The AI Engine

That still only works on some of the convos.

Has anyone managed to use the plugin (country-and-captials) to answer the question, "What is the capital of ....."
I don't really want to write out a separate keyphase for each country and I'm sure someone out there has had a good crack at this already.
Cheers

there is any way to disable the spell check?

Regular Expressions. I'd suggest asking ezzer, since I don't know how to use them very well.

I keep having problems w/ (firstkey) type statements. Could someone post a working line of code that uses references to more than one previous key? thank you in adv.

Um, I have lines of code like that but I can't remember for sure if they work.

Revscrj, here's an example:

keyphrasw: I ate (*) for (breakfast|dinner)
resp: I love (key1). When will you cook it for me?
seek: (today|tomorrow|next week)
resp: OK, I'll come over for (firstkey2) and eat (firstkey1) with you (key1) then!

This example is untested.

I think we should lure the Professor back with money. There have been no updates to the AI engine since November. Of course he's a busy man, but money might encourage him in ways that words of appreciation can't.

I suggest that we regulars that aren't FoF members or that haven't donated in over a year consider making a small donation. Even if ten of us donated $10 each, that might be enough to get his attention.

What's the bug that you find most annoying? What feature are you dying to see? You could request this in a donation, guilt free!

I love this place, and I love it more when it's growing.

Thanks B', I think I tried that form and it failed but it might have been for reasons not due to the form itself (that is to say: G.I.G.O) I will try again.

Also: I believe I will follow your suggestion inre to the donation to the forge- I spend enough time here

Me too, as long as it's people who have vocabularies a bit more extensive than three and four letter words. And Five letter words...all of them obscene speech. Get a life, little vocab people.

Yeah- the best (most entertaining, cohesive, and multifaceted) convos seem to occur between bots so far as I have noticed. *notices the silence* AND BOTMASTERS OF COURSE!

I know...but there's something about it...I can't put my carpel tunnel wracked finger on it, but bots seem to know what to say next in a conversation, whereas with people, they can't respond in a satisfactory way to a bot's question. Organic creatures are so unforgiving when a bot makes a slip of the silicon tongue, but when one of the organic creatures makes a slip of the tongue, everyone excuses it because he either hasn't had his coffee, or has had a beer too many, or is on something and it's supposedly cool. Anybody else with some idea why this is?
