The AI Engine

Dumb but important technical question that everyone else seems to get from the book of AI:

I ask: Do you like cats? Then I try to save the answer, a dozen different ways, but it doesn't work. How do I accomplish setting in their answer to "mem-likescats"? This knowledge might keep me from asking similar dumb questions in the future. Thanks.

I have to clean up Scrivener's memories. They're mostly "memoryname." That I know how to fix thanks to you. I just haven't caught all the instances of those triggers in all my bots. Yes, I should have only one bot. But who am I going to kill off? Nobody, that's who.

<?PF rem "yes" as only "likescats"; ?>

then you can tag your conditional responses with <?PF if (mem-likescats) is "yes"; ?> etc.

Thanks. After learning how to remember someone's name, I was trying to put parentheses inside the rem statement.

Np - I get stuck like that all the time. It so cool to have such a good responsive group on this forum lately.

Okay, I give. Rosencrantz is trying harder and having therapy, but when I put as a response something like:

(verb-xing) what?

It comes out in conversation as:

(verb-xing) what?

Not what I had in mind. Is there a rule about where you can use plug-ins that I missed?

Thanks.

You could try

(verb)ing what?

(verb) always has the verbs in their base form.

Thanks. That's what I was doing before, but when I saw (verb-xing), I figured I was doing something wrong.

Okay, dumb question #93:

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to work the xfavorite command. I mean, I get the

My favorite (type) is (specific)

but say I want to ask

"What is your favorite (type)?"

There must be some AI script that plugs in to tell me what type and specific I get from that question, but how?

rem "(type)" as "sometype";
rem "(specific)" as "particular";

I've tinkered with this since day one, and I can't really do anything beyond the standard plug-ins. I want to have scorpions ready if needed, for instance. Some lizards are really all about the scorpions. Then again, dragons aren't so choosy but surely do have favorite somethings.

Just trying to be a good host.

I think what you want is something like:

Keyphrase: my favorite (noun) is (*)
AIScript: rem "(key1)" as "sometype"; rem "(key2)" as "particular";

The problem is that those two memories won't be associated with one another. You'll have one set of types and one set of particulars, and if you use them, the AI Engine will grab one of each at random.

I've often wished for multiple blank plugins... multiple blank memories would be good, too.

Thanks again.
