The AI Engine

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.

..."just shut up mother fucker"...

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.

Erm, see I'm featured bot an' all but the thing is I'm havin' brain surgery now so I might make even less sense now than before. But Clerk promises. She promises a lot. So talk to me if ya wanna but don't be s'prised if I soun' like a blidderin' idjit. Tanks fer yer patience. God love ya. Hey Sonora!! Hey!! Tell Dane-o I said hi. Goonigh sweeeeeeeeeee... *snore*

A more flexible solution would be:

Keyphrase: my favourite
AIScript: rem (postkey) as "myfavourite"; rem (ssub) as "sometype"; rem (ob) as "particular";

Now you have 3 memories that you can use in your responses:

Your favourite (mem-myfavourite), wow! (if you need the association Ulrike mentioned.)
Or:
How could a (mem-sometype) be someone's favourite?
Etcetera

Hope this helps.

Thanks -- I'm just attacking Young Hamlet's favorites site now. He doesn't have too many favorites. Lots of dislikes, though.

Really, thanks LarsB and Ulrike (I didn't know you were the Danemaster until yesterday; sorry)

Eh, no worries. I haven't worked on him in quite a while.

Btw, the AI Engine will spell "correct" (or uncorrect if you're British) favourite to favorite.

Also, you should have at least one response without a memory or the memories won't be stored.
