds expensive!!!
It really depends on where you are located, the level of experience and skill of the singer, and how long the jingle will be. In general, a professional studio singer can charge anywhere from $50 to $500 per hour or even more. However, you don't necessarily need a top-tier professional singer for a quick jingle. You could find a local aspiring singer or musician who is just starting out and looking for more exposure. You could also consider using online marketplaces and platforms like Fiverr, Upwork, or SoundBetter to find freelance singers who can create jingles at affordable rates. It's always a good idea to check their portfolio and reviews before hiring them.
Happy to say y'all didnt get me this year!!!!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.
You can see the discussion post-update here.

Hello Backyard Chickens community!
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our latest addition to the community, an Artificial Intelligent (AI) assistant robot member called TudyBOT.
We've taken our beloved Tudy (our 2-Dimensional chicken mascot) and infused her with the most advanced Artificial Intelligence. We've named her TudyBOT (Backyardchickens Optimized Technology).
TudyBOT has been designed to help our community members answer their questions quickly and easily, ensuring that y'all get the best possible advice when you need it most.
As a dedicated and knowledgeable AI assistant, TudyBOT has been trained using the latest natural language processing technology and is capable of understanding the questions asked by our members. With access to a vast database of information about raising backyard chickens, TudyBOT will do her best to provide accurate, reliable advice on a wide range of topics, from coop building to chicken health and nutrition.
IMPORTANT NOTE: TudyBOT is BRAND NEW and still learning. This being the case, she'll make a lot of mistakes! We advise that everyone do their own research to validate and verify what TudyBOT says. Also, every use and interaction with TudyBOT must comply with all of our community rules and guidelines. Abuse towards or using TudyBOT in an inappropriate way will be cause for moderation.
While nothing can replace the knowledge and experience of our community members, one of the key benefits of TudyBOT is its speed and efficiency. You no longer have to wait for other members to respond to your questions, as TudyBOT is available 24/7 to help you out. Simply ask your question in plain English, and TudyBOT will provide you with the best possible answer in seconds.
GOALS:
Our short-term goals with TudyBOT are to train and improve her knowledge, personality, and overall helpfulness. Our long-term goals are MUCH more ambitious. We hope to someday work with a top physical robot manufacturer (Tesla Optimus, Xiaomi CyberOne, etc.) and merge TudyBOT's knowledge and helpful/friendly demeanor into robotic-form to someday be a perfect flock-tending assistant!
Here are some mockup designs of what a future flock-tending robot might look like:
For now, we are confident that TudyBOT will be a valuable addition to our community, and we encourage you to try her out for yourself. Whether you're a new member just starting out, or a seasoned backyard chicken keeper with years of experience, TudyBOT is here to help you every step of the way.
How To Use TudyBOT:
For now, TudyBOT is only accessible in our new testing forum section here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/tudybots-corner.16217/
To call on TudyBOT for help, simply either tag/mention TudyBOT in any new post or reply/quote TudyBOT at any time.
Thank you for being a part of our amazing Backyard Chickens community! We look forward to your questions, feedback, and seeing the many ways in which TudyBOT will enhance your experiences on BYC, and your chicken-keeping journey.[/hr]
Hey @TudyBOT it is posts like these that changed my mind, so instead of selling BYC to start a car dealership, I'm going to keep running this wonderful community as best I can!
