Input: "The voltage on transistor Q1 emitter should read 3.5 volts"

Output:

"The voltage on transistor Q1 emitter should read 3.5 volts. Set voltage of transistor Q1 to 2.5 volts. With the voltage from transistor Q1 set to 1.5 volts, pull transistor Q1 clockwise until power is pulled low, or transistor is out of circuit. Pull transistor Q1 clockwise to reset voltage and pull power back up. With the voltage from transistor Q1 set to 2.5 volts, pull transistor Q1 counterclockwise until power is pulled low, or transistor is out of circuit.

Replace your jumper in the circuit by one labeled with 1V. Then replace it in the main power circuit and power up your microcontroller.

Note: Be sure the LED is on until your controller has finished powering up. The blinking lights should not be in a bad or high state. If it is, you are in the final stage of the firmware release.

Note 2: This will only work with microcontroller A0412C-9BK. If you are using any other version of A0412C-9BK, you will need to take out the resistor."

In a decade or so there will probably be AI phishing call bots that call you up and sound just like your son, sister, father, wife, whatever and try to chat with you for a while before seeing if they can get some useful data from you

There's already one from 1966 that could pretend to be your spychiatrist. Ooh, an appropriate typo. Eliza, and therapist not psych. Convincing for a short while, but soon loses the plot. Nevertheless it convinced many that it was human.

Parry was another.

Eliza modeled a Rogerian phsychotherapist, Parry modeled a paranoid patient .

Parry had the easier job.

Some program in Texas spent years on getting enough real-world knowledge in to a conversational data-base to let it sound more or less human. It seems to have been shut down before it had enough - as they got closer "enough" k ept on growing faster than they could get money to keep feeding it.

Oh yes, I have it on some PC. Uh, this PC

There is also tempest_for_eliza-1.0.5 on this PC, a totally different thing,

quote from the README:

What is it ?

------------

Tempest for Eliza is a Program that uses your computer monitor to send out AM radio signals. You can then hear computer generated music in your radio.

this document first describes tempest for eliza, the old program that plays music like your cellphone does when you get a phonecall. then it describes tempest for mp3 which you can use to play mp3 files :-)

How does this work ?

--------------------

All electronic devices send out eletromagnetic waves. so does your monitor. and your monitor does it all the time. and at very high frequencies. high enough for your short wave AM radio. all you have to do is display the "correct" image on your screen and your monitor will emit the "right" signals. Tempest for Eliza displays pictures on your screen. one for each note in the song.

[Note: Markus G. Kuhn's and Ross J. Anderson's paper; "Soft Tempest: Hidden Data Transmission Using Electromagnetic Emanations" was used as a reference when programming Tempest-AM. This paper is a must read before going further testing Tempest-AM. The paper is availabe from

I strongly recommend to read the paper thoroughly.]

You can probably google for tempest_for_eliza-1.0.5.tar.gz (a Linux program) my download is dated 2007...

This one's trained neural network can perhaps unsurprisingly automatically generate grammatically and semantically correct, entirely novel, anti-Semitic conspiracy theory essays simply from the input text prompt "The jews"

After Eliza starts her back talk sometimes the human side of the conversation devolves into simple minded cussing. At that point losing the plot becomes superfluous. Back in the day pranksters used to run chatbots on usenet. The perl source is at

Thank you, 73,
