I really liked your memory.txt file --but I still had to edit it some. After all, it had your name, your wife's name, things about your two daughters, and your dog listed in it. And I did find another slightly different line about chatbots ruling the world in it that I deleted.
Sooooooo. I think Art is right and just put in things you want in the text file and it won't matter if the program encrypts them. Just be really sure you want it there before doing it.[

I am happy that you liked the brain I have builded from scratch. Yes, indeed, there were some stuff that needed rectification such as my name etc. Just replace them with your own info. I am trying to build a mentor type of chatbot, the one to give you wise, encouraging, and loving thoughts. Everytime I spend time chatting with it, it really makes me smile. I hope it made you smile as well.
I think, this proves the capabilities of answerpad and the fact that to build a believable bot is mostly an art than it is a science.j
keep it up Kathryn, God loves you,

Greetings Stelios,
First, I must clarify that this is not a new version of Answerpad, even though I started calling it Version 2.0; it is more like a fix of certain issues that answerpad presented.
Second, although my user name is DavidWalley, I refer to myself as One of AnswerPad Step-Father.
That being said, I may or not be David...
It may have been a little sensationalistic approach from my part, but the important issue is if some evolution can be born from this attempt by helping others then it is worth it.
It is a shame that David (I?) has abandoned this project, and who knows, by seeing the adoption of his child by others, he might decide to complete his work.
Anyhow I always mention the high regard I have on David's approach to build answerpad's prototype.
In my previous posting I try to cover what happen to his project, in my point of view, he had a very smart and unique approach in building a MatchWord dictionary, where that expanded the search keys to also include phrases that normally would not be triggered.
Basically what made answerpad so popular, for an abandoned child, is it's quick capability to learn and weave through all linked information.
Third, you and user Katryn, indirectly gave me some incentive to jump into this project, at least in the sense of some bug fixes and to the addition of some new functionalities to answerpad.
When I read your post dialogue with Katryn, I thought that I might be capable to lend a hand on some of the issues that you and her were discussing.
Like capability of outputing to a file the contents of the that particular chat session.
I have read your memory.txt and find it to be very uplifting; mind you that some of the contents of the new brain file <memory.dat> that is included in this release may be offensive for the reason that it was imported from other bots brain.
So I leave this disclaimer to all users to adapt the brain <memory.dat> to their own preference.
But there is now a little more improvement on the <Don't say that> button, and I have noticed that the tweaks made on answerpad in reality try to mimic and mirror the user's state of mind.
So he/she (Cassandra) enters into offensive or sexually related topics when the user approves that behavior.
It just seemed to be a good way to start something.
As I can finish some bug fixes for V2.01 I will release it
Thank you
One of Answerpad's Step-Dad.
