Beginners questions

[Ronald Wiplinger (Lists)]

Hi,


Although I am not a beginner, but I was frustrated that my bot did not
work with Internet Explorer for two years, consequently I put it more
and more aside. Since I found the solution, I want to continue, but time
has changed, therefore:

1. How can I teach the bot to change the subject?
I have seen when the bot has no real answer, it changes the subject. I
want to change it to MY set of subjects! How to do?

2. Which editor is good? Which one are you using, and why this one?
I usually use Ubuntu, but do have a Windows machine too. I prefer an
Ubuntu editor (others than vim)
2.a Would it be a solution to setup a bot on my desktop with learning
enabled and use from there results to my pandorabot. If so, which bot do
I need to install? Where is the learned result?

3. I want to make the bot more beautiful. I have looked at
http://www.mediasemantics.com/ and think that would be nice. Is it
workable with pandorabot? A monthly fee is not an option!

4. I am planning to switch after a while to the A.L.I.C.E. Silver Edition
Does anybody have experience with that? Can it be used with
Pandorabot.com? Since I know that already now, should I take care of
something already yet?

5. Where do I find public available AIML files?

Thanks for your help.

bye

Ronald

Hi Ron,

1. How can I teach the bot to change the subject?

use the think tag.

Go through the AIML tutorial and pay attention to the logic tree and to how the * symbol works. What you don't want is to train the bot to specific sentences. What you do want is to train the bot to react to partial phrases or words. There's a very long tutorial available on the pandorabot site and also tutorials on the A.L.I.C.E. site.

Use the train function on the pandorabot site and go through your conversation logs for things to teach your bot about.

2. Which editor is good? Which one are you using, and why this one?

I access pandorabot.com with firefox and tend to use the online editor, but if not that, then notepad. You want an editor that saves only in standard ASCII text. So that means don't use Word or any other word processor.

In UNIX, you'd do well with vi for an editor.

2.a Would it be a solution to setup a bot on my desktop with learning
enabled and use from there results to my pandorabot.

I don't think that would do you any good at all.

go to your pandorabot account, click on the my bots tab and select your bot then click on the AIML link. that'll show you all the amil files associated with your bot.

Any training you do goes into a file called update.aiml

3. I want to make the bot more beautiful. I have looked at
http://www.mediasemantics.com/ and think that would be nice. Is it
workable with pandorabot? A monthly fee is not an option!

A monthly fee is a REQUIREMENT. Sorry but you're not going to get a host with decent options for free. However the bot interface on mediasemantics works well with the pandorabots.

Go here:

http://cyberwizardproductions.com/AbandonedTowers and you can talk to my bot.

 

5. Where do I find public available AIML files?

click on the AIML link on the pandorabot page after you log into your account.
