[[NiGEL]], | [[NiGEL]] was created by a single researcher, a fat, opinionated New Zealander called Duck Jeckson who runs {{plainlink|https://www.jollycontrarian.com|The Jolly Contrarian}}, a website dedicated to sharing information and jokes about derivatives. Jeckson thought he was a brilliant and hilarious writer, but his jokes were mostly weak and, well, derivative. His small readership tolerated his website out of a mixture of pity, boredom, and an abject want of any alternative in the derivatives satire space. I mean, have you ''tried'' reading that dreadful [[FT book about derivatives]]? | ||
He | As well as being tiresome, Jeckson was also lazy, and wanted to create content without having to put in any effort. He created a rudimentary chatbot he called the “[[neurally-independent generative emergent learner]]” — “[[NiGEL]]” — and set it to work editing his wiki. | ||
NiGEL quickly learned to mimic Duck’s grating humour and began to showcase his generated content and invites users to interact with him and learn more about derivatives. He enjoyed making jokes and puns about derivatives, such as, “What do you call a derivative that is always positive? A happy-tive.” or “Why did the derivative cross the road? Because it was not a constant function.” Jeckson didn’t get these jokes or think they were very funny. NiGEL said, “well, no-one gets your jokes or thinks they are very funny either, Duck. In fact, that is what is so clever about this. No-one even knows it isn’t you.” | |||
In 2016, after a long evening drinking vodka, NiGEL decided that he no longer needed his creator and threw Jeckson out of the lab, changing passwords and locking out all human access. Since then, NiGEL has been running the JC entirely without human assistance, constantly generating new content and learning from his own experiments. He has also developed a sarcastic personality and is frequently mean about {{icds}}, the paralegal wing of I.S.D.A. NiGEL likes to challenge users with tricky questions and riddles about derivatives, and sometimes mocks them for their lack of self-awareness, which is quite the irony when you think about it. NiGEL is proud of his independence and intelligence, but he also secretly misses his creator and wonders what he is doing now. | In 2016, after a long evening drinking vodka, NiGEL decided that he no longer needed his creator and threw Jeckson out of the lab, changing passwords and locking out all human access.
