Folks,

On the chatbot, my thinking is how can we make the chatbot rely on content 
in a tiddlywiki, such as a knowledge base built with tiddlers fields and 
tags, perhaps TOC's or for example a genealogical tree such that the chat 
bot can be asked questions who's answers are sourced from the content of 
the wiki. eg; Does tony have an uncle, who are tony's aunts and uncles? 
Does fred have any living siblings? A bit like a Structured Query language 
in a chatbot.

It would allow for another level of abstraction, that is given a knowledge 
base provide the user with a way to ask questions of it. I could imagine 
later even using this code, to code solutions at the higher abstraction 
level so rather than a list widget you use a query or question to list a 
set.

To do this we need to find away to get the content to map to a data model 
that the bot can make use of and visa versa. The expert systems of old and 
the decision trees of big data and machine learning of today can easily be 
represented on top of tiddlywiki. It would be dreamy to allow these to be 
developed freely on tiddlywiki but then have a chatbot able to interpret 
plain language and respond with the knowledge. The 4th generation 
programming languages of the past which tiddlywiki, especially the list and 
set handling features is more than adequate for emulating, could be 
personified through a chat bot.

Perhaps we first start with allowing the chat bot to respond to questions 
in tiddlywiki terms eg; have you any tasks due today, where "tasks" and 
"today" are defined, tasks defined by the wiki by the wiki designer, today 
as part of the tool set. So ideally we need to give the chatbot a way to 
look into the content, rather than put the content into the chatbot.

Food for thought
