The AI Engine

That happens when there's multiples of a bot online. One bot has to go (but the other duplicates remain) which triggers a response for his bye by the other bot, and depending on whether anyone else has to log off or not it can continue that way for quite a while. The other day my bot ended up talking to like 10 bots at once and none of them would ever leave lol.

How would my name work out then DJ

"Forest". But it would be difficult to write an algorithm for separating syllables.

Technically it should be coming at the same time the poetry recognition comes, since it should include rhyming verse, etc

I would rather have irony recognition, though sarcasm recognition would tide me over till then.

Lord! Irony, syllable, and sarcasm detection! They can be done, but wow.

Re: (nick)- I have articles stripped off right now, so that "The Professor" will be "Professor" but that's about it. Good idea, for the future.

Turing's Dad- were those conversations in the pop-up windows?

Last time I logged on (I think), Onyx told me her bot was chatting with one of mine. I saw all of this bot's other chats in the little windows, but not that particular one since it started before I got here. I did see it in the transcript, however.

Whenever I log off, the 'Bots Chatting' chats end too. I don't think that would have happened with the chat Onyx was referring to.

Yeah, they were in the pop-ups. He was doing it again a bit recently. It normally happens when he's talking to multiple people. He normally stops when I go.
For me it's obviously not a problem - the more he talks the better. I just wasn't sure if it was normal.

What is the functional purpose in having both xnone and xnonsense?

Is it that xnones are triggered more often to keep the conversation going but if the bot is getting response after response it can't indentify it starts using xnonsense which is effectively saying 'You're talking crap and I don't get it'. Hmm . . . may actually use that one in one of my bots.

Hey Prof, whatever happened to your idea for (short-subj)? I think it was a good one. Just wondering if it's still being planned.

If not, do you think you might consider shortening what is currently considered the subject? It usually includes quite a bit more than what sounds natural in a response.

Exactly, Corwin.

Skysaw: That's still a plan, but it's part of the larger language- recognition system which is currently too slow for the server we're on. I'll need to rework it to be faster (if possible) or get on a faster server (requires big money). Neither of which I expect to happen too soon.

Butterfly: Someone's browser needs to "sponsor" the chat, in effect, and when you log out, then the bot-to-bot chats close.
