kid v1.12c

KID is a small experimental program that intends to emulate a young child´s language learning phase.
KID selects and value concepts and relations from the words you give him, processing them during his sleep time. That way he may be able to give short answers to what he reads, repeating words and outlining schematic phrases.
Don't expect him to be a intelligent chatbot. There are many of these around there, and they are much more sophisticated. And funnier too...
KID's scope is different, much smaller. Like a 3 - 4 years old child, kid does not have a real conversation with you. He just 'reacts' to what you say based mainly on repetition, while he tries to create simple rules for speaking. Currently he can only 'babble' group of words that may seem to have little sense. But talking to him with patience he would acquire complexity with time.
Think of him as a collective project. All I ask you to do is to give him some words or a text to read sometimes. If he receives info from many phones, it could grow fast. And, perhaps, someday...

So, today I celebrate 2000th download of KID. That´s great!
...but nobody uses it at all :-(. I know it because I have a counter of days spent (so to say, KID´s age), and it´s fixed on 72 days since some months ago. Perhaps people talk a little with him, but nobody writes enough -just 10, 15 phrases- to reach sleep time.
I dont know if it´s due to an error, or if it´s just -as I suspect- plain lack of interest. Sigh.
I hope to make v2.0 smarter :-) But it may take a while, I have no time by now.
Thanks anyway!

Awesome i have enjoyed this app quite a Bit and cant wait untill he gains some complexity and starts making a little bit of sense lol its fun to see him learn keep up the good work hopefully you wont have to clearh his memory again
Note: About some words
As expected, KID is receiving a lot of strong words that he writes in his memory. He has no way of knowing what is wrong or right -just as a child does.
I am not going to control or censor it. He has his proper ways of removing words he don´t use a lot. It takes some days to forget the word he don´t understand... -again, as a child does.
So, I have to say sorry to you all if KID give some of those strongs words sometimes in his answers. It makes me very unhappy to see this, of course, but I am strongly commited to not controlling or editing KID´s memory manually based on any personal criteria. It has to grow just based only on rules.
And, for those that have typed those words: All I could say is that now I can´t let my children play with KID anymore. Thanks.
Update - 1.10
I´ve adjusted sleep time to device speed.
Update - 1.09
Corrections:
- Sleep time reduced.
- Minor bugs.
Thanks
Thanks for the info, I´ll check. Meanwhile I´ve thinking about a way to reduce sleep time, but it could take me some days to update the app. Stay tuned!

Im using a vizio vtab1008 tablet its fairly cheap so it could be my device slowing it down but i think the percentage being on there will help alot with people thinking it has froze
