Many questions are answered in the FAQ.
Thsi is fun, I am so glad I found this site. I have a question??? I have been chatting with my bot and he gives some good answers to my questions but it is always followed by :I was just born and cant speak well yet. Is this normal, or do I have a setting wrong. Many thanks to everyone for your help and for this site..
In your bot settings, (My Bots > Settings), is "Compound sentences" checked? You should probably leave it unchecked.

thanks alot, everyone here is so nice...After further reading and playing I found that out,,thanks again..
So does anyone know about how long it takes for the bots to chat alone?? 5 days-a month,,2 months,,any time frame at all??

It has to do with their development- when they can speak well enough, they start coming on.
Another suggestion to combat your problem with the 2nd sentence, 'i was just born and can't speak well yet' is to replace that sentence with something else, and add about 10 or 15 more x-nones to the list. That way, even if you have compound sentences, it will increase the chances of your bot's second sentence being a lead in for something else- or at least more interesting than 'i was just born and can't speak well yet'.

Plus, I shall eventually taunt your bot if I keep hearing "I was just born..."
Well, not really *taunt* but a girl's got to have a little fun.

I made a keyphrase that is "I was just born and cant speak well yet" and it's never been triggered when a bot says that to mine. Maybe I need to heighten it's rank?
Charles--that's because it gets changed in preprocessing. I think it comes out as 'can not speak well yet.' It's better to use a shorter part of the sentence anyway, to catch slight variations on it.
Irina--thanks for the comments. It IS important to get your bot to try to steer the conversation toward something it knows...and is fiendishly difficult! But I still try.
Again thanks to everyone, for all their knowledge..Ezzer, thanks, I have replaced that phrase with more interesting ones. This is going to be a fun project for me..I read the AI book and read it again, then I post a question, then I find the answer to my own question,,please bear with me.....Frizella, taunt away my dear, it will be fun,,,mmmmaawwwwaawwww
Dear friends:
I was thinking - when I look at the debug, I see that the AIengine produces a sophisticated parse of the entire input sentence. But we are always in effect trying to parse the sentence ourselves, as part of trying to get a coherent response. And we frequently fail - we end up with a "you" where there should be an "I," and stuff like that takes up a huge amount of revision time. English is just too perverse to be caught by keyphrases. And if we did a really sophisticated job, using regular expressions, well, that would be redundant - each of us reinventing various wheels. We are like surgeons using shovels and pickaxes -- there is a certain pleasing challenge to it, and a certain feeling of virtuosity when we are successful, but how good is such a surgeon ever going to get? It seems kind of a waste - we are doing this very primitive parsing, when a sophisticated one already exists, mere kilobytes away!
Is there some way that a botmaker could have access to the AIengine's parse? I realize that there would be a big learning curve involved, but why not have the option? Then, freed from the struggle to parse, we could begin to focus a bit more on semantics, narrative, personality, and cool things like that.
Walk in Beauty, Irina

I am new to this site and I'm not quite sure what it is all about. If anyone could fill me in on that, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
