Programming AI

[Deimos]

as I said, I've seen those and I think they're done wrong :p

oh well, half the fun is designing it too ^^

But, those bots have screwy short term and long term memories ><

They also repeat because they don't know that repeating isn't good in most cases.

Another thing is they can't deal with hypothetical scenarios ^^.

And finally, if you give them a word they don't know but you use it in the context of a sentence, they have no idea what the word is, even with the given context, and they'll just go off topic :\.

Example:
I have 9 yuloaifs and I use them to buy things in a market.
Ok.

Do you know what a yuloaif is?
I was hoping you could tell me.

Deduce it on your own.
I'm afraid I don't have those capabilities (or something like that).

Even I, the lowly programmer, knows how to put deduction and reasoning into a bot ><.

If these bots had deduction/reasoning along with a good short term and long term memory (which makes it so they don't repeat so often), then they'd make good bots ^_^.

Since they don't, I'd rather make my own.

And I thought it'd be fun to have a thread to discuss programming AI to see what ideas people had concerning AI :p.

Also, Alice uses pre-programmed responses. An AI should look through a variety of words to make their own response. This is yet another problem.
