Digital Companion II

Hello, I attempted to get this project off the ground here a while back but unfortunately finances dried up, however now we are back and looking to put in the cash ASAP so here are my requirements again: We are looking to build a chatbot engine that operates in a similar fashion to that of [login to view URL] We would require easily editable software that ran on OS X Leopard. Previous experience with A.I. and chatbots is a benefit, as well some minimal graphic design knowledge. The design would comprise of several main components: - Input text area - a simple chat window for the user to enter text for the chatbot - A sending button, where the input would be sent to be analysed - Output Text - A simple chat window where the chatbot would respond via text - Output Graphic - Java/Flash/GIF/other possible area where appropriate graphic responses would be presented as well as a representation of the chatbot. The sending button would require input to be put through an appropriate MySQL knowledge base and searched by three engines (special, matrix & one word) before an appropriate text and visual response was identified. Please respond with any relevant background information, previous projects and a brief overview of how you would intend to implement our plans. Thank you for your time, I hope to speak with you soon.
