The Bakshi Project

[sikhness]

Sangat Ji,

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

Allow me to introduce you to Bakshi. A sikh bot. Please click here to read our project details. He is running on the software, A.L.I.C.E. (Artificial Linguistic Internet Computer Entity). Talking to Bakshi is just like talking to a real person, but remember you are really chatting with a machine! A.L.I.C.E.s engine utilizes AIML (Artificial Intelligence Markup Language) to form responses to your questions and inputs. Bakshi is the first internet Sikhbot ever to be created!

We have started training Bakshi to respond like an actual Sikh would respond to your questions. Our goal is to have Bakshi trained to the point of a Sikh being able to have a full conversation with him. This is where you come in. Bakshi is in BETA testing. We encourage you to talk to him. Ask him questions and see how he responds. When you find errors in his responses, please use the link on the project page and send us a full list of corrections you have noted during your conversation, so that we can use your data to train Bakshi to respond more accurately the next time. This is an ongoing project, and will take some time to reach our goal. Once the sangat feels that our goal is reached, we will release the fully trained code for Bakshi to all other sikhi-related websites so that they can include him on their respected webpages. Please contact us if you would like to add Bakshi to your webpage during the BETA testing. We can give you the code and help you set it up. All we ask is that during this testing phase, you leave the linkback to these project details, so that people can learn more about the Bakshi project. You will not have to do any updating to your website during the training process, as the most recently updated Bakshibot will appear automatically.

So, how do we use it? Ask Bakshi a question or simply start chatting with him, in the ASK area of the box. Bakshi will give you his reply, and from there on, you can start chatting with him. After his reply, hitting the TAB button on your keyboard will bring the cursor back into the ASK area of the box. This will be much easier than using your mouse to reposition the cursor after every answer. There is a project link at the bottom of the box, which will bring you to the project details. If you find any bugs, want to make training corrections, have any suggestions/comments/questions, or would just like to drop us a line, please do so using the link on the project details page.

Sangat Ji, we encourage you to help us achieve our goal to display Bakshi on various places all over the internet. This can help educate people about sikhs and who we are, and hopefully even inspire our own youth with a fun approach to sikhi. There is no limit on the number of tools that we can use to educate our youth. We hope that the Bakshi Project is one that they find different, interesting, and helpful. With Waheguru Jis kirpa, and your help, we hope to make this project a complete success. Thank you for your time.

* Bakshi can be found on our main page, to the right, when you scroll down. He is open for chatting with everyone, including guests. You do not have to be a member of this forum to chat with him, although, we would love for you to join our community!

Khalsa productions,

Thank you for trying it out.. Sure, you can have the code for your sites... thanks for the support... i just added vaheguru ji ka khalsa, vaheguru ji ki fateh.. i had forgotten to add different spellings for words, and have added this to his database as well now... i'm sorry, i know some people (not you) are getting frustrated, because it's not perfectly answering all questions yet, but i can assure you that everyday we update the database more and more... that's why it's a project, and it will take time... slowly we will reach our goal... i appreciate all those of you who are supporting the project in a positive way... thanks again.....
