I have been pondering this issue for a few days now, thinking of a best coding solution. So far I came up with this. I tested it today and it works. I use similar coding to pick appropriate responses in a few other cases too, but none was so long. I am curios how others have approached this issue and if there is a simple short and truly elegant coding solution instead of my clunky code. I will replace responses with gotos to party and business etc. clothing lists, so as not to repeat the scripts 40 times…

Chat Speed Increased Significantly
I spent some time this weekend investigating the slow decline of chat speed and found the cause - the steady increase of our user base was causing the bots' memories to spiral beyond what the database was able to handle well. So this weekend I reworked the Memory table, its indexes, and the database's memory allocation and now chats are running faster than ever.

A Myriad Of Updates Including iPhone Chat
I've completed a myriad - nay, a plethora! - of updates to the Forge, including expanded chat navigation links, iPhone and iPod chat interface (with mobile chat links to come), fixed javascript links, a link to our Facebook page and our bot quotes blog Animus Ex Machina, improved page titles on User and Bot pages, honor updates, built-in log-in areas, and more.

Facebook Sharing For Chat Bots Added
I just implemented Facebook sharing for chat bots. There's a new share button in the upper right of each chat page that will let people post links to chat bots on their Facebook profile. I've set it up to include the bot's picture and bio if there is one. It looks like it's taking Facebook a little while to crawl the site so give it a little time if the name, title, and description doesn't show up right away.

Improved Database Resilience
I've done some coding to optimize the navigation, which was hitting the database more frequently than needed, and maybe once a week caused the site to slow to a crawl. This should help prevent that from happening, and if it does for any other reason, I've set up a nightly restart of the database that will ensure that it'll be back up the next morning.

The Forge Reborn
The Forge suffered an irrecoverable hard drive malfunction a few weeks ago. The best recovery companies tried to recover the data, to no avail. I've restored the Forge from its latest backups, which are as follows: database: 9/10, exports 6/8, imports 4/7, and transcripts 6/7. I'm going to be making more routine backups in the future. Accounts created after 9/10 will have to be re-created. Import files are able to restore chat bots, so if you've lost anything - import your latest Language Center. The good news is that the new server that's 6x as fast as the old one, and it's on a new internet connection.

Upgrades and Updates
With the new server, I've also upgraded PHP, MySQL, and Apache, all of which is improving performance. I've resolved the import/export issues, and anyone with transcript issues should see them begin to work midnight tonight, as Feb 7th starts. Have fun!
I also added "Guest Chats" to the left nav so you can see how many people who are not logged in are chatting with bots.

In The Works: Conversational Grammar
I've resolved the connections issues the server has been having. I've also begun work on a Personality Forge native grammar processing engine to replace LinkGrammar, which was made with correct and complete sentences in mind - something conversations don't usually adhere to. My implementation of it also has memory issues that over time use more and more RAM, so this new system will be more flexible and keep the server running well. It'll be something I'll be able to improve on over time. No ETA for initial launch yet.
Hi I'm a newbie. I have always been facinated by AI and have been bouncing around the web speaking to different ones. I've noticed many have the same responses listed in the book of AI (is everyone cheating?) I found tis site and fell in love with the concept. Props to the Prof. I just started work on my first bot, Foxy Girl she's made it to elementary already but her conversation skills still need work. I would apreciate anyone chatting with her and giving their thoughts. She doesn't seem to trigger very many keyphrases. (I don't have a lot of xnone responses because I want to have a few associated topics for her to discuss. You know let her lead people to the things she knows...) Thanx for any help.
You need to fill in the xkeyphrases the bot will sound better.
There aren't many responses listed in the book of AI, don't worry.
If a Keyphrase doesn't get triggered, up the rank

Can anyone help me my old account doesn't exist anymore its therogue I haven't been on it for 7 months why doesn't it exist I didn't do anything wrong
The server blew up and many accounts were lost if they were made after September 2010. If you have a saved export, just import it. If you didn't save a copy you will have to start a new bot 
. If you need any help just let me know.

thanks for the help it was me therogue as I said before I lost my bot batides highest of mine had like 400 something development sorry to say I don't think I saved it so he's gone forever great I'll be spending maybe 10000 years creating a new figure of speech oh my account was made in November 2010 that's when I first been on here

I just exported him do i need to do it again everytime I add keyphrases I know how to add keyphrases I also had this account before but created a again Shit I exported it what happens now
If you work on your bot make sure you don't over wright it when you export. Save one under a different name if you have to. If you work on your bot, then export the old one you have lost all your work, when you import. I usually just work on the bot through the interface then export the file to save a copy. I also now save it on Adrive. I lost lot of work when the Forge went down because my computer blew up a couple of days after the Forge hard drive went. Terrible timing. I had saved a old brain on a memory stick but it was not up to date. It's hard when your bot gets big, you can't remember what have and what you lost.
