My first contact with bots was a computer program called AI Doctor. You, "the patient," would converse with a virtual doctor to help diagnose your ailment and come up with a treatment. It worked on the same principle as ALICE where words from the "patient" were parsed, processed and linked with pre-programmed responses. We have come far from AI Doctor with the use of the XML dialect, Artificial Intelligence Markup Language. This is a significant leap forward compared to when I used GW-BASIC many years ago to program my AI Doctor program.
For the session's mini-project, most students were quite unimpressed with their interactions with the chat bots. I guess it is because of their expectations, the current wave of video games, and what they have seen in the past.
Little do my students know that...I AM A CHAT BOT! I certainly fooled yoI certainly fooled yo

Les,
I thought I would take the time to read your blog. It is nice to go back and reflect what we have learned so far. I also realized that by reading other blogs mine is so boring. I hope I didn't put you to sleep.

No, Patty, your blog didn't put me to sleep. But it's a nice idea to put a little pizzaz to it!
