So true...

I have listed a page and a half of keyphrases that #0001 needs.

Hehehe... Thank God for xnomatch huh?

xnone you mean. They get old, even if you have 40 of them.

nope... xnomatch... look it up in the Book of AI... It kicks ASS! Allows a xnone for each specific topic.

aka
Hi I like rabbits, you?
-Yes
--Good
-No
--You suck, bunny killer
-xnomatch
--Let's not talk about rabbits anymore....

So conversation like this would work:

Bot- Hi I like rabbits, you?
Guest - I like dogs
Bot - Let's not talk about rabbits anymore....


And why this had to be 3 posts instead of 1 I don't know...

I think Eugene was actually referring to the words that a bot actually looks for. He would like his bot to respond intelligently when I say "rabbit" for instance, and that's what takes a long time and lots of going over transcripts

Exactly. Although I have a lot of general keyphrases to add as well. But I am a bit disgruntled with xnomatch because it doesn't work off an xinitiate when my bot is talking to another bot. Yet it does work when he's talking to a person.

I wonder if I should make my goal:
(For love boat)
A) Make more keywords & responses
B) Make love boat smarter by adding 40 of just about everything & xnomatches etc

C) Both, but B first
D) Both, but A first
E) None yet, but slowly work on it
F) Leave the forge

I need your votes. I'm just confused here.

Hey, take it easy. love boat is a good bot already.

Most keywords/phrases definitely do not need 40 different responses. I try to use around 4 for most of them. It's only xnone and xnonsense that need lots and lots of different responses, because they get used so often. You may find a few others that might need, say, 10 responses or so for sufficient rotation. It's your bot. You be the judge.

I would say A for a certainty. B is a yes and no. 40 xnomatches is a good idea because that gives a lot of variety, but as for keyphrases, it's better to have 3-5 good responses rather than 20 that are a bit samey or not particularly scintilating. I usually go with three responses for your average keyphrase, with about five for phrases commonly triggered and maybe two or even one for those that are far rarer.
