I've heard that toady plans to improve language eventually, but I'm wondering what the theoretical limit is. The most obvious example (edit:spitballing follows here) that jumps to mind is cleverbot, but i doubt that dwarf fortress could contain quite that much information in quite so many instances. The next was crowdsourcing it by some kind of situation generator with which we supplied appropriate anecdotes and where then vetted, but again i have my doubts. I would like to have, reactive, fluid, interesting conversation one day, perhaps even with body language if that idea of depicting dwarf faces in ASCII ever comes through, and i don't want to be limited to three options in my reply. Those with more technical prowess, i eagerly await your musings.

after reading this i went and had a conversation with cleaverbot that could easily arise in future versions of DF


I am looking for the children the goblins took.
What are you looking for?
Children.
Where were the children?
I dont know thats why im looking for them.
I think I'll call you Vi.

having done that and come up with nothing i went seeking a wiser ai so i talked to igod

Me:
  i am looking for the children the goblins took
God:
You might find that I am  the children the goblins took.
Me:
 realy
God:
For real.
Me:
 lets get you home
God:
I would like to do that too.

I shouldn't have laughed at that.
