Troy Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Early users of this application, that sends pre-programmed messages to your girlfriend, reports that it actually improved their relationship. I saw a really interesting movie last year about this guy who fell in loved with his virtual girl-friend, a piece of software. There are already programs that can carry on conversations with people for hours and the people are unaware they a communicating with a computer program. So I'm not surprised an app like this would actually work for some people. There was a time when more of my tweets were automated and I noticed there were automated conversations taking place between my account and others!. I later learned that something like 60% (don't quote me) of the tweets on twitter are automated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delano Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 And this is an improvement? There's a really killer app called communication. Which may be related to commune. Mean to join with, become one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDBurns Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I just saw that movie Troy and my first thought was, will there ever be a time where we actually write movies that are this ambitious. I guess not ambitious, but just different. Our narratives need to open up. Delano interestingly enough, that movie ended with real communication which I think was ultimately the point.

Cynique Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Are you talking about the movie "her" with Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson? I watched some of it but it didn't draw me in enough to maintain my interest. I couldn't get into the concept. If I wanted to communicate with an artificial intelligence I would prefer an android who would be programmed to amuse me as well as stimulate my intellect, and - who would also be an appealing stud.

Troy Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Yes Cynique, that was the name of the movie, HER I thought the film was really good. Specially when the relationship began to fall apart. GIve it another shot. I agree Chris and maybe that is why I have little interest in the popular Black movies and TV shows. I'm not holding my breathe waiting for this to happen on screen, fortunately there is the world of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Check out a Movie called Chameleon Street or check out the movie African American author Darius James did called Unites States of Hoodoo. Check out negrophobia the book if you like Ishmael Reed. Also search for Darius James reads at Barnes and Nobles at Christmas. He was into The Veldt which I think change their name to Apollo Heights. Brothers twin AA playing music. So them and Darius James in NYC. So it happened it is happening but ya missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
