Library Intelli Response

NJIT has this new AI system that tries to answer questions about the library.
http://library.njit.edu/hometest.php
They bribed me to test it out with chips and the (prospect of eating in the library with permission).
These are some of the questions that I asked it:
  • do we need a license to raise cattle in the stacks? (the answer involved library fee policy)
  • I have a pet goldfish, will he have access to the computer services?? (answer involved my account)
  • is there a fine for reckless driving in the library?
  • can I join the army if my cousin is in jail for stealing a chili dog?? (no suggested answer)
    They said to use slang so here is my try at slang:
  • yo! check it- see i be needing a journal but I can't no catch them? (it answered this one correctly!)
  • is there a fireplace anywhere so i can warm my toes?
  • I lost my pet walrus in the library last Thursday, have you seen him?

  2. I tried it out too.

    Can I use the library as a driving range? No, because I don't have an NJIT ID card.
