A Completely Normal Chatbot

This is a normal chatbot. You can ask it any question you want... except things about it self. We created a meta program which "simulates" a chatbot gaining sentience. Less program, more experience.

What it does

"Simulates" an AI coming to terms with its own existence and gaining awareness. A program that depicts what it would be like if an AI had an existential crisis

How we built it

We built our program fully in Python. We used the OpenAI API and streamlit for the chatbot website portion, and for the "finale" section, we used cv2 for the webcam section and tkinter for the windows. We used adobe after effects to create the video filters and the Blue Screen of Death animation at the end.

Challenges we ran into

Issues with variables not updating through the streamlit website, the streamlit website kept refreshing after every submission which would break our variables and timers setup, running a cv2 webcam inside of a streamlit instance, running a cv2 camera alongside input variables with both being in a while loop.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Everything to do with OpenCV and afterwards.

What we learned

We learned not to be too ambitious with our ideas, especially for a time . Fully realize the feasibility of a vision and whether it is realistically possible.

What's next for "A Completely Normal Chatbot"
