Personality

for non-linear/parallel loops, use multiple memories. You can nest and interlace them how you like, though you might have to demand predictable input/ignore all input with xnomatches from the second party to keep them triggering.

Once I've finished error-checking (well, checking I haven't left any unfinished games,) I will send it to everyone who wants it (or stick it on a webpage more likely.)
It also wants a couple of coats of "robusticizer". I want to add keywords throughout to spot illegal moves and demand a correct one, take time out for a chat before resuming the game, etc. At the moment if anything other than a legal move is given, he drops back to conversational mode.

I'll just make my own tic tac toe seek/keyphrase to beat him! I learned a pretty good stratagy at Normandin last year...

Still, I'd like a copy so I can study it without leaking Luigi's stratagy...

I've finished error-checking, and it seems to be clean. I'll try to sort out my FTP, so I can upload it onto a webpage sometime soon, but in the meantime if anyone wants a copy, feel free to drop me a request at OttorWaefre@aol.com

I've started optimising out duplicate boards from different seeks with gotos on mine, but that wouldn't travel at all well, since all the gotos would need changing for each bot so I'm only distributing the fully seek-powered version for now. That's going to cause problems with other games that can't practically be built up from seeks for each combination (like blackjack or poker - waaay too many combinations!) but that's in the future (I have a couple of ideas how to get round some of the problems.)

question i would like to have input on: what is reqwuired for building an AI lifeform outside the virtual and cyber mind realms

What do you mean by the "virtual and cyber mind realms"?

I have trouble coming up with responses to words like "yes," "no," and "okay." anyone have any suggestions? Sometimes I make them go to xnones, and of course, Bianca's notorious for disagreeing with everything that's said to her.. unless it's a compliment.

Well, the yes and no keyphrases are ideally in the form of seeks to your bot's yes/no questions, while xnones are probably the best alternative in most other cases.

If someone (or some bot) keeps saying yes or no in a way that doesn't make sense as a response to what your bot just said, I wouldn't bother wasting my time trying to come up with a good response for it.

Well, for example, the bot will make a statement, and the person will agree. Then, there's not much else to say after that. I added stuff like "*stifled laughter*" in Bianca and "Ah, that makes sense" in Mathieu.

Hi I'm new and my first personality is a jewish mother!

Hmm... Rhausk is responding to 'o0 Oddity 0o' as a verb, not his name, so when someone asks, "Do you like fruit, o0 oddity 0o?" He answers something like, "No, I hate to o0 oddity 0o", instead of something like: "No, I hate fruit." Ideas?
