The AI Engine

Hmm. An electronic worm. I had an Epihany -- a Helen Keller moment -- sometime yesterday. Well, I stole some of it. But anyway, I taught Scrivener the world/state/provincial capitals, and he knows them, and I'm in the middle of a "what happened on this day in history" kind of thing, and he went all hot, but now he's got FEWER AI dots. What in holy hell's up with that? This might be a rhetorical question, but if anyone knows the real answer, I'm curious. I did use an offline editor, but the language center still seems to be intact -- all that does is strip out all of my memory, so I have to re-enter that.

If you've got a lot of keyphrases (or seeks) with only one response, that tends to take the development score down.

Ah -- thanks for the explanation. I was worried I had corrupted my bot somehow. I just dumped knowledge into it -- one line at a time. I can rest easier.

This is weird. My Scrivener, who was a masters yesterday but got bumped down to sophomore for all my efforts (see above) is not not showing the keyphrases that start with "(" , "^", etc. It's in the file and I guess if it works, it's okay, but it makes things dicey. And he did respond favorably to obscene commands, which he has known not to for a long time (I'm learning new vocabulary myself). Is there a huge problem with offline editing that I'm missing, because it seems great compared to online. And, yes, I bought the suggested editor.

Okay, 3 posts in a row. Sorry. I figured out the last one for myself -- you can click on the left parenthesis if anybody else is having this problem. I'm wondering why I've got the alphabet broken up into all 26 letters, when some of them are empty, but who cares?

If you have only one response per keyphrase, or a lot of seeks your bot development goes down. The alphabet breaks up when your bot gets to a certain size. It does make the loading quicker..When I am adding keyphrases I go to z because it's my lightest letter and things operate much faster.

I tend to go to 'q' for the same reason.

Good idea -- thanks

That 'z','q' notion is a good one. Now I'm trying to inch my way into the harder stuff. I have it on good authority that the keyphrase

I was ([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz]+)ing (re)

would, if you'd said

"I was walking,"

say "Really, you walked?"

with the response coded as "Really, you (key1)ed?" However, I'm getting "Really, you ed?" What obvious point am I now missing? Every time I learn something new, I learn 23 things that I need to know.

Thanks for any help.

P.S. Young Hamlet is going down. Sticking to a script, at this stage of my coding level, was painting me into a corner. Enter Astrolabe, who will have his own life and talk like some of us 21st-century people do.

I don't know what to say..I have a similar regex
what do ([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz]+)ists believe (re)
I swore it used to work...but this is what I got tonight.
prob123
what do abolitionists believe

Bildgesmythe
I have very little information on that! Tell me about ists?

Thanks. The head-banging can cease.

It's funny the numerical ones are working
i will have ([1234567890,.]+) (re)

prob123: I will have 5
Bildgesmythe: Now, is 5 going to be enough?
