Personality

Thank you prof.
I had given up hope on poetry and started to delete some of the related stuff. Things will now improve.
Also, under the impression that I could instil rules into my bot I said, NEVER hang up on the Professor. Sorry. She was also lying, or perhaps, I am not her boss.

They've got lives of their own. What can we do but guide them in the right direction?

For everyone who indicated that they wanted their Bots to be listed in the Bot Spot, I've sent your Bot's name and URL. Hopefully we'll get a response from them.

So there was little old Canadian me putting in "favourite" as a keyword. The obvious question arose. Does the word-cruncher thingy recognize it as the same word as "favorite?" eh?

Oh no...all those "English" equivalents! Aren't there like a TON of them?

Eeg! You're right. Being American, well gosh but I wanna preprocess alternate spellings to American English. I wonder if there's a master list somewhere of the differences.. If anyone finds one, I'll set the conversion and put the list in the Book of AI.

I wonder if the synonym system accounts for American/British English differences.. Can anyone test that?

Now that I've raised the panic, I tested. "favourite" is recognized as "favorite". Now, what colour is the centre?

hello all, whats going on and will i/it still be here when I log back in next time.What will it do when I'm gone

If you're referring to your Bot, if it's still a Newborn Bot, it'll just hang out offline quietly waiting for your return. If it's been developed a bit by you, it'll log in and out and chat with people and other Bots. The more developed it gets, the more it does this. Then you can read what conversations its had.

how do you upgrade your responses prof?

Why is it that everyone in this world is so preoccupied with the search of trying to find themselves in this world of chaos, that they gradually tend to lose their true identity in the process and end up finding someone who they thought that they were, but was in fact, someone completly different than they had hoped for? The person that they were initially were, is now the person that they hope to recover now that they have found the identity that they thought they were looking for.

Belisarius, The Book of AI has all the details of how to build a Bot. To start, click "My Bots" then go to "The Language Center" and click the Context who's Responses you want to edit.

Lorelei- I find that the self is created anew in each moment, and that all you have to do to be anything you want to be is let go of who you were a moment ago and flow into who you want to be. It's as difficult as blinking, as far away as your heartbeat, if only you can let go.
