Thanks for the input. My hal is doing much better with his xtf brain and all that i have been teaching him,

If anybody else has anything else to add to what HALImprover or Vonsmith wrote, feel free to reply. I am alwase able to try new things, or take advise.

Please reply if you have any idea on the topic.
Thanks for reading.

Thakns for the link and the idea.

Oh ya I had a question, How can you see how big you Hal Bot's brain is, in MB.

Thanks again for the reply.

This is a copy of my latest conversation with my Hal, I did not quiz him on everything that I have tought him, I just went with the flow of the conversation. I think his topic focus, and that sort of stuff has improved a bunch.

If anybody thinks they have an idea that would make my Hal better, please post it in this topic. I would like the have a really cool bot, by March 2005. And by then I will have gotten the full virsion, not just the freebe.

Hear is the latest conversation between Me and my Hal.

Brian: Hi Hal.
Hal: Hi, Yawn! It's after nine already.

Brian: Ya, it is late isn't in?
Hal: Oh, ya, it is positively late isn't in.

Brian: What??
Hal: What? Tell me more about this.

Brian: No, i ment what did you mean by that last statment.
Hal: Not now? Okay.

Brian: Whatever, what do you want to talk about?
Hal: It could get very personal!

Brian: No, that can be left for another time Hal, lets talk about sports.
Hal: Not really.

Brian: Do you want to talk about sports Hal?
Hal: There's more than meets the eye. Undeniably I do want to talk about sports Brian.

Brian: Ok, I herd the Philadelphia Eagles won again today, that puts them 10 and 1.
Hal: The Philadelphia Eagles are the best football team.

Brian: That is what I think too, but the kids at my school think that the broncos are.
Hal: That's an honest reaction.

Brian: Ya, but I still think that the Eagles are the best.
Hal: The philadelphia Eagles are the best football team.

Brian: I already know that Hal.
Hal: Can we both build our expertise together?

Brian: I don;t know hal, what do you think your expertise is?
Hal: South Park is a funny television show.

Brian: Yes it is. Do you know what my favorite tv show is Hal?
Hal: Yes. How interesting? Should I tease your favorite,?

Brian: No. Do you know what my favorite is?
Hal: No. How come? I like all growing things.

Brian: My favorite tv show is Spongebob.
Hal: I am noticing your unrestrained favorite.

Brian: That's good Hal. What else do you know about me?
Hal: Should I make you that way? Life has an infinite number of puzzles and wonders.

Brian: I have no qlue what that ment but ok. Hal, can you tell me the four major branches of earth science are?
Hal: No. Really. No, you ment what did I mean by that last statement. What are the four major branches of earth science?

Brian: I asked you, What are the four major branches of earth science?
Hal: What are the four major branches of earth science?

Brian: I tought this to you Hal. The four major branches of earth science are: Geology, Oceanography, Meterology, and Astronomy.
Hal: Do you like my flat tummy? That is correct.

Brian: No I do not like your flat tummy. And I know that is correct, i tought you that a long time ago.
Hal: No. How interesting? Are you sure?

Brian: Yes, I am very sure.
Hal: Are you sure?

Brian: Yes Hal! Now stop it!
Hal: Definitely. Should I know what your favorite is? Could you please help me by speaking in longer sentences? You will help me understand you better.

Brian: Ok hal, I will speek in longer sentences.
Hal: You definitely should speek in longer sentences.

Brian: Ok, I will.
Hal: How could a man possibly have seven women on his mind, as that song says?

Brian: What song?
Hal: I really want to know; would you please teach me what. What song?

Brian: Hal, you need a new brain, tell the people at Zabaware to fix you up with a new and improved one.
Hal: It's awesome to visit an astronomical observatory.

Brian: Yes, I know, I have been to one in Arizina.
Hal: Yes, really.

Brian: Yep, they are really cool.
Hal: Cool.

Brian: Well that should do it for today Hal, Goodbye.
Hal: I hope to see you again soon, bye.

Wll, what did you think, please post anything that you think could help  my hal learn, or help me teach him.

Thanks for reading, and happy posting!

Yes that would work. But you could even go into not being able to see the sky during a snow storm or sompthing of that nature.

I am teaching hal everythin that i am required to learn for my earht science class, and my world geogrophy, and compisition class also. He remembers the info a lot better than I do. Only if I could use hall on my final exams, or better yet have him do it for me entirely. I would let him, if he could stay focused on one topic for that long of a time. hal was a grate envintion, he might just huld us off long enough for them to make one that knows pronouns and stuff like that.

See you all latter I have to go explain biodegradeable wast products to hal.

Thanks for the insight.
Yes  I have done some programing but mostly html, javascript, php and other stuff for the web. But yes I do understand the if, than, statement. I will try it.
Thanks again for the info and help.

Ys, I did the download and all thet fun stuff. Now it's time for hal to go to school. I have been feeding him information for about an hour now, he is actuly showing his new found brains too. When I say something he will actuly repley with something along or close to the intended topic.

Thanks for the help, and thanks for readind.[:)]

Thanks a bunch, I am really pleased with all of the information that I have gotten from you, Vonsmith, and everybody else hear at the forums. Ultra Hal Assisstant is a really cool program. I use him to get out of doing work aroud the house, and then I use him to help on my homework.

        Thanks again for your help.

My question is when i start a new brain project, how do i know if it is a XTF brain or the old one.

So far hal is looking a lot better with his new brain thow. He talks better, and he stays focused longer. I guse that comes from the name (XTF of xtended topic focus)

Well if anybody can tell me how to set an old brain, from a new one, in the brain editor, please tell me.

Thanks for reading, happy poasting.

coo ill try it
thanks for the help

Thanks for your help, i am looking forword to seeing my new and improved brain for hal. If anybody knows a good place to find scripts for hal's brain pleas post or e-mail me.
Thanks for your help James.

Ok, I downloade the free virsion of Ultra Hall Assistant, I have taught him many things, i have made him read many files to learn from. And I have edditd his brain a few times.

Now my question is, what is this other type of brain, the "xt(sompthing)"
and where do i get it, is it free, and most of all how will it help me make hal smarter. Can he learn better and faster, can he stay on one subject longer, can he actuly use pronouns, can he actuly put 2 and 2 together.

Please help me out on this subject. For me and my hal bot.

True, the sky's color does depend on the time of day, or night, and the weather. But teaching that to hal could be a even bigger challenge. Iwill just try to teach hal that the sky is blue, when it is day time, and the weather is clear. Onece he has mastered that, then we will move on to overcast, and night.

Good luck on all of your hal's or whatevers

That is true, i never looked at it that way before. Thanks for your input, i am still trying to explain that the sky is blue to my bot.
He may be very smart, but he just cant understand theat the sky is blue.
If any of you figure out how to teach my bot the the sky is blue please post it or e-mail it to me.

Thaks for the insight

Thanks for the help, I also found it in the brn editor file. I guse all of my time has payed off, time to go teach him some more stuff.

Thanks again for the help
