Robot Soul

Mark Marino, botmaster, blogger, and Ph.D. candidate at the University of California, Irvine, currently does a study among chatbot-users and -designers and invites everybody who has ever chatted with a bot to share the experience.

Calling all: Chatbot users and Chatbot Makers

If you have used or have built chatbots, or conversational agents, please participate in my online study of these research communities and their priorities. (Chatting with Non-Player Characters in video games counts here, too).

I am looking to get a sense of who make bots, who use them, and in what ways. The questions will only take a few minutes to answer, but participants can return to participate in ongoing discussions.

To participate, go to: http://wrt.ucr.edu/wordpress/chatbot-survey/

The study will continue until October 15.

This is a confidential study. Please see the site for information about privacy and participation.
