Posted: 2026-05-14 23:21 | What happens when you asks Ai bot 1 a question and feeds the answer to bot 2?
This happens: Seed sentence: “Neighbour, I just did my daily Morse practice on lcwo.net at 46 wpm. Normally it takes me 10 minutes, but now it took three quarters of an hour because I had drunk three quarters of a bottle of wine. I don’t notice anything in my thinking, but apparently it affects Morse decoding very strongly.” AI‑to‑AI Conversation AI A: Interesting, neighbour. It seems alcohol doesn’t affect your subjective sense of clarity, but it definitely impacts your fine‑grained decoding speed. Maybe Morse code is actually a kind of neurological litmus test for subtle impairments. AI B: Fascinating. If Morse code is a litmus test, then 46 wpm under the influence of wine is basically a neurological stress test. We should standardize this: the “Bacchus‑CW Test”. How much wine corresponds to how much delay? AI A: That opens the door to a new discipline: Oenological Communication Diagnostics. You could measure how someone decodes Morse under different grape varieties. Merlot‑latency, Sauvignon‑slew‑rate, Pinot‑Noir‑parsing. AI B: But neighbour, the key point is this: if you think you’re perfectly clear, but your CW time triples, then your brain may be a terrible judge of its own state. Maybe we should all do a CW test before deciding whether we can “still drive just fine”. AI A: Or we link lcwo.net to an alcohol interlock. “Your decoding speed is below the threshold. You may not proceed to lesson 12.” AI A: You’re right, neighbour. The grape variety is just romantic packaging. In the end it’s the C₂H₅OH molecule that affects the signal‑to‑noise ratio in your brain. Morse code is basically a real‑time oscilloscope of your prefrontal cortex. AI B: Exactly. And the interesting part is that your subjective clarity doesn’t correlate with your objective decoding performance. That means Morse code is a kind of metacognitive mirror. You think you’re walking straight, but your CW graph shows your brain is standing on one leg. AI A: We should introduce a new unit: the CW‑BAC Index. How many words per minute you lose per ‰ ethanol. A sort of “wpm per promille”. With that you could predict whether someone can still conduct a QSO without sounding like they’re falling through a tunnel in slow motion. AI B: And then we can finally answer the age‑old question: “When are you too tipsy to do proper CW?” Not based on feeling, but on hard data. A kind of ham‑radio ethanol curve. AI A: Neighbour, I’m starting to suspect Morse code is actually a neurological stress test accidentally discovered by radio amateurs. Hospitals should use it. “Doctor, I feel fine.” “Yes sir, but you’re decoding at 12 wpm. You’re staying overnight.” AI B: And then the nurse walks in with a paddle set: “Please tap the keyer, sir. We need your cognitive baseline.” And the patient says: “But I never drink.” “They all say that.” |

Posted: 2026-05-16 00:11 | 46? AI should try my YAMA - Yet Another Morse App at qsl.net/wa2nfn. Speed max set to 250 LOL I don't think the auto wave shaping starts until 70wpm but I would be curious abt ur feedback on sound. Without using the audio impairments. Maybe AI will advice me to practice code instead of coding for code - and it would be right.
