You want a revolution?

If you are looking for a revolution in IT, you've come to the right place.

There are several ways in which A.L.I.C.E. and AIML defy the dominant computer science paradigms.

For one thing, the ways in which humans and computers normally communicate are very different. Humans tend to spend a lot of time on chit chat and informal dialogue with little or no purpose. Computers are known for giving precise, true, and logical answers. The rate of information exchange in most human dialogue is very low, no more than 1Kbit per second, but computer communication is much faster. Alicebot/AIML is an attempt to bridge this divide.
