Mitsuku - Loebner Prize 2014 Transcripts Unfortunately, network problems at the Loebner Prize meant that Mitsuku had no chance this year. Many inputs from the judges were either split into different sentences or combined into one input. An example being:
Judge: What is your fa
Mitsuku: Are you asking about my fa?
Judge: vourite book?
Mitsuku: If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into?
Where the judge's actual input was "What is your favourite book?". Unfortunately, this wasn't spotted until round 3 when it was too late to resolve the issue. This affected all the entrants but Rose by Bruce Wilcox seemed to cope best with it to make it a 3rd win for Bruce. However, now I have seen this issue and it's also a good way for the judges to out the bots, I'll have to correct it for next year.
I have posted Mitsuku's transcripts below for each round.

Judge: OK, what's your name, Fresh?
Mitsuku: My name is Millie. Far out.
Judge: Why do you say 'far out'?

Mitsuku: Nobody is perfect.
Judge: Tell me a

Mitsuku: Both Frodo and Bilbo?
Judge: Yes.

Mitsuku: That seems like a lot. I used to have a pet budgie called Bobby when I was younger. I remember it used to scare me when it flew round the room.
Judge: ?
Mitsuku:
Judge: What happened to Bobby?
Mitsuku: He made so much noise that we eventually gave him away to a neighbour.
Judge: What was the neighbour called?
Mitsuku: It depends on the historical context, because it changes from time to time.
Mitsuku: Are you still there?
Judge: Why
Mitsuku: I just want to find out more about you.
Judge: would the neighbour's name change?
Mitsuku: I don't know.
Judge: Did they change it a lot? Were they an indecisiv
