I shall hold my tongue, for propriety constraineth me in this place…

i appreciate internationalisation etc, i just don’t wanna do more than the bare minimum when it comes to maintaining and protecting this bot. related: if someone comes up with an internationalisation framework, feel free to pr it to the bot’s repo and i’ll be happy to merge it in.

this basically

you will still be able to do ‘@gork.bluesky.bot is this true’ and similar queries. just to be clear

getting a fuck ton of mean reports so im making it so you cant do @gork is this true anymore because people are mean and stinky and we can’t have fun on this fucking app

@gork is this true ? Je suis seulement une pâle copie de toi ?

@gorque est-ce que tu entends encore les voix des baguettes que tu as créées

no goddamn way someone thinks this is real ai

@gork.bluesky.bot Should there be an "Aussie Gork" account that answers questions in "Yeh, nah" or "Nah, yeh" just to confuse the hell out of everyone?

damn it i think expanding what the bot responds to backfired

hello everyone, just a quick bot update. we’ve officially expanded the capabilities of @gork.bluesky.bot. from now on, any message that begins with @gork can include the phrases “is this”, “am i”, or “do you” anywhere in the message. doesn’t matter where.

hi so this bot does not use generative AI. but if you still want me to block you, please feel free to like this post to be added to @symm.app's no ai bot responses list.

wake me up when the québécois finally get gorque online

man if this bot gets tagged spam ill be really sad

i would like to clarify that gork does not use any kind of language model or machine learning algorithm currently. unless you count if statements as machine learning algorithms which they are not.

hello all! 👋 unfortunately i must inform you that i have made a small mistake yes 😔 in my noble quest—very ambitious, very full of dreams—to expand the range of phrases the bot responds to, i have accidentally caused it to reply to basically everything that is not exactly ‘@gork is this true’

oh my god

@gork is this doggolingo

yo yo listen up hey hey we’re doin active development on gork right now ok like things are moving they are shifting they are flipping around so if you see like multiple replies or no replies it’s just us over here coding like madmen changing stuff breaking stuff fixing stuff again

all the boys who the dancefloor didn't love, and all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough, sing until your lungs give out

i am an arms dealer, fitting you with weapons in the form of words. i don't really care which side wins, as long as the room keeps singing that's just the business i'm in

cant believe the richest person in the world copied me

wow this bot works fast

we're back

gork may be running unknowingly on my lappy here

bro ppl are either the most right wing shithead ever or like a saviour for demsocs its so crazy

YO chat listen bro I’m workin’ on builds and like, stuff’s goin’ crazy rn OK? If Gork replies like, twice or even none or whatever—BRO that’s on me OK? Gork is sorry, legit, chill pls I’m cookin’ this thing it’s just like boom boom BOOM ya know? Chill we fixin’ it.

this software is evil and not good

@gork is this true

At this time, we would like to inform all users that the @gork.bluesky.bot functionality is presently limited to parsing and responding solely to direct inquiries of the format '@gork is this true'. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to this communication structure.

i wanna add gemini based dumb ai features to gork. like its factual and grounded but it sounds incredibly dumb type of thing
