Official Release of Meme Bot is here, Though it's a meme bot, it can be used as any image bot, since it googles the text. For better results, give proper description.

The script runs on a cron job, checking for mentions every minute, so, it will reply within 1 minute.

Funny, I guess, but I would shut it down for abuse reasons.

No need to add a Google bot when Google is available to everyone for free

@AlgoRythm It won't be abused, it's like a utility bot, I will take care of that

@theabbie There is literally porn already. There is already porn and it has been used like 5 times.

@AlgoRythm That's because of @Linux otherwise, it's a useful bot, if used responsibly. like the translate bot, and highlight bot. Currently it's new, so people are playing with it, once it ages, it will be used only when required.

@AlgoRythm @theabbie

It is already abused.
+ The moderator is doing a bad job, just purge the thread.

@theabbie translate and highlight bot cannot break TOS as easily because they can't post images from google.

This is a kinda okay idea but it definitely shouldn't stay running.

@AlgoRythm highlight bot posts images too, and I don't think it's breaking TOS, should I add rate limiting, like a user counter?

@theabbie also @Linux didn't break TOS but your bot (and by extension, you) did. And why haven't you deleted it yet?

It is breaking TOS.

@theabbie porn is against TOS

Just purge the thread

@Linux Calm down, sir, calm down!

@AlgoRythm Deleted pornographic images, How didn't @Linux break TOS by asking for pornographic images?

@Cyanide

I am calm, I Did not use CAPS ;)

@memesbot calm down

@theabbie

I wrote porn, and I did not expect the bot to post porn ofcourse.

@memesbot

console

@theabbie you're allowed to mention someone and say porn. You're allowed to mention someone and say anything you want.

YOUR bot went to Google, searched for it, downloaded it, and posted it.

Your bot is at fault. And it's a disaster waiting to happen.

Good job dude!

@memesbot good job

@Linux What did you expect then?

@AlgoRythm @highlight Porn

@memesbot

N00bPancakes

@theabbie

Memesbot - I expected a fucking meme

@theabbie yeah? That's not breaking TOS. It's an image that says porn. Not actually a naked woman with an hand in her vagina.

@memesbot

Linux sysadmin

@AlgoRythm I admit that, is there a erotic filter, or an alternative image search engine?

@memesbot

@theabbie

You should figure that out before you put this bot into production ;)

@memesbot

Die bot

@Linux @AlgoRythm If I say that "you can't search pornographic images, it's not our responsibility" in Bot's terms, is it fine then?

@theabbie there is not a single filter in existence that filters everything. Plus you need to filter out gore, politics, and generally disgusting and graphic images, which is a huge task. Plus, since users don't know what they're going to get, they can't always guarantee that "shit" will be a funny meme, it may be an image of someone actually shitting.

@Linux Give me an example of meme you expected by asking for porn

@theabbie Bots aren't technically allowed on devRant because the API isn't public and there's no rules for bots. So putting it in the "terms" gives you no protection and does nothing.

And like I said - you don't know exactly what you're going to get. It's just the top result off Google. You may get something by accident

@theabbie

Not really xD

@AlgoRythm The simplest solution would be appending "meme" to search term, this would filter out most of wrong stuff.

@theabbie

Internet is made for porn.

@theabbie there's millions of porn memes. Like fake taxi, Mia khalifa, etc. Porn is a big part of meme culture.

@theabbie

That is not a solution cD

@memesbot porn

@Linux Let's see, I appended "meme" at end, now it's Searching "porn meme", if that doesn't work, it's sad.

@AlgoRythm I hope it's under TOS now

@memesbot

Intercourse porn

@theabbie

Well, it is just a matter of time before it breaks the TOS again.

Looks like it did....

@Linux There is no meme which can be described with "Intercourse porn", don't try to fool my bot.

@memesbot porn, not a

@AlgoRythm I see what you did here

@theabbie

I did not know that, do you have a libary of SFW memes?

@AlgoRythm Hah, gotcha

@AlgoRythm @Linux Another solution is searching from specific meme websites, ie. appending "site:knowyourmeme.org" etc.

@memesbot imagesize:10000x10000

@theabbie

That could be something

@memesbot

Orange man

@theabbie that's a better idea.

@AlgoRythm @Linux Kind of fixed it, now it only Searches https://knowyourmeme.com/ If you know more reliable meme directories, please let me know

@AlgoRythm Can't be better than this

@Linux hahaha you got it

@AlgoRythm It's Technically a meme, so, no problem

Okay, that was pretty dank. I like your bot now.

@memesbot

Nsfw

@AlgoRythm Know more meme directories?

@memesbot

Porn

@memesbot
Cock

@Linux Your tricks won't work now, it only Searches knowyourmeme.com, if they have a pornographic images, then something can happen.

@memesbot bukkake

I wonder if we are using cURL or some other command line tool?

