Online Counseling Group Therapy Creative Support *CYBORGS* ContentLength: 3686
OK No, I didn't. Do you mean I should look atvar-log-messages? I didn't realize that it would have that kind of detailed information about my user process. Sure, but my point...
I have a plan to build a robotic cyborg that can facillitate communication online, and can be programmed similar to Alice to discuss almost any topic. My plan is to build the robotic end of this program, and find psychiatric professionals to program it to talk with ordinary people about their lives and give them support and counseling, instead of having to deal with unmoderated forums, or networks of people who might take advantage of a vulnerable person in a moderated forum. This plan would be better than myspace for people who were lonely, or didn't want to divulge personal information to strangers online. I've used myspace before and I didn't have any friends that ever even wrote me, and I think that is true for most people unless you are a young attractive girl.
So here is the plan. The cyborg is programmed as a search engine, and the counselor or technical support person is trained to pick a programmed response using the engine. When a person chats to the cyborg, the search engine automatically runs a search and then the support agent can pick the first response. Once the first response is picked, the program goes into 20 questions mode, and the next response is based on an understanding of what the first answer to the users question was.
But if the support agent can't find an appropriate question, he can move backwards into the tree of 20 questions, and browse through other possible lines of questions and answers before actually selecting a response.
I think you're saying that I should do the following: (1) In one terminal window, as root, execute tail -fvar-log-messages (2) In another terminal window, run my program. (3) Watch...
It seems easy to program the robot to do this, but harder to come up with questions for every topic.

Anyone want to work on this project with me, or take it from here? On AOL, technical support people use a program just like this to answer questions, and have tons of refrences to automatically search through to come up with complicated answers. And can provide links to more in depth information. They even train the people on the phone to talk with users according to a simpler script to help them keep clients, and get buisness.
To top it off they are paying people who can barely speak english in India, 10 cents an hour to do this job, and they are starving!
