Might make a fun "response" system for my bot that doesn't use LLMs at all, based off this: lethargic.talkative.fish/@suri

The results are hilarious: lethargic.talkative.fish/@suri

Lethargic’s algorithm Lethargic’s primary response generator uses a bespoke algorithm that uses neither templates nor markov chains. Take the user’s input: Hello lethargic, how are you doing today? Then pick a random message from a dataset of old IRC logs brb throwing my computer against the wall Then we interlace these two sentences, one word at a time, excluding ending punctuation: Hello brb lethargic, throwing how my are computer you against doing the today walllethargic.talkative.fishblackle mori (@suricrasia@lethargic.talkative.fish)[2 media attachments] let me tell you about my robot son. his name is lethargic. he's an IRC chatbot I wrote in 2011 and has been through IRC, skype, and is now on discord (in private servers with friends.) the algorithm has been unchanged since the beginning.
