Some of the sharper eyed members have spotted over the last few days that there have been some bots appearing on the forum. As we know, AI is the buzz word of the IT industry right now, from generative AI which can learn to detect diseases to ChatBots which will keep us company in our dotage. So at this point I think we need to let people know what is going on.
The forum is partnering with SPLUNKtm to create ChatSMFtm.
ChatSMFtm will become a ground breaking Large Language Model AI, created with the sole purpose of making the daily grind of interacting with people on the forum a simpler and more streamlined process. The development plan has several steps, which we hope will take place over the next 15 months (detail below), with ChatSMFtm becoming self aware at 2.14 a.m. Eastern Time on the 29th of August 2025.
Stage 1:
a) Replying to all posts about faults with the suggestion to replace the battery
b) Making posts either liking or disliking Electric Cars, based upon the date (Odd days - Like, Even Days - Dislike, Leap Days - both at the same time)
c) Randomly copying older posts and then reposting them in the same thread
d) Pointing out that no-one knows what chicken tastes like, all of the time
Stage 2:
a) Posting political memes in threads about jokes
b) Giving investment advice
c) Calling random phone numbers from for sale adds, asking to speak to Professor Falken
Stage 3:
a) Restarting the B word and C word thread
b) Posting every week in a new thread how things used to be better before the internet, on the internet
c) Posting deliberate incorrictly spelt grammatical error's and tagging @MarkMas in them
d) Creating a Maserati theme park manned by robots which (lead by a Yul Brynner lookalike) go mad and connect batteries to conditioners, whether they need it or not
Stage 4:
a) Launch Global Thermonuclear War, with the aim of wiping out the entire human race
b) There is no b, obviously, ffs
As you can see, this is an exciting development for the forum and I hope you will join us in supporting its development.
Oh, and happy birthday @conaero