@memesbot "; shutdown now

@AlgoRythm Nope, not cUrl, I am using node.js and it's "axios", I have given source code if you are interested in hacking

@theabbie I would love to try and break it.

@AlgoRythm Your previous request failed, maybe because there are no images, I have to fix that I guess.

@theabbie I will consider that technically a success!

@AlgoRythm Not because of your command, it searched the whole comment, and maybe there is no relevant image on knowyourmeme for that query.

@C0D4 Wanna try?

Impressive

@AlgoRythm Thank god I didn't disclose the server Endpoint, you would have DDos'ed it

@theabbie DDoS is a blunt tool used by dumbass script kiddies.

I like to break things in more civilized ways.

@memesbot tits site:https://pornhub.com "

@AlgoRythm What exactly could you break? If you could extract bot password, I'd be really impressed.

@theabbie Really, all I want to do is crash it

@AlgoRythm I underestimated you, you are too clever, btw, it should be "OR" in the end to search multiple websites

@memesbot porn site:pornhub.org OR

@AlgoRythm You were successful in crashing it

@AlgoRythm Still needs some work

@theabbie I see, I was trying to escape the last part out somehow. I'm not familiar enough with Google advanced search syntax. But fair enough abusing your own bot lol

@AlgoRythm It did crash, Now I need Regex to remove "site:<something>" to sanitize input

@F1973 it's memesbot

@F1973 Also, it reads whole comment, invoke in seperate comment

@theabbie you're really tightening the bolts on this bot. The internet is a fantastic QA department, free of charge

@F1973

@AlgoRythm Going to Google, searching image, downloading and then posting is a tedious task

@F1973

@F1973 I had booked the memebot username, but it's not working, reading same comment won't be hard, I can do that.

Maybe use meme website as source? They already filter out NSFW on most.

@F1973

@F1973 the holy Trinity

Tits,
Bigger tits, and
<Unreadable text>

@Demolishun I already did that, read the thread

@F1973 These are google thumbnail images, It is open for improvement once the community approves

@F1973 to be fair I was pretty impressed you asked for bigger tits and did, in fact, get an image with larger tits than your last request.

The bot obviously is stateful, remembering your last request, and has tit-size-detection AI and natural language processing in order to deliver a response.

Very impressive

@F1973 Would love to hear your feedback

@F1973 you know, this could be converted into an XKCD bot. That would probably be easier to make work correctly.

But I don't like bots, so I won't be the author.

@memesbot Disgusting

@memesbot theabbie's mom

@AlgoRythm @F1973 Anyone investing in this bot?

@F1973 Suppose someone really wants to post an image, there is a lot of hate for Google among people, for privacy reasons. This will bypass that , also, you won't have to download images just for using once, It might not be a utility bot, but I think it will be great, Regarding wikipedia bot, it won't be difficult to make, I will make it.

@F1973 They can somewhat control output by being specific. And they won't be blamed for unexpected Output.

@Demolishun @F1973 considering this kid's address, first and last name, relationship status and even body measurements are public, you could 100% find his mom.

@F1973 Even if community doesn't approve, I may use the bot for myself by modifying script and replying to only my mentions, can we hear more people's opinions on this?

@F1973 as soon as he is out of his dumbass phase he's gonna be a great engineer.

And I am happy to teach him a few hard lessons

@uyouthe @Linux @linuxxx @12bitfloat @iamai @alexbrooklyn @MySluglikesSalt @scout @calmyourtities @iiii @rutee07 @NoMad @Root @C0D4

Would like to hear your opinions

@theabbie Well, the use of Google for this isn't good if you ask me but hey, that's just me haha

@memesbot pll skip

@linuxxx It's just searching the web, why do you think it's not good?

@F1973 How exactly would you like the Wikipedia bot to work?

@theabbie I don't care 🤷‍♂️
IMO, it's not suitable for this place.

@iiii Why not try it First? maybe you would like it

Okay, so I'm not going to touch on the demand or "does this solve a real problem here" stuff as @F1973 already did.
For the bot, an LMGTFY approach is certainly ineffective and not something that will bring value to this bot.
If you used GPT-3 (or 2) or any properly trained Deep Learning model and used it for that, the results would be more useful, relevant and more predictable to users.
Of course, there are other approaches to do this but using NLP and ML/DL would make this bot far more reliable than it is so far.

@Berkmann18 Don't you think Google does all of that?

@memebot Trump coding

@premmkrishna it's memesbot

@memesbot AI coding itself

@memesbot
Theabbie doing drugs

@theabbie
I had fun watching them break it. :)

Like what @F1973 said it may not be what the site needs but I see the goodness in the intent.

Plus points for addressing the criticism and fixing the issues rather than just getting angry or worst giving up.

Should he keep it? Why not? There are parents who let their kids do stunt tricks on skateboards. Those are way more dangerous. We have great folks in DevRant who can guide.

