Since these things only last one day, I thought it would be nice to memorialize Google’s April Fool’s joke of 2009. It was based around Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) gone wrong. If you missed it they rolled out a fictitious service called CADIE, an acronym of course: Cognitive Autoheuristic Distributed-Intelligence Entity.
A what? Well …in short think of it as A.I. for your tasks. One feature is/was Autopilot; the auto e-mail responder that does more than reply. I profiles the e-mail sent then replies to the e-mail message based on the content. Waves of Hal 9000 flood my senses when I think of this. That is where the joke lies. Imagine a service created by Google that goes horribly wrong. Here are two sample replies. The first one delineates the value of your relationship with the sender and provides them a report, hilarious. The second is a sample reply based on matching the style of the original message. Very funny stuff. There was much more to the CADIE spoof. But you get the idea.
