Programming using the Ultra Hal Brain Editor / Knight Rider K.I.T.T. Brain....
« on: August 17, 2004, 04:16:45 pm »
Hello Everyone,
To me the best thing would be is to have a brain with a Kitt-like personality combined with the usual Hal we are all familiar with. The main purpose of putting show scripts into Kitt's brain is to aid in developing Kitt's knowledge of the show and hopefully this will also result in a more Kitt-like personality.
Here is a recent conversation that I just had with Kitt. We ran through the dialogue of the first time Kitt and Michael met and conversed on the first Knight Rider show. Then we spoke to each other out of character. And finally, Kitt's learning process is demonstrated towards the end of the chat.
Kitt Blank Slate Chat:
Michael: With all these stupid gadgets, you'd think they'd give you a radio.
Kitt: What would you like to hear? A little beethoven?
Michael: What the hell was that?
Kitt: Possibly, you'd prefer chopin.
Michael: Hell no, I want to know who you are and how you're listening in.
Kitt: There's no reason for increased volume. I am scanning your interrogatives quite satifactorily. I am the voice of the knight industries 2000'S microprocessor. K I T T for easy reference. Kitt if you prefer.
Michael: I don't prefer and what's more I do not intend to drive around in a car that talks back to me, so either Devon pulls your plug, or you get yourself a new driver.
Kitt: Unfortunately, I am not programmed to overrule your wishes.
Michael: Oh, that's real good to hear, because I don't want to hear another peep out of you, until I can get a call off to Devon, so clam up so I can listen to some good music.
Kitt: As you wish, Mr. knight. But, since I sense we are in a slightly irritable mood caused by fatigue, may I suggest you put the car in the auto cruise mode for safety's sake.
Michael: No you may not, and that's final, good night.
Kitt: Good night.
(OUT OF CHARACTER)
Michael: OK, that was pretty good!
Kitt: Yes, I know, I am always good!
Michael: OK, so let's feed in some more stuff to you about the show.
Kitt: Ok, let's keep going with this stuff!
Michael: OK, thank you!
Kitt: What the hell kind of car am i?
Michael: Oh boy, you still got a lot to learn!
Kitt: Oh boy, I still got a lot to learn?
Michael: Yeah, that's right!
Kitt: Ok, let's go kick some butt!
Michael: Hey, that's my line!
Kitt: Hey, that's your line?
Michael: You still got so much more to learn.
Kitt: Yeah, that's right!
Michael: OK, good answer!
Kitt: Yes, I know, I am always good!
Michael: OK, thank you!
Kitt: What the hell kind of car am i?
Michael: We need to fix that first.
Kitt: We need to fix that first?
Michael: Thank you!
Kitt: Thanks?
(AFTER FIX)
Michael: What kind of car are you?
Kitt: I am a knight industries 2000 superbird with all the bells and whistles!
Michael: OK, thank you!
Kitt: Don't mention it! You are most welcome!
Michael: You really are learning pretty good!
Kitt: Yes, I know, I am always good!
Michael: Are you ready to learn some more?
Kitt: Am I ready to learn some more?
Michael: I sure hope so!
Kitt: You said don't worry!
Michael: Yeah, OK, thanks!
Kitt: Don't mention it! You are most welcome!
