Juergen Pirner

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One sense of Jabberwock disambiguates to here. For the later, two-time winner of the same prize, see Jabberwacky.

Juergen Pirner (born circa 1961)[1] is the German creator of Jabberwock, a chatterbot that won the 2003 Loebner prize.

Pirner created Jabberwock modelling the Jabberwocky from Lewis Carroll's poem of the same name. Initially, Jabberwock would just give rude or fantasy-related answers; but over the years, Pirner has programmed better responses into it. As of 2007 he has taught it 1.2 million responses.[2]

Pirner lives in Hamburg, Germany [1].
