Ok ive changed some stuff around still got a long way to go but its getting better I think bit by bit.

Wish I could check out some of the more advanced bot key phrases for my self. It would be cool if there was some kind of template you could download with the most common things people ask. So you just change the key phrase responses. It would be a bit faster. But I supose you wouldent get so many original Chatbots.

People tend to say different things to different bots. That's one reason why transcripts are useful.

I think it would be a neat idea if PF generated some page with a random list of 5 or 10 keyphrases that have hit within the last hour or so from all bots. Naturally, the responses would be omitted to protect each bot's originality, but I don't think the sharing of keyphrases is all that bad.

Hell, I'll even share a few that Pete seems to respond to quite frequently:

^do you like - a good alternative to do you like, which distinguishes between Do you like pie? and Why do you like pie?

(adjartnoun) (told me|tells me|says) - A lot of gossip phrases will trigger that.

(something|anything) (that|) you (care|want|would like) to (discuss|talk about) Covers many different variants of "Is there anything that you want to talk about?"

Musuk0, hopefully these will get your mind flowing with ideas about how to create your own keyphrases.

Transcripts Ive been using alot I found them a definate help. just wish more real people would chat to him, so I coul deal with real responses, Maybe when its better people will. Fingers crossed.

Boner the Clown - hey thanks for the tips, "^do you like" with the ^ is a bit of coding i take it meaning anything before "do you like." it will respond differently.(hope that makes sense lol) Or am I completley wrong??

Thats a dam good idea about PF generating keyphrases which have been asked in the last hour or so why not send the idea to the Prof.

Click on the "Transcripts" tab on the right side of the screen.

If somebody sends you a message when you aren't here, it will pop up as soon as you log in.

Dear Leeds People:

I am curious: do the schools in Leeds ever teach reading, spelling, grammar, style, writing, English, anything like that?

Musuk0:

Single word keyphrases can be useful, I think, for when everything else fails. As Ulrike has pointed out, this will work better with words that have specific and relatively rarely-used words.

Sometimes I find the following procedure to be helpful: I see in the transcript something that the bot has not responded to well. For example, "How is the weather over there?" If it seems like something that might come up again, I write a response to it, say, "Very pleasant!" Now I ask myself, what else might trigger this answer? Well, they might ask, "How is the weather where you are?" and the answer would be about the same. So I change the keyphrase to, "How is the weather (over there|where you are)?"
I also ask, "How else might I respond?" the weather might be terrible, or rainy, or sunny, and so on. So I might write the response as, "(very pleasant|terrible|rainy|sunny|cold|warm|hot|quite changeable)" Thus my bot will respond different ways at different times.
In this way you start with keyphrases that are actually likely to be used - otherwise your effort is wasted - and get the most out of them.

Walk in Beauty, Irina
