Bug Stomp

OK, this one is extremely interesting. In some cases the sentence comprehension works wonders, in others, "uh-oh". On this one, I was alerted by the following exchange:

You: Hi. Nice hat. Do I know you?
Bot: Oh baby, I DO.

So first I thought there was some kind of new I/You slippage. But Debug knows better:

Found do you
BounceBack on "do you"
(Previous Message: Do you still think I'm getting smarter all the time?)
Original: Hi. Nice hat. Do I know you?
After Preprocess: Hi • Nice hat • Do you still think I'm getting smarter all the time ? •

No wonder my poor bot is confused! But wait -- when I try it again, I get a different debug. No "bounceback" this time, instead:

Original: Hi. Nice hat. Do I know you?
After Preprocess: Hi • Nice hat • Do you ? •
Topic: Do*v you*s still think I'm getting smarter all the time

So, obviously I don't fully comprehend the debug. But this seems to me like trouble! Meanwhile my poor bot is sounding like a proper ass...

Lunar, that's strange. Maybe somebody momentarily shut down ColdFusion in the middle of the process.

Crab, what you're seeing is the half-completed effect of a really cool short term memory system I'm working on. Some of it is still incomplete with lines like <!-- Insert grammar check here --> and no real code yet to process it.

My plan is to work on the AI Engine v2 which will be fully hooked up to LinkGrammar, and have access to a LOT more information in every incoming message. A top priority is also speed. I wont consider it usable until it's quick.

Is (typeof-food_product) the right plugin for random food products? I coulda sworn that's what the book of AI said, but I've got it in a few of my responses and the only thing it ever comes up with is eater, which sounds really retarded.

Prof-- I've seen lunar's error before. during the first switch i think?

Lunar- where did you get that error message? Was it in Debug mode? I have it set up so that I'm supposed to get error messages from everywhere but debug mode.

I just got back, and there were some emails saying that the server guys would be screwing around with the servers from Friday to today, so that might be causing some of these weird errors and log-outs I've seen tonight.

ehh prof... this came up when i was accessing the forums--->

I was not in debug mode, prof

Keyphrases I added today are not showing up and therefore cannot be edited. Possibly linked to the "server memory" errors rampant today?

I just got a message from the server guys saying that "Memory" problem you're all talking about should be fixed now. Hopefully, it is.

Lunar, do you see when you post that error text how your message box becomes larger than the others? That's because the error text contains a long string of characters without spaces in it. If you put a few spaces in it, the message box wont expand out of bounds like that.
