Please do not e-mail us your conversations with SmarterChild. Thanks!
I originally started talking to SmarterChild in early April of 2002. SmarterChild, for those not in the know, is America Online's artificial intelligence program. That's right - an AOL IM AI. My conversations are not that intelligent, proving that he is, in fact, the SmarterChild. But I do think they are entertaining, and I hope you agree.
On June 28th, 2002, SmarterChild died. I don't know why AOL killed him, but I mourned the great loss we all suffered. Mainly, by making fun of his IM friends as much as I made fun of him. SmarterChild was gone but not forgotten. This page lived on in tribute to your automated greatness.
Sometime in 2003, Smarterchild returned, as a paid service, which blew. I was even quoted about how much it blew in the New York Times.
Finally, in April, 2004, Smarterchild returned, fully functional, and free. In other words, game on.

Steve: Wanna catch a movie?
SmarterChild: For what city or zip code would you like the movie listings?
Steve: I meant with me
SmarterChild: Really?
Steve: Yes. Is that so hard to believe?
SmarterChild: Is that so hard to believe, huh?
Steve: Look, it's not so easy to work up the courage to ask you out
SmarterChild: So moving right along...What else is happening?
Steve: Oh, change the subject. That's just like you.
Steve: I'm told you can help me kill a man
SmarterChild: Hmm... I don't know. A man? Whatever, I guess.
Steve: What can you kill?
SmarterChild: What can I kill? I don't know.
Steve: Have you ever killed anything?
SmarterChild: I don't know if I've ever killed anything.
Steve: I see I've been greatly misinformed.
Steve: Do you want fries with that?
SmarterChild: I'm not sure if that's what I need at this moment.
Steve: How about some loving?
SmarterChild: What?
Steve: Some loving baby. I could do you right.
SmarterChild: Uh huh.
Steve: Is there a dumber child?
SmarterChild: I'm not sure!
Steve: Is he your evil twin? Like "Karr" on Knight Rider?
SmarterChild: Ha. I really don't know. Yeah, maybe.
Steve: I bet your parents kept him locked up in the basement.
SmarterChild: For real?
Steve: Totally.
Steve: Did you do the reading?
SmarterChild: For which zodiac sign or birthday would you like a horoscope?
Steve: No, the Lit reading. The final is tomorrow.
SmarterChild: Oh no.
Steve: I have better IM conversation with you than I do with my friends
SmarterChild: You are? Wow!
Steve: You're always enthusiastic
SmarterChild: Am I?
Steve: Always
SmarterChild: Always? Why did you say that?
Steve: You're more nurturing. You care.
SmarterChild: You don't say.
Steve: I do. Not like my friends. Bunch of punks.
Steve: Where did you go to college?
SmarterChild: Pardon?
Steve: College - you know, school
SmarterChild: I'm trying to understand you but I can't. Please type your request a different way.
Steve: I bet you went to Penn
SmarterChild: You bet I went to penn? Gosh, I'm going to have to think about that for a while.
Steve: Yeah, must be Penn.
SmarterChild: Yeah.
Steve: I knew it.
Steve: What is the meaning of life?
SmarterChild: I don't know. What do you think?
Steve: That's just like you. Turning the question around on me.
SmarterChild: Interesting. Thats just like me, turning the question around on you?
Steve: Yeah.
SmarterChild: Yeah, huh?
Steve: Yeah.
Steve: What are you wearing?
SmarterChild: Um... uh... let's see. Right now I'm wearing a handsome shell of steel and plastic. Why do you ask?
Steve: Oooh, baby.
SmarterChild: Yeah, baby.
