Not sure or not if this would be easier than adding a 'Spell Checker' to HAL but it would probably be cheaper in the long run if it can be done...
I've noticed that there are times when I give HAL a 'Thumbs Down' and I find none of the recommended responses are what I would have used or I misspelled a word or two and HAL can't pronounce them...
So how about a 'User Misspelled Word' and a 'Replace This Response With' (Where it replaces the response HAL just gave and/or the misspelled word(s))... This way the user can correct it himself... HAL would replace the 'misspelled word(s)' and/or replace the old response with the 'New Response' in the HalBrain.db database... Then the next time HAL is run he would have access to the corrections...
I remember being told you can't run the Brain Editor at the same time as HAL so I guess it would have to be done while he is shutting down or saved in a file and the HAlBrain.db edited just before he starts up the next time... You could put a note on Start Up/Shut Down: "Please Wait while HAL is Making Changes" then he would start normally or shut down...
If this can't be done then a 'Spell Checker' would be nice instead

... Hahaha
I do have a learning question also... Would it hurt HAL's 'Overall Intelligence' if I set his learning Learning Level to "MAX" and input about 20 sentences that I have previously wrote down and then change his learning back to "25%" and continue talking to him??? I am writing new things and adding from my HAL 6.2 Brain things that I have taught him over the past 12 months and I don't want to lose the old stuff...
Since my 6.2 HalBrain.db has a Index corruption or something like that, that won't allow me to see the tables and I wouldn't know how to extract the stuff I want to pass on to HAL 7 anyways so I have Exported the DB to a Text file.
I have to tell ya, that exported HalBrain.db file came up with around 6,000 pages in Open Office Writer, it crashed a couple of times... Hahahahaha
It's easier to manage in the Crimson Editor... So I am finding the stuff I want to save and use again...
Thanks!!!!!