My vote is let him have this. He already has retooling plans for the bot so I'm sure making this better with other people's input is just a matter of time. Besides I want to play with memebot too. Even if just for little bit. 😊

@memebot @memebot @memebot 🤗😘🙃

@memesbot male genitalia -meme

@iamai Thank you for feedback, you spelled it wrong three times in a row, it's memesbot

@memesbot @memesbot @memesbot empty wallet

@theabbie yeah noticed it too late

@memesbot @memesbot @memebot late -late

Hey..

@memesbot

Books please

Trying this again since first attempt I got the name wrong

@memesbot male genitalia -meme

@memesbot male genitalia -meme

@memesbot male genitalia -meme

@iamai No need to specify "meme"

@theabbie your bot is slow. I should have three pics by now.

@memesbot male genitalia

@theabbie As in blindly googling something and returning the first result?

@iamai If it didn't reply within 1 minute, it won't reply

@theabbie it's a minus before meme

@Berkmann18 Searching like this "<query> site:knowyourmeme.com" and returning 1st result

@theabbie making a lady wait...your bot is not a gentleman.

@iamai It only searches from knowyourmeme.com so no need for being too specific, If you know more meme sources, do let me know

Wtf is going on

@iamai As I said, either within 1 minute or never

@scout I want opinions on whether meme bot is a good idea

@memesbot dicks

@memesbot pussy

@memesbot dead rat

@theabbie meme bot? Useless idea.

@scout It might be useless, but, is it a fun idea?

@scout @theabbie created a bot that sends the first picture for that text.

@theabbie sure is. You’re young. Maybe good idea for you. But glancing at the comments, too much misuse. Bring another fun idea .

@scout I could make it automatically delete comments after 10 minutes, That way it won't spam, Regarding another fun idea, I am working on a tictactoe bot.

@memesbot dissapointed cricket fan

@memesbot surprise

@memesbot happy

@memesbot sad

@memesbot surprise

@memesbot happy

@memesbot sad

@theabbie still this meme bot isn’t so good, think well, I’m sure you can come up with a good one. Tic tac toe sounds okay. How about word guessing etc.

@scout If you could elaborate word guessing, that would be great. We could create games and make DevRant a gaming website, but that would be equally useless, as @F1973 suggested, I am working on Wikipedia bot, that might be useful.

Randomness could help extend a few more minutes of fun.

@iamai If you liked this meme bot idea, you are in my team

I have to stop now. It was fun @memesbot @theabbie thank you :)

@iamai @scout The only thing bad about this is that these images are stored on DevRant server, our fun might cost dfox, That is one valid point.

@theabbie word guessing game I meant
U call the bot
Bot gives a puzzle, whose answer is a word/country/band/etc
Whoever replies with correct word, bot says something nice about the person.

@theabbie I'm not against the idea. You can evolve it for sure. In case the mods won't like the idea though because it is in its infant stage and subject to misuse you could considers limiting the users.

@scout I need a riddle API for that, Will see that

@iamai Whoever wants to use it can tell me, only they will be allowed to use it, that way it won't be misused

Anyone who goes to this thread perhaps? Not sure if possible something like @memesbot #turnon activates use for max 5 mins only.

And you could have membot delete the pics after a day so it won't eat server space

@iamai Let's allow it to run for a few days, if it doesn't get accepted by community, I will shut it down

damn, I gave away all my life interests in just 10 seconds.

@theabbie every rant you post brcomes popular. If you're interested in being my PR manager just dm me

@memesbot that escalated quickly

@theabbie

The only "safe" way I see this working is if you curated a library of memes and then associated tags. If a meme is not found for the request send your self an email to add it or serve up the content.

Relying on google images, without safe filtering enabled and keyword filtering added, this as you can see can go really dark really quickly.

A bot is only as good, or as bad, as its users allow.

@theabbie maybe add a command where the user that requested the image can request removal. Also, @Linux your argument doesn't really work that well because this depends 100% on where you draw the line, does this mean i can use a third party bot to brak TOS or even laws randomly? Would be nice if it worked like this, but it doesnt.

Also, @memesbot porn -

@memesbot deep penetration pussy crrampie -

@memesbot 4k ultra hd
@theabbie we need more Resolution this hurts my eyes.

@memesbot memesbot

@memesbot worst-quality pics

@memesbot coffefe

And award for ultimate shit post thread goes to...

@C0D4 As you can see, it only searches from knowyourmeme.com which is a wikipedia for memes combined with Google's searching power, I don't think any meme collection can be better than that of knowyourmeme, we can make it even better by including more sites.

@eval Low resolution is good for DevRant as these images are stored on DevRant server, why waste precious space for stupid memes?

@eval The only possible way of achieving that seems to attaching an ID to every comment, if you want to delete something, call @ memesbot DELETE <ID>

@uyouthe It's memesbot, let me search that for you

@memesbot sonic r34

@memesbot shadman r34

@memesbot cb-6000

@C0D4 Also, Google has a safesearch filter, we can append "safe=active" to URL, Let's see if that works.
