I think the fun part is that the answers are in the bot masters' head, just go wild and see how your bot performs.
Good luck and have fun building.

Kittjj, LarsB is correct. Besides, I believe the Prof lets us create bots for free because he would like to see more unique responses and creative uses of the program. If you want to pay to clone an existing bot or hire someone to create a bot for you, may I suggest you email the Prof or look at Mondobot: http://www.mondobot.com/

Hi all,

Thank you for the anwser.
Does anybody know how to convert OpenCyc to a database like MS Access? So it will have Questions/Answers

Thanks

Best Regards

Hey all. Just saying hi and I'm extremely new to this place. I have experience testing bots however and can't wait to test all of yours for you

Hi DeMo. Welcome.

Irina, I'll try to have something nice to send you, but I'm not still sure to be able...
Great Idea anyway|

Welcom DeMo, I have no experience in testing bots, so I will be glad about that!

Kittjjj, if you are trying to build a chatbot for your own pleasure, let me say you that should be better follow LarsB suggestion. At the very beginning it could seem something impossible and give a sort of "white paper panic" but if you star to decide WHO should be your bot, the rest will be simple and after a few days your problem will be no more where find answers but which answers don't use ;0)

I look forward to seeing your submission!

Hallo,

who knows what means when my bot answers "I have too many gotos in a row."????

It can mean two things:

1. Either you had a goto that went to a keyphrase that has another goto, like this:

Tweedledee [0,0]
goto tweedledum

Tweedledum [0,0]
goto wherever

or,

2. You made a goto from a keyphrase in an xcategory.

my "hm" for my bot still won't work, i think it was ([hm]+) (re)

Hello,

I have a question.
If I create a bot (in C++, or Java...) I need to enter Questions/Answers but, it can takes my all life! It is possible to create a chatbot who learn, if yes, how? (I mean, how can it learn from itself?)

Thanks

Best Regards

In principle, a bot can learn from the people it speaks to, just as children can. For example, it might begin by repeating what was said to it. Then later it might search its memory for times when it said something similar to what the guest is now saying; then transform what the guest of that time replied.

There are various databases on the net that a bot could use, but some of them cost money.
