I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to AI systems; if there's a chat bot out there, I've probably had a go at it once or twice...

4of6 was based on A.L.I.C.E., which is a Loebner Prize-winning chat bot engine. I joined these forums long after 4of6 disappeared, but I've used bots based on A.L.I.C.E. before, and haven't been too impressed with their ability to carry out a conversation, and to make relevant remarks or ask suitable questions.

The best I've seen thus far has been, bizarrely, Jabberwacky (http://www.jabberwacky.com). Two bots based on Jabberwacky, named George and Joan, also won the Loebner Prize in 2005 and 2006, respectively. It'd be nice to get a Jabberwacky-based bot for these forums but I don't think it's available to install on private forum sites yet.

It would be kind of cool to bring in an AI chat bot and teach it about basic 406 maintenance - sort of an interactive FAQ.

2008 (E60 LCI) BMW 525i M-Sport, 3.0 litre Petrol. Carbonschwarz Metallic. Black Dakota Leather and Myrtlewood interior.

It's obviously a her!!! We're mostly blokes on this forum so by default the bot has to be female. Besides Nick knew exactly what he was doing naming her 4of6, conjouring images of Jeri Ryan as 7of9, that boy ain't dull :oops:

That was the plan with 4of6 I think but she was never really that clever, just used to talk bollocks mostly :lol: . P'raps she couldn't understand my Welsh accent :? :lol:

Still it was an interesting feature of the site, it'd ge good to have it back.
