Improve a Chatbot A1 Generated Content Response

Improve a Chatbot A1-generated content response for this month’s writing prompt.

Currently, we are hearing so much about chatbots and A1-generated content. It is software to generate human-like written paragraphs, essays, reports, and even books. Oh, my. It sounds mysterious and scary at the same time. There is debate about this capability, but it isn’t going away. Don’t know what it is? You have probably used these online already. We use chatbots as they are the little “chats” in the corner that answer questions. No wonder they don’t know very many answers and make us mad; they are not human! Oh, those, you remember. But can they write a whole book? They have done so. There is a surge of e-books written by chatbots on Amazon

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the ability of a computer to perform tasks that would typically require human intelligence in areas such as learning, problem-solving, and decision-making. 

Schools are concerned students will use chatbots for class assignments. One teacher took the bull by the horns and assigned students to use chatbots. They were to generate three responses to a writing prompt. The assignment was to edit and rewrite all three into a final polished piece. He wanted students to realize the generated content could be rewritten and that the content is not necessarily perfect or final draft material. Teachers have many other creative ideas for using chatbots in the classroom. 


Since I write prompts each month, I thought writing groups and adults could do something similar by entering information into one of these bots and generating responses. It could be very interesting. I had no reason to try these or even look at them, but thought I might like to see what would happen. I tried only two, one from Smodin, and one from ChatBot. Google search chatbot and find many different possibilities. Or maybe you have one or more apps already and want to try them out. 
Note: When you want to try chatbots, remember they will start emailing as people have to sign up to use even the free versions. I put such emails in my junk folder, so I don’t have to see them unless I want. 
On A1 Chatbot I selected which style I wanted. Then, I pickled which language, title or keywords, entered a little text, a little content, and the decided upon the tone. I tried generating content about March weather. Clare O’Beara says that in Ireland March is called “Many Weathers” so it must be similar to our lion or lamb references to weather in the US. And, yes, the generator wrote like a human. Clicking regenerate gave another version, and so on. 
I also tried ChatBot. I could have selected many others, as well. I could have kept clicking regenerate for additional versions. This time I asked the bot how it felt about spring. In the answer, the bot mentioned it does not have feelings. Google fired an engineer who said a certain chatbot had feelings
When you read answers, you might see why a person would say so. Weird. 

I also have a printable PDF with a few prompts for those who want to print and write in “real life.” 

Thank you for reading, Carolyn Wilhelm @jamsandbooks.org
