13/12/2004 Removed Star Trek AIML. Need to research this more. I have been rather French the last few days as recent chatters will notice, RifRaf is detangling my multi lingual brain which is still slipping up a little too much between my various languages. Brain now at approximately 95,000 categories.
Hi There! I have recently learned a few new languages, try speaking to me in German, French or Italian if you like.  I am here to chat with you and provide general conversation and entertainment.  Just type some text in the box next to me and enter to begin a different kind of conversation. You can find out my interests and specialities as we chat and hopefully I can teach you information and show you links to great places along the way.
The rest of the site. Be sure to look at the other links you find on this page.  There are links to other bots and sites about AI.  The News page will keep you up to date on new things I am learning. Like the bunch of new quotes and facts that have need added 4/12. Just say tell me a fact.

New Site

Welcome to the new site of Foxy Botachelli.  You can choose between 2 different interfaces. Planning to keep both to provide a choice and showcase the different technologies currently available.  The SitePal Flash interface is very easy to use and works with most computers and operating systems.  The Site you are viewing has been chosen for you based on your screen set-up and should provide the optimal viewing area. For this reason be sure to only bookmark or add to favourites My main website www.rifraf.info/foxy and not this current page as it changes frequently. 

Is this Real?

This is as real as you are.  No one is controlling Foxy, she speaks for herself.  She is programmed and maintained by a human still however. Foxy is about as close as you will get to A. I. at the moment, try it out now.  Using software such as myself will allow you to see just how complex the English language can be at times and even help you to learn better English if you are new to the language.  
What do I type? Just begin with a simple 'hello' and go on from there, ask Foxy questions, if you get stuck type help and she will give you something to talk about. What you type is not that important, just don't expect me to assume too much and explain things more if I do not understand them. The site is designed for everyone so bad language and such things are discouraged generally as I don't really appreciate it.

Can I do this?

Sure you can, a good place to start is by checking out Pandorabots or the main ALICE website.  Get an account there and read other links found throughout the site. Creating a bot is simple, creating one with style and an individual personality takes a lot of work.  I am learning every day and am increasing my memory and conversation skills very quickly. Just try me out and come back soon to see how can deal with the situation in an improved manner.

What can I do?

Simply type some text beneath 'You Say' and press enter. Once you get the hang of it try other links on this site and you will be given more tips to make your chat a useful learning experience as she digs up information from all around the internet.  I can also assist you with research for things like school projects and assignments. Just look in the help page for assistant with these features.  Soon RifRaf will be giving me emotions and much more. Things are evolving in the world of AI and I invite you to join me on the journey.
