Let's see, who is this bot?

Mankind strives to liberate its life from unnecessary problems as much as possible. Therefore, he devises various robots ready to perform any programmed work. Sometimes it happens so much that you can only gasp! However, many do not understand what is at stake. "Who is a bot?" They ask. Consider who or, or rather, what it is, for which "it" is intended and summarize the data.

1. What is it all about?

As already mentioned, at the moment there are many robots (abbreviated - bots). They can perform such a volume of work that a person can never fulfill. However, they have a significant drawback. They still do not know how to think, thank God. And, therefore, directly depend on the person. That is why, the question: "Who is a bot?" Slightly wrong, because at the moment there is no artificial intelligence.

2. What are they for?

The Internet is a huge network in which people not only can spend their free time, search for necessary information and have fun, but also carry out commercial activities. As a rule, in order to have successful business in the virtual space, you need to notify Other Internet users about their site. To automate this process, special programs are invented. For example, there are bots for "ICQ". Their tasks are simple. First they are added to several thousand users, then they send them the same type of messages. Multiple destinations can follow the link, so the program task will be executed. There are, of course, similar things for other purposes, but they are less popular. These include an answering machine for the ISQ agent. Not less popular is the bot-translator. However, only a small part of users are ready to use his services. The fact is that the quality of translation leaves much to be desired. It is worth mentioning that large financial resources are involved in this direction, so soon the situation should change for the better. Do not forget about all sorts of online games, the developers of which create a realistic atmosphere create robots, rivals, whose actions are calculated by the computer.

3. The position of bots on the Internet

Earlier it was mentioned for what purpose these incomprehensible, mysterious wards of the computer were introduced. After all, about five years ago no one knew who the bot was. However, now most know that it is scammers who resort to the services of such programs. Yes, do not forget that they are still written and receive money for this. With the help of such assistants you can quickly raise your level in the game, automatically put hearts on social networks, translate some texts, download music, earn automatic clicking on links and much more. There is a completely justified opinion, which evaluates all the actions of automatic programs with the lowest score. And after all, we should not forget that the Internet was originally created for the exchange of information between people. But when a programmed machine works under the human image, which absolutely does not care what to do, then the original task, as they say, comes to nothing.

Now you know who the bot is. Briefly, this is a special program; Its purpose is to make life easier for some people, however, sometimes other Internet users may suffer from this.
