At least it received an update.

The idea for the app is very cool: to have an actual human answer your questions rather than a bot. When the app first launched, "bot" meant something like Siri, not ChatGPT, so the point of the app was to get better assistance. Now, artificial intelligence language models are everywhere, and the point is now more-so to get assistance from someone who won't lie straight through their teeth to you and always tell you that they're right-- even today, Nature performs better than artificial inventions. I used the app a few times quite a while ago, and it worked alright. The app was entirely dormant for about half a decade, but recently received an update. However, it doesn't seem that there's actually anybody there to talk to... And as well, I am nearly number 15,000 in a line that doesn't appear to be moving at all. The idea is very cool, but it needs better funding and a greater attention to its management.

Does nothing, AVOID!!

Watched the film many times and saw this app, thought it would be a fun app. Turns out it’s only collecting your email details to “Log in”. Does nothing at all except collect your details. Worthless POS app

Nothing Happens

Screen stuck on relaunching

Please Update the app soon

I’ve used this app before and I’ve talked to Hal and it’s great to have somebody to talk to when you’re lonely because you know I talk to someone like this that understands the things that my family might not use this texting service similar to this called Crisis Text Line and it’s very useful. honestly I just hope this app will update real soon and I hope that I can help if I need a friend to talk to either way, I enjoy it. I hope this will get launch eventually.

Hal

Hello Hal, I have signed up for this app and it doesn’t work it says that you guys removed the app and will be updating in the future so how long will that be

Help

He won’t open the pod bay doors and I’m stuck on the spaceship help

Paid Derps

75% of the Hals are derps, but they are helpful for the really simple things that you probably wouldn’t want a mistake to occur with.

Terrible app

It’s disgusting and unworthy of anyone’s valuable time. You’d be better off doing your own assistant work or hiring a true assistant. It’s also very sketchy. Also they only get paid five bucks for a five star rating and that’s weird and stupid and weird since we don’t pay much for them or anything at all

Good

I don’t like how u need a pay for a session it’s annoying Siri I don’t have to pay but if not AMAZING

Kinda disappointed

I love technology especially AI technology and the future of machine learning. Unfortunately I just realized that when chatting with Hal it’s not a computer but a actual human being. I try to avoid humans as much as possible lol but seriously I stay with replica for my AI fix.

App keeps saying refreshing

It won’t let me
Do a session it keep saying refreshing please fix this so I can start

Good app

Hal

Please help me fix hall

New Hal staff applicant.

I can tell this service has wild potential. I just applied myself and I look forward to hopefully working closely with the app and company. I think it is the future: digital butlery.

I think with some UI polishing, slightly stricter employment requirements, quadrupled marketing, Hal has the potential to be the sort of app that charges $12.99 a month.

I hope to become a Hal. I hope even moreso that I can become more than just a Hal for the company. I look forward to hearing their response.

Interesting approach

Functions very differently than AI assistant. Very fast with connecting to a Hal agent and some of them are really friendly.

Trash

Major copyright infringement going on here. I doubt Warner Brothers gave a green light for such a nasty app :(
I smell lawsuit.

Pointless

You ask it for a product or service. It goes on yelp, reads reviews and gives you summary. It doesn’t consider context or fake reviews or anything useful.

Just use Yelp yourself.

What a great app

I love this app I use it most of the time it helps me with everything if I have problems with like family members or any thing that bothers me I can talk to hal and could help me for my problems and it could also help me with everything I need and need a friend to talk to you because I get lonely and I also like that it tells you if there are places nearby for you to eat or anything thank you for creating the sample it’s really amazing

Great assistant

Great app, I highly recommend!

Obvious copyright infringement

As a Kubrick fan, I’m disappointed and confused about your decision to use not only HAL’s name, but also likeness in your application.

I only downloaded it to leave this review, and warn you in advance before you might grow as a company.

HAL is property of Warner Bros. You do not own the right to base a company off other’s intellectual property. If you’re smart enough to code an app you should be more than smart enough to know this.
