Spiritual Machines Interview

I was just re-watching the Pamela Wallin interview with Ray Kurzweil, Mike and Raine. In this they talked about one of Kurzweil's programs called the Cybernetic Poet, that takes parts of poetry from different poets and puts them together to make new poems. At one point Raine said he wanted to use this with his past lyrics to get ideas for the next album... so anyway the point is that the Cybernetic Poet is obviously to blame for any simplification of the lyrics on Gravity. CLEARLY bob rock had nothing to do with it. Oh yeah, one other thing, if you go to kurzweilAI.net, use the Ramona program, and ask the question "Who are Our Lady Peace" they give you the answer "These guys rock--especially that Mike Turner, who is way smart too." so that's cool. In conclusion, Our Lady Peace are neat.

I think you're right, Pamela Wallin is more cute than Barbara Walters :drool:

This Cybernetic Poet sounds so interesting, but it doesn't work with Windows XP

I think it worked back when I had it with xp. it's ok. It's gets boring after a while.

Can you download it from KurzweilAI.net ? I couldn't find it there but I didn't look too hard

I don't remember where. I think it says how to get the cybernetic poet in his book. Check his site again, I guess.

I think you're preaching to the choir.

Where does the expression "tap" that and "hit" that come from? That's just...weird.

I got that interview. I think I paid something like $25.00 for it. I got it from the PM site I haven't seen it in ages. I do remember some of it though. .
