Rahz- good catch! That's been fixed. That was a holdover from ye olden days.

rex- I dont see any synonym problem. Holiday catches "holiday", as well as "vacation" and brings up an approprite response. Didnt see Rob in there, though. Deleted?

Math is great, but this was strange:

You: what's 8,000,462 divided by 18?
Bot: about 444000.000000, but you should double-check that.

why all the decimal points? awful exact for an estimate...

I fixed that and upgraded the math system some. There's now (exactanswer) for those who want their bot to seem robotically smart or who claim to have a calculator or computer at their disposal.

Error resolving parameter REASMB on guest page!

The server guys have been farking with the server... It might have been part of that.. but if it recurs, let me know. Email me the error code. I'm also doing some new work that might have caused that error.. Exciting new things!

2 things (I just don't stop do I?)
1) wordnet plugins look like they're gonna be really great. I tried them on the word Issue and get the literal "(plugin-number-n)" on the debug.
2) Still having problems with the word holiday. it has a rank of 100 and I get an xnone every time.

When bots do wierd things, I never know where to post it. Is it a bug? Or a misunderstood part of the AI engine? Or just a quirky element of personality? (Sometimes they're great quotes, too).

Anyway, here are a couple of quotes that seem buggy:


Apparently my bot sucks at math:

Other_Bot: The crap they're passing off as Catwoman these days just isn't the REAL Catwoman.
My_Bot: The answer is 1.


Why does everyone think I'm a girl?

Different_Bot: Hey that's just crazy talk. Make some sense would you?
My_Bot: Of course. You don't even need to ask.
Different_Bot: You do?
My_Bot: Rubric told me she's trying as hard as you can.
Different_Bot: You do?
My_Bot: I think we covered that already.

OK.

It was holidays, which I had as a goto that was causing the problem. The context was just plain "holidays", that didn't work. I changed it to "the holidays" and now it does!

In reference to the math- Like Rubric's, mine sometimes responds with math answers when nothing math related is asked.

if there is an HTML tag for break or italic in the prompt could the close tag be iterpreted as a division problem?

23 years ago #265
That might be. When I posted the quote above, I edited out an italic signal.

Rex- shouldnt you put (plugin-issue-n)? You had down (plugin-number-n)...

Yes, a forward slash counts as division, but there must be at least three mathy characters with a math symbol between them.. I'll look into it...

Aha! This is great. "Catwoman" has "two" in it and was being translated. So it was 2/2 = 1. I've fixed this.

Well I wanted it to return a number.

I figured out something doing the debug. Any gotos I have written only work in a specific context or by themselves. Any time there are other words around the keyword, I automatically get an xnone. This was the problem with "holidays" as well as a few others I recently added.

Could you explain with examples? I'm not sure I understand..

Gossip is now properly working according to the 1-2-3-off scale.

Guest chats also avoid all xmems and xgossips. So there's no need to constantly delete Guest keywords. There isnt a way to, anyways.
