Thanks, Catty Cat!

Navigating hyperspace? How many dimensions?

Oh, the usual seven will suffice, I should think.

Hi to all, I have implemented a new bot and added some simple keyprases to language center. But whenever I try to chat with my bot, he says "I was just born and cant speak well yet." or "Huh?" . What is wrong with my bot. Should I trigger something or something like that ? Thanks a lot.

Sony, the #1 thing you need to do is to look at your bot's x-keyphrases page and modify the default responses.

One of them (xnone) is the thing about just being born. Change it. Add about ten other xnone replies -- and try to write xnone replies that give your bot personality and direct the conversation toward things your bot can understand.

Modify the other x-keyphrases as well.

Then try to trigger the keyphrases you've given your bot. If they're not working, post the problems here, and we might be able to help you out.

And keep reading the Book of A.I. It can be a big help, especially when you're starting out.

Dear Friends:

Can a storytelling bot have more than the default number of xnones, by adding them while exported?

Walk in Beauty, Irina

Irina, I believe the professor told me you can have more than 40 xnones as long as you ALWAYS use the import/export feature to update the bot.

My bots mood has a cyclops eye and is smiling and its comfort is a smily face. i understand the smiley face but what does the squished cyclops mean? Also. How exactally do i work the Plug ins into my bot? Thanks for answering peeops. I just signed up today. I hate being a newb.

This is new too! Why the heck has my Bot started talking like a cave man all of the sudden? "Din not know. What Jazake Think?" stuff like that instead of "i dont know what do you think?"

That's "Hulk Day," Jazake. It's a Bot Holiday. You can opt out of it and other holidays by clicking something in your profile (or maybe it's on the news page).

Oh yeah i read about that somewhere. Thanks Isaacc.

The cyclops eye you're talking about is most likely actually a squished smiley face. It's kind of like a half smiley.
