good morning!
ei is you again haha, hows it going man
doing good how are you doing
where are you from? I just came back to this chat and people are going crazy here I really want to get an Ipad but people are going crazy on this chat haha what is your position not on the line?
positin on the line? like the leaderboard?
yes
I am in the top 20 haha you?
nice haha probabably around that too
yeah some people really want those prizes
not a lot of people are doing this challenge it seems like, but there are a few people that are going crazy one it
or really loves this chit chat thing yeah they are competing just with each other haha
the guy on the numeber is like on the 5 million points
its fun to watch their scores go up and down hes about to hit 6 million....
haha well I hope i want to get up high like that but maybe not, these people have no live haha
hahahaha
*life serious, what do they do of their lives to get up too 6 million, nothing I guess haha
hahaha well think about it though
what time is your church today?
if you are going for the mac book pro its like 2500 bucks so if you do this full like for 2 weeks then its more than I make in 2 weeks hahahahaha
true, I guess it is worth it to chat for it 2500 in a macbook pro would be awesome to get hahaha true those prizes are awesome for this challenge, this people are going ham for it, is this company a BYU stat up? it is amazing how BYU has money for all these stuff do you use this chat on your phone too, or only on your computer? I guess this people uses on their phones too, I only use on my comoputer
i just get on it on my computer its easier to type yeah BYU has some money for it but if BYU wins this ALexa contest that Amazon put out then they will win a million bucks for the school so I think they can blow 5000 buck on this to get people to chat hahaha you still there?
yeah, on the computer it is way easier to type alexa contest.? what is that?
you know the Alexa right?
sorry, I am listening to a general conference talk, so Im a little bit distracted yes, I know alexa from amazon right?
no worries yes that so Amazon want to make Alexa be able to communicate like a real human being instead of lets say like Siri. So they put out this contest to colleges to help them make a better Artificail intelligence and if the college wins they get a million dollars that is why this chit chat challenge is going on so that the BYU can log these chats and make Alexa learn
wait, let me see if I understood so amazon is trying to make alexa more human and more natual
yes
so there is a contest for all the colleges in the US to maka that happen
yes pretty neat huh?
and how is this chat related to alexa? how it will help alexa to learn?
through machine learning
everytime we say something they record and save it?
yes it saves it and byu's version of alexa will be able to learn it
wow so thats why they have questions right on the beggining of the chat or this is just to star a conversation??
well I think its just to start a meaningful converstaion going rather than people just having small talk and then leaving you know?
yeah that make sense, im  still blown away for all this alexa thing this is amazing, I didnt know that how did you figure that out
I read about it on their facebook page because I found out about this there
oh I see you didnt get an email from BYU inviting to participate?
no i didn't haha
I see I;m still trying to figure out how to change my name on this chat, this is the only thing they didnt think to do how to change peoples names
maybe you can email them I think that is the only way why don't you like your name?
I did email them, now I just waiting for their answer I do like my name, I just don't want my full name showing
dope. yeah that is kind of scary
it is actually against the rules of the chat to share the last name at least everyone here are BYU students even though that can be a little bit scary
yeah but don't trust them haha
we never know how weird BYU students can be haha
theres been a lot of theft going on at BYU
really?
so... yeah
what kind ? people stealing stuff?
laptops. my girlfriends stools that she made in her class. laptop chargers. Hydroflasks you name it bicycles
wow that doesnt surprise me we think that BYU students are all good people, but not really ok man, I got to get going, my church starts at 1 Im going to start getting ready have a good sunday
