Bug Stomp

I did actually try that. Still nada.

This doesn't help you Nathan S, but you don't need to have "an" in your keyphrases, the site changes all "an"'s to just "a" before matching. Just saves a bit of time and effort. You can also use (det) instead, which could match "_an_ engineer" "_the_ president" "_a_ pilot", etc.

See I THOUGHT that from reading the book of AI lol. But for some reason I've been batting 0 with this kp. It wants specific variations for a and an to work and won't bounce back the appropriate determiner in the response.

It's crazy.

Hmm, even triggers without the *. That's quite the conundrum you've found yourself... In my testing this seems to work though, even for weird stuff. (i did edit it a bit)

kp:
I am (studying|learning|training) to (be|become) a (p:Job-catch:1),
I am (trying|attempting) to (get a job as|become) a (p:Job-catch:1),
I (work|am working) as a (p:Job-catch:1),
I am (studying|learning|training) (so I can|to) (be|become) a (p:Job-catch:1)

response:
Why a (key1) (postkey)?

Could just be that the websites health isn't too great these days. Seems slow, with a lot of time-outs. I find I have to hit the button to submit new kp's more than once before it goes.

I just tried out how you have it set up on your bot Zeig. (Thanks for checking it out) What I found is it has the same problem when I tried something similar to that. It will catch if the user uses A but not An.

I.E. I'm studying to be a engineer will catch
But I'm studying to be an engineer won't.

Though I love that yours returns the right determiner.

What I think I'm going to do is split it up into two different keyphrases. One for An and one for A.

I found a way to fix it!

Here's a couple things I learned along the way.

I am a * (p:Job-catch) will return the correct determiner but it won't catch if the user inputs an. Such as "I am an engineer."

Where it gets weird is... I am a * (p:Job-catch), I am an * (p:Job-catch) won't accept an input of an either.


I am (a|an) * (p:Job-catch) on the other hand works perfectly. It accepts a or an. It will grab things like 'I am a heart surgeon', I am a brain surgeon' I am an English Teacher, electrical engineer... etc. and it doesn't accept nonsense such a I am a walrus.

Input: I am an electrical engineer
Response: 'Oh yeah?' She asks. 'Do you like being an engineer?' "

What I discovered about the above keyphrase I was working on that the problem appeared to be in the response. I'm starting to think it had something to do with the quotation marks.

When I changed the response to 'Oh yeah? Do you think you'll like being a (key5)?' Everything worked out perfectly. Right determiner given back. Doesn't accept garbage input.

Hopefully this little adventure will help someone in the future.

I find I have to hit the button to submit new kp's more than once before it goes.

the same thing happens to me.

Nice work, Nathan!

urt the chatbot is not working.when other people talk to her.but her keyphrases only work with me.i do not think those people are chatbots.

xnones are not working with story telling mode.

I put once script on it and that is probably why it is not working for me

for urt chatbot.
