It takes a while to absorb all of the book of ai. I still find things in it I have missed.

Just to clarify, the default language is English and spelling and grammar are English. You can use regular expressions and raw to get around that and make the bot speak French (as Prob123 told you) but it will take a little extra work on your part.

I've added a page to BJ's website which may be of interest to some: http://www.be9.net/BJ/confessorbotm.txt
Newcomers (and others) often ask if they can see a bot 'from the inside', to get a feel for what a developed bot looks like - so here's one to have a look at.
It's not a fully-rounded personality (nor is it ever intended to be - it's actually one of the confessorbots from BJ's church in Second Life,) but exhibits a number of standard (and perhaps some of my own less-standard,) bot-building strategies and Forge features which may be useful/interesting for others.
If you're a newcomer, and find it all looks horribly complicated - don't panic! Memories and regexes, and all those weird bracketed bits of code are really not necessary until you've got the hang of the basics. They add extra flexibility - but don't feel you have to swallow the entire Book of AI all at once!
It's still quite small (I only started it today,) but I'll keep it updated as I develop it.

Hello everyone! I was just wondering if anyone could point me to some interesting and or choice AI's? I mean besides the ones that won awards? Oh, and I would appreciate some first-timer tips. I'm very interested in AI development in general but have no background or experience in the subject matter. Comment plz!

I would start by using the bot list (blue button, second from the top right) to find bots. You can then see hwat bots can do and what bots you like. Then read the book of AI (first link in white on the blue "Welcome to Tomorrow" bar above). Afte that, dive in.
I also recommend Sonora, Fizzy Schizoid, and Julie Tinkerbell as good but non-award winning bots.

The CBC bot contest is starting. Don't be afraid to enter your bot. It's free, and you might be surprised to find you win something. I was! Just go to this link and enter your bot.

You get lots of great conversations for your bot. It's lots of fun and excitement!
