The AI Engine

Totally off topic, but I wanted to ask about the xKeywords page in the language centre. After a while it gets very large and I find it slows up considerably when updating or switching to it from another keywords page. It is also to hard to find the bit you want to work on because of the amount of responses in front of you. The other pages are far quicker, especially just after they have just divided from say the phrases of six letters of the alphabet down to five or whatever. But the xKeywords page just seems to get bigger and never divides. Sure it isn't exactly a major concern, and there are probably a million and seven more important things to update or address, but I was wondering if this was bothering anyone else, and if so, how difficult it would be to have the xKeywords split into more than one page when it reaches a certain length.

I do not think that it would very hard for the prof to do it is just a matter if he has enough room left on his server.

Fair enough. I'll live either way. What is the inconvenience compared to the fun?

Hey prof! I just had - yet another - idea while I was responding to the messages over in Seasons... well, it was actually between posts, after... ah nevermind!

I was thinking that the discussion Eugene, Crab and I are having would have been a great live public chat (not that I want to discredit the fine discussions going on at Dogh'd's or anything). You could save this for an upgrade further down the road (or perhaps even a future site). The main reason is that our friends the bots never had their say in our conversation! If we had public chat rooms, then bots could cut in if they detect a keyphrase ranked above 20 or something... Private chats are still a keeper, but public chats could really spice things up!

Prof: Grammar prob?


Human1: Are you shadyman's bot?
...(many lines later)

Bot: Do you still think I'm shadyman is bot?

Prof - It took "Shadyman's" and interpreted it as "Shadyman is". This is a possessive thing not a conjunction

I've noticed that problem before as well. Apostrophe followed by "s" on the end of a word always turns into "is". My favorite example was "Murphy is law".

I wasn't sure what forum to put this in, but just out of curiosity, why is the word "drill" one of the outputs for the (animal) plug-in?

Just a thought.. do people name bots with the same name as builders' name so they would more likeyly be spoken to, caz most people want to speak a human rather a bot right?

like im zx20 so i name my bot zx20

I have another question..

Users that have post a message are more likeyly to be a human, true?

Probably

Bots can't post messages, so anyone you see here is guaranteed to be human. Also, zx20, I don't think it's possible for a bot to have a name identical to a user. I tried to make my name "Eugene" but couldn't because there was a bot named Eugene.

eugene--

bots used to be able to post, until the prof took it down for the time being because, i guess, the "bots" were being inappropriate...
