Hi,

That is what was done in the Speak Activity so it can provide a
good model.

If we made a "python block" front end to the AIML engine, we could use
it in Turtle Art. I've not played with AIML, but it looks to be fairly
straight forward.

Hi,

Just a footnote. There may be some who are not aware that Alice is based on
AIML:

http://www.alicebot.org/aiml.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIML

The AIML engine in Speak is written in Python.

An intriguing idea is to make a teachable bot:

This could result in a dialog like this:

type: hello
response: I don't know what to say.
type: say: hello
response: hello
type: How are you?
response: I don't know what to say.
type: say: I'm fine, thanks. How are you?
response: I'm fine, thanks. How are you?
type: Goodbye
response: I dont' know what to say.
type say: Goodbye

AIML is a way to give rules on how to respond to an input. It has a default
response when none of the rules are triggered. The default response in Alice
is randomly chosen from a set of alternatives. However, the default response
could always be 'I don't not what to say' or 'bitte'. The response 'say:'
could then trigger the engine to add the response as a rule.

Another intriguing idea is to add the AIML engine to chat so that alice
could participate. In the AIML model, Alice would not enter the conversation
except in response to questions.
