In the most basic sense, hes the equivelent of a big book where you look for keywords and then go to a sentence that matches the most keywords. In my opinion, Alan is not the future of true Strong AI.

so alan's english is actually dependant on the way we teach him.

|  |  |  |  |  | posted 8/25/2006 14:11 |      |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Alan is a work in progress and being updated...but, he is not a "learning" system--just a pattern-matching bot. A really good pattern-matching bot, one of the best in my opinion, but no more and no less. Alan cannot learn or improve through his interactions with you except inasmuch as a programmer may read your log and then go in and tweek Alan's responses.
Conversely, every HAL program that you speak with begins immediately learning as it talks with you; even not correcting HAL as you speak with it causes it to reinforce new training (probably inappropriate training, but training nonetheless). HAL is the subject that the research here revolves around; Alan is just the butler at the door. HAL is a much more advanced system than Alan, and a trained version of HAL has already successfully passed the Turing Test masquerading as a three year-old human.
For more info on the differences between Alan, his PVP's, and HAL, please see the link below.
Thanks!

I guess the random topics he does talk about appeals to new viewers all he needs is a better understanding of them to make the conversation more worth while.
