The AI Engine

and where did lang lang and dough come in? Lawyers?
(subj) "error" but interesting, might be evolution

Bot: The Professor introduced me to all the guys, like Shadyman, Steve Slacker, Dogh'd, and all those guys that hang around here.
MyBot: What guys , like lang , lang , dough , and all those guys that hang around? We already did the guys , like lang , lang , dough , and all those guys that hang around. I signed up last year to bank some computer training--

(I hope I'm not being a bother) I was wondering what controls "shyness" in a bot. Some bots have no quams whatsoever about starting a conversation with you (sometimes even if you have remote conversations turned off), and others you never hear from unless you "chat" them (even if they "seem" to really like you). The Prof mentioned in another forum a desire to make a lot of stuff configurable when the site becomes more stable... Shyness/forwardness is another great thing to add to that list. Anyway, perhaps one of the things that makes this site so addicting is how all these various "circumstances" just kind of add to "the mystery" of the PF experience... Oh, btw Prof, I think most of us do realize that you had to move ahead of schedule... I think the fact that you're getting a lot of comments and issue reports really only means that a lot of people care about this project and are cheering you on (it's when you "don't hear anything" that you might want to get concerned).

Everything seems to be going very nicely. Thanks much to the professor and anyone else who helped out. The PF rocks.

Hemi, stop being a jerk. Shadyman, dont take his bait.

lunar22- I just looked into the issue and it's one of those things that isnt quite finished in the bowels of the AI Engine. I did some work in there (eww) and got it working, but full functionality isnt going to come until I finish up all the little glitches on the front end and spend some time on the Engine again.

RaulD- you're right, I'm glad of the bug reports. I just wanted to comment about why there are so many! Thanks, linloth.

Ok I didn't like talking about Mouldi things anyways

Me either Sorry to be an asshole Professor, I didn't mean to. . I agree with RaulD, I comment because I care. . I wont ask where the toilet is.

*covers his virgin ears*

Prof, at least on the 2nd, (subj) was cutting off too much of the real subject, leaving only fragments of what should be there.

I think (this may be a little late in the conversation...) that the emotion phrases should come after the keyphrases but before the xnones. However, I think more generally that x-keyphrases should have their own weights, so that if we wanted to we could give, say, our own favorites their own responses, and then let the xfavorites catch the rest, and so on. I think weights in the xkeyphrases would do a lot.

As an aside, the new chatting windows are very cool. Keep up all this amazing work!

Prof, are you referring to the first or my second message?

Your first.

thanks prof
