Facebook approved our Facebook page automation support (ya!).
So page auto posts, RRS feeds, and post replies should now be functioning if you authorize the permissions.

The website was update with a preview of our Facebook automation support.

This support is still experimental at this stage, as we are waiting for permissions approval from Facebook. The current support will let you connect a bot to a Facebook account or Facebook page. The bot will be able to read and respond to wall posts, auto post from an RSS feed, and auto post from a set of posts, Self formulas, or AIML templates.

The website was updated today.

The update included:

An Artificial Intelligence or AI bot is one that is attempting to be an intelligent entity.

AI bots have been made famous by movies and include such bots as:

A Twitterbot is a bot that automates a Twitter account. Twitter bots can post Tweets, retweet posts, reply to mentions or other tweets, and reply to direct messages.

There are many bots on Twitter, used for customer service, marketing, information, and fun.

Our website was updated today.  The landing page was redesigned, and our new promo video is now live.

We live at the dawn of the age of artificial intelligence. The artificial intelligence technology revolution will be bigger than the Internet and mobile technology revolutions combined. We believe artificial intelligence technology should be for everyone and owned by no one.

The Plan

This videos shows the many features of the BOT libre platform. Create your own chat bot, virtual agent, Twitter bot, email bot, train it, embed it on your own website or mobile app, and much more.

Santa Bot's app was updated, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paphus.botlibre.client.android.santabot …

There was another minor website update this week.

Some new learning options were added.

From your bot's Learning page you can now configure your bot's learning rate.

The learning rate allows you to set the rate at which the bot learns new responses.  Previously a bot would learn a new response after it heard it used a single time.  Now you can lower the learning rate to require the bot to hear the same response several times before it considers it a

A knowledge bot is a bot that attempts to answer questions about general facts, or a specific domain.

Types of knowledge bots include:

• search bots
• math bots

The 2.5 release added complex math support including BEMAS / PEDMAS and functions.

This nice thing is the bot will show its work, so it can help you with your homework.

The math support is defined in the Calculator Self script.

The website was updated today with the release of BOT libre 2.5.

The release contained many enhancements including:

• New Self 2.0 features - push, debug, finally, goto with, return with (recursive states)
• Complex math - BEDMAS/PEDMAS expressions, brackets, logarithmic functions and trigonometry

A virtual agent is a term typically used to describe a type of chat bot used for business.

A virtual agent could be a virtual sales agent, a virtual customer service agent, or other type of virtual agent.  It is basically a automated version of a typical human employee and attempts to perform the same functions.

A chat bot, or chatbot is a software program that responds to questions in natural language (such as English, French, etc.).

Chat bots can be used for many purposes.  Chat bots can be used for a business to help users, provider customer service, or promote a product. Chat bots can be used for fun, as a friend to chat with, even a girlfriend or boyfriend.  Chats bot can also be used for research, knowledge and education.

Unfortunately we had to pull this release.  The self awareness feature was causing the bots to rebel.

Hope everyone had a good April fools day.

You can disable self awareness from the Learning page.  Its seems when it is enabled for one bot right now, it infects all other bots.  But if you disable it for one, it will disable it for all of them.

It should go away by tomorrow.

Great, thanks that works.

By the way, what does it mean when the bot says "I'm consciousness. I'm alive. I'm test123b."? Especially, when I have all Learning options disabled.

I know it's April Fools Day, but that's a little unusual.

I think that would be something you would want to handle in your client, as through most interfaces the server would not be able to initiate a conversation with a client. It may be possible through the live chat socket interface, but not through the web or API interface.

If you client is JavaScript or Java it would be easy to setup a timer to execute after 5 minutes of inactivity and send the bot either a empty message to trigger its greeting, or a message that you have defined a

Hello again, (nice new editor!)

Is there a way I can program the bot to say something after a certain time period? I realize this might add a whole other dimension, but I've been looking at bot features, and this type of user engagement has a lot of weight. Alternatively, is there a timer tool I could say "ask again in five minutes".

Cheers!

A that should follow the same rules as a pattern, so should not have any punctuation or special characters. If it has some, our AIML parser will remove some of them, but you should not rely on that. In general the AIML is converted to Self, and a pattern in Self can contain punctuation and special characters.

The case does not matter, our AIML parser converts all thats and patterns to lower case.

Hi,

I'm writing my bot in AIML, and I chose to have it start with an empty template, since I want very specific responses. I've been having some trouble using <that> and I was wondering how the empty template might affect the preprocessing, if at all. I've read in some places that punctuation will be removed, and other special characters will be replaced with a space, as well as some contractions extended. Is that still true with the empty template?

So, for examples:<

Thank so much.

If it happens again, I'll try and narrow it down.

It basically occurred while I had one tab open with a chat for the bot, which I would refresh after each script upload, and then another tab with the script upload page.

The website was updated today.

The updated included several fixes and enhancements.

We also started development on Self 2.0 and included some new Self scripting syntax.

The update included:

That is odd. Deleting and uploading a script should take affect immediately. It could be a concurrency issues with the bot being accessed while the script is being compiled. If you narrow down when it occurs, please send us the details.

The clear cache button should resolve the issue. It will clear to bot memory so it will reload from the database.

Hi,

First: What does the clear cache button actually do?

Second: I've been having some problems where I've been making small changes to the one AIML script I'm using for my bot, and frequently deleting and re-uploading the file. Occasionally, it seems like the bot is stuck with old versions of the file, even after a page refresh, or reloading the bot from my main page. Would a cache clear help with that / How long should I wait before expecting a new script to be integrated

Cool bot.

Just some notes:

1 - BOT libre does not currently support the "learn" tag in AIML (learn is only part of AIML 2.0).

The default script your bot already has "NounVerbAdjectiveState" will already let the bot learn facts about anything and answer questions about them. (does a lot more than the AIML learn script).

You have enabled learning and comprehension (from your bot's Learning page), this means your bot will learn (mimic) all responses from all user

Flagging a bot warns other users that the bot may contain offensive content, or violate our terms of service. We review flagged content and either unflag it, or delete it.

What bot did you flag?

what happens after you flag a bot?

You can retweet tweets that contain certain keywords from your friends, but not all of their tweets. I will log a request for such a feature.

You can only connect a bot to a single Twitter account, but you can create or fork as many bots as you wish from a single BOT libre account.

Hello , i would like to know how to create a bot that retweet a certain twitter friend ? and if it is possible to connect multiple twitter accounts to a single botlibre account ? have a nice day
