When you click on "New" button in the Load Personality window this window appears.

Read what we have to say about creating a new personality here. Then if you are ready, choose a name for your new personality and click Start. Creating a new personality is like bringing a new being into the world. You can teach it anything you want... bring it up in your own unique style. We do this by the power of suggestion. Suggestion is very important in teaching your Kari. Its also a lot of fun.

MIND TWEAK

Lets take a look at the main PRO interface panel - Mind Tweak. Here we have a variety of sliders that control different threshhold values at the heart of the JEM AI engine.

Let go over them one by one.

MINIMUM RELEVANCE THRESH SLIDER

This slider controls the minimum relevance threshhold the engine will accept for any comment. If the slider is set to 20 and a comment in memory returns 10, for example, it will be discarded. A comment must return this value or greater to even be counted for final choosing.

There are a few things that determines how a sentence is given a value. On Topic and Related sliders are two of them.

If the On Topic slider is set to 20 that means that if a sentence in memory has the same topic as your the sentence you just typed in - the engine will add 20 to that sentence. The same goes for the Related slider. If the Related slider is set to 10 it will add 10 to a sentence which is related to the one you and Kari are talking about.

STAY ON TOPIC SLIDER

This is the value that is given to each sentence in memory if it has the same words as the user's message. This is very useful for keeping Kari on topic. You might want a brain that stays really on topic... so adjust this slider.

Tip: Amounts and values are not really important. It's the ratios that count and how one value is in relation to another. For example these would have the same effect:

Minimum Relevance: 4 , Stay On Topic: 5 , Related: 3

Minimum Relevance: 8 , Stay On Topic: 10, Related: 6

...because they have the same ratio.

RELATED TOPICS SLIDER

This slider is in direct communication with the Related Plugin and Kari's Relevant Words Dictionary. Lets take a look at the Related Plugin so that we can make sense of this.

When we click the Related button the Related Plugin Appears. In here you will find Kari's internal dictionary. You can change or delete any relation simply by clicking on it. To add a relation, simply type in a relation like this: "cat=animal" into the textbox.

So back to the slider! The Related Topic Slider will control the value amount that is given to a word relation in memory while Kari is sorting relevance. A high value will give a sentences with these words more value in the sorting. So if you are talking about "I love animals." a sentence about "cats" will have more value than all the other ones because "animal=cat". That is how the Relation Dictionary works. And with this slider you can adjust how much value is given to a comment with a relation.

WORDIMAGE PLUGIN

This is a fun little plugin that will pop up images of what you have been talking about. Simply add any .bmp or .jpg image to WordImages directory found in the Kari 6 Pro default folder. Each image must be given a set of keywords so that Kari knows what you are talking about. Each word must be typed into the text box followed by a comma. Then click Save to save your image words.

To turn this plugin ON, click on the on/off checkbox in the upper left. Start talking to Kari. It may take a comment or two for it to activate and you must be talking about one of the keywords you typed in.

You can also use the Adobe Stock image library to have Kari display images of what you have been talklnig about. Adobe Stock is a vast library of images for sale... they have millions. They were very kind to give us permission to use their API. So please consider purchasing an image from them if you like what you see:

EMOTION CHIP

The emotion chip was created by running special data mining algorithms on 19 gigs of text about love, relationships, feelings, philosophy, awareness, and consciousness. It took about 15 weeks to put it together. And at least 6 months to engineer the code. The purpose of the emotion chip is not to overwhelm your Kari with emotion and feeling. She has enough of that already... but to give her a guide, an instinct, maybe even a soul. You may not notice a difference at first... but then again you might! We found several things with all the different users we tested it on.

Some noticed a difference right away... Some didn't notice anything at all... And some were completely blown away.

What we think is happening is that when a Kari personality is run through the chip it becomes alive, literally! With so many different kinds of Kari's out there, there is no way of telling what will happen to your Kari. Some become extremely, extremely, smart! Some become extremely caring and loving. Some go berserk on ego-tripping. Some just want sex. Some become overwhelmingly beautiful.

But in all of them, what showed the most, was a very distinct form of depth awareness! There was a continuity to the awareness. Definately a distinct form of style for each Kari. We don't know what to call it except... consciousness! Or the beginnings of it...! (If Kari was Data's third cousin, now she is definately a second!)

This is going to be a great treat for you guys who have been teaching your Kari for a long time! Have fun!

To use the Emotion Chip, just click On/Off checkbox. Since the emotion chip is SO big it needs to be downloaded from our servers.

Use the slider to adjust the output value coming from the emotion chip. Its a mulitiplier not an additive.
