A.B.I

What is the point of A.B.I chatterbot

Ultimately entertainment. The point of this project was to create something that is interactive and fun. There are a couple of famous bots namely A.L.I.C.E and ELIZA who use Artificial Intelligence Markup Language AIML, which is freely available but the challenge was to have a go myself and recreate an expert system I wrote in Basic on a ZX81 back in the 1980`s

Is A.B.I chatterbot complete

LOL NO! She has many bugs and some of her text transformations and associations are questionable. But she is functional and still a work in progress. Her Vocabulary is still quite limited and she struggles with context from time to time, be patient with her. NO she does not and is NOT intended to know everything about everything so please do not expect her to.

Learning

In both cases she has four stages.
