Hi Horizons,

I don't know if it is really what you want, anyway it's some good sites
about AI:

I'm looking for one of those bots that you talk to and it gradually learns
to speak like a human being.

Hello,

I am not sure that those technologies exist.

On the other hand, there are some chatterbot technologies that can talk,
an can "learn" to a certain extend.
Pratically, the learning is supervized, which means this learning is assisted
by a human being. The idea it to register in a log file all the question.
Then the software assist you by proposing you new rules
(*if some says something*) == answer ==> something).
Those rules are identified by analysing the log file.

Exemple of bots that use this approach:

AskJeeves
http://www.AskJeeves.com/
But this technology is not available (or al least very expensive).

AliceBot
http://www.alicebot.org/
This technology is open source java.
It is very interesting and it is free.

AliceBot is written in java, and therefore can not directly
connected to active world.
However, I may in the future try to connect it to Active World
through AWSDKJava. http://www.insead.fr/CALT/Project/AWJavaBots/
(I do not have time to do it in the sort term, but if you want to
do this coonection yourself or know someone who wants to ....)


Note:
Do not expect a high level intelligence though some intelligence however from
those
beasties. On the other hand they should be very usefull to write bots that are
able to answer
question on a product, etc.
They can also be quite funny, and at some point attract audience.


For other information about bots and other "beasties" have a look at:

Take a look at http://bots.internet.com/. It's probably one of the best
sources on the net for bots of all sorts.
Percipient.

Oh, you'll probably find http://bots.internet.com/search/s-chat.htm the most
interesting section.
