That's right! I've completed the first version of Hal the irc bot. Written in java using the Pircbot api, Hal is a chatting bot that stores words said to it in a small database, notes what words can lead to others, what words can start sentences, and what words can end sentences, and then constructs randomized sentences based on this knowledge. I think Hal describes his operation best...
Hal : There man fucking awesome i think i'm notice he's doing here (second to fuck are you after this room is a file containing predefined stuff when you never have and by idling while people talk
There you have it, folks. We have now amongst us a budding young intellect. He's mildly incoherent, but that can be considered a sign of genius. He's also a bit incoporial... He must get that from his mother.
Happy father's day to me! I'm out.
