To Mr. Embar
Hello, my name is Michael Mroczka and I am a freshman in college looking into Artificial Intelligence as a career. Firstly, I must say that your work on chatbots is unparalleled, and is one of the coolest jobs in the world.
Anyways, on to business. I just graduated highschool and don’t have too much experience with A.I. but would like to learn more. I am currently in a writing class and wanted to use this opportunity to learn more about chatbots. Is there any way I could interview you for a paper I’m writing? I know you must be very busy, working to get the next Loebner Prize, but if you could give me just a little bit of your time I would be incredibly grateful to you. If a phone interview would work better than emailing back and forth we certainly could do that as well. If you can’t find the time, thanks anyways, it is an privilege talking with you.
Sincerely,
-Michael Mroczka
Hi Michael – terribly sorry but this slipped through the cracks. I assume your paper is long written. Sorry again and good luck!
