Wow this is looking good. I hope it can later be incorporated into the robots I will be working on. The buy in price was so low i could not help but go ahead and support this project.

It sounds as though it uses a lot of the same as Pandora Bots to be honest
It'll be neat if it is successful. I'm always looking toward integration new features
I do see he has a lot of challenges ahead.
Wish I could integrate with Siri! The speech recognition in Siri blows my mind.
Re: Siri... Technically you can, but it will cost. Nuance, the VR engine behind SIRI offers a product and multi-platform api called NINA, but being a commercial hosted product, it may cost more than you want to spend. If they price it like their other hosted VRU products, it will be billed per minute of use. (I was just involved in writing an rfp and contract with them for a different speech technology. I can't disclose their prices, but it is going to cost my company well over a million per year).
Google recognition is getting pretty good and there are web/iPhone and Android api's for it, and so far it is free.

thetechguru i have iphone 4 s whit siri standard on it.you mean, if i use it i have to pay for it?
@Nomad18.08, no, but apple is paying when anyone uses it.
if you owned a company that had a product that used speech recognition, and you chose to use the product that siri uses for speech recognition, you would have to pay to use that product to have it be a part of your product.
ah lucky again.thank you
Just re-watched the video and I am convinced that it's nothing more than integration with PandoraBots or an offline version of PandoraBots. Basically this means the functionality of this "AI" is already in ARC.
Unless I have missed something (other than the pretty looking system resources info dotted around the app and a command to look up on facebook - which I'm not convinced isn't scripted information anyway).
Try it. Add a PandoraBots control or log on to pandorabots and run the same commands, the responses are largely the same... Spend some time training the bot and your answers could be exactly the same. Spend some time with the control and you will have a robot that is better than what they are offering.
I did not get very far with Pandora. She froze ARC with me and killed the keyboard momentarily until I shut her down. It seems she needs a lot of training.
