Ok i have heard of this term just this week and i have heard some officemates laughing while using the app.. and the curiosity got me i checked it out too, it is an Autobot that answers questions with silly answers.. hmm some are quite funny though but some i do not get the joke. So why are they hooked up to this again? anyone care to tell me? coz i do not get the humour though.... or am i just tooooo serious?

My daughter told me this is not new and already existed on the net years ago, but only become famous here in our country recently. I haven't tried it too, but my friends are having fun talking to a machine,auto machine that will respond you for whatever language you will use and that where funny things happens because,if you will ask question using Filipino, simsimi will respond you Filipino but in barok way same thing if you use Visayan or Ilocano dialect.

Really?? So it's multi-lingual.. hehehe My sister's boyfriend checked it out and asked a few questions and so Simsimi answered.. But when he typed "ATUTS" he got no response from it.. HE said it's programmed.. Nasakpan! LOL

I was also curious about Simsimi but I did not bother trying or checking it out.. Though I have seen posts from facebook with people and Simsimi's conversation.. And just like you, I sometimes don't get the joke.. Maybe those people who has nothing left to do are the one's hooked up with it.. LOL

dont feel bad Jazel. I live in a household with 3 men. there was just 2 until yesterday when my youngest son had to have a place to stay. anyway, 2 of them think the 3 stooges is hilarious and i dont see any thing funny. and 2 other love watching cartoons of which at times i mostly dont see a lot of the jokes. i also knew a grown woman that watched cartoons 24/7 almost and thought they were so funny. and these are grown men around here. so even though i dont know what app. you are referring to, i still understand what you mean.

It's because simsimi is sometimes outrageous. If you noticed simsimi can speak all kinds of languages, it can interact and sometimes make you look stupid.

I've seen that in news a couple of weeks ago and not interested in. I remember in an interview with the grown-up students, asking if they will try to talk in that robot, there's this boy that said, "no, I have friends to talk to sensibly". I think, anyone can get access in saving a question and an answer in that 'bot, in anything they want. I think, there's no checking apps with regards to what will anyone wanted to saved in there. For that matter, it's not good for the kids.

I have just downloaded simsimi application on my iphone 4g. i was ignoring this application at first but when my friends told me about it, it motivated me to finally use it. yes, it is an autobot that answer your questions. the funny thing about simsimi is that it answer you with real silly questions. when i asked simsimi about my lovelife i could not help but laugh out loud.. hahaha! i consider simsimi as one of my stress-busters. it helps me to forget my problems for a while..

Well, i've seen this simsimi stuff in my fb wall and i got curious about it, and why everybody's talking about it, so i tried it... Sometimes, it's fun talking to this simsimi, with all his silly answers, sometimes it fits, sometimes it's out of topic... And then i got it, you can teach him how to respond certain questions, but because you knew it how it works, you just get bored about it...

My friends are also hooked to this bird robot. I don't find it very amusing or entertaining either and I'm not a serious person. When some friends post conversations with Simsimi on Facebook, I laugh with them. They get very funny conversations with this bird. But whenever I try to chat with it, I don't get funny conversations. It doesn't look very much entertaining to me.
