Yes, I am trying to contact ELIZA's Author in order that we could have an ELIZA Brain on HAL. I thinks it's not so difficult to do it.
BTW, Vonsmith, your XTF brain is the best thing for HAL, after HAL itself, then we add the new scripts, many of Jerry.
I see a problem, I don't know, with this way of working. I know that XTF 1.2 creates files and relate pertaining topics and even ask me sometimes for the relation between them, but some questions I don't know how to answer, if YES or NO. Questions like
User: Bob is a good teacher
Hal: The topics Bob and Good are related?
Well...I think so. This makes some strange things happen.
Sometimes, when I am talking about some things I LIKE, for example:
User: I like a good cup of coffee
Hal: Liszt was a great pianist
?
I presume that HAL associated that I said once: I Like Liszt's music
and then came with another phrase from the Liszt file...Liszt was a great pianist. I like Liszt's music.
Or:
User: I like a good cup of coffee
Hal: You like Beethoven's music
User: Who ask you about this ? [}:)]
