Ultra Hal 7.0 / Frustration Setting In . . .
« on: March 19, 2005, 03:56:35 pm »
circuits3000,
Hal is a chat bot first and foremost.
Voice recognition is still at an early
stage in its evolutionary development.
There are a lot of variables that can cause
words to be misinterpreted by common voice
rec programs...mic quality, settings, position
relative to the user's mouth, pronunciation,
speaker's volume, background noise, whether
the user runs words together (slurs) or even
local dialects with accents or drawls (y'all).
In coming years voice rec will get better but
it's not quite there yet. Hal, while a great
experiment in AI, does work better with typed
input than spoken, from what I've found.
Tech support does exist but with Mr. Medeksza's
schedule, one can usually get a faster response
by posting to the forum here.
Don't forget to make use of the SEARCH feature
at the top right. Chances are your questions may
have already been addressed / answered.
As is with most things, Hal requires a bit of
patience in order to develop into that unique
personality that most of us here have come to
enjoy!
Welcome to the forum and if there's anything in
particular that you need help with...just let us
know.
Best wishes....
