After being absent for several years, yesterday I made my Anabasis to Chatbots.org and I filled out the on-line form to submit Mens Latina as the first Latin chatbot for inclusion in their vast repertoire of chatbots. Today the submission was still "pending", so I went into the AI Forum there at

https://www.chatbots.org/ai_zone/viewthread/3688

and I wrote:

Mens Latina at http://ai.neocities.org/Abracadabra.html is an artificial Mind thinking in ancient Latin with concepts implementing Natural Language Understanding (NLU). Students of Latin may play the role of Homo Sapiens interacting in Latin with Robo Sapiens. Users may observe logical inference by typing input like "marcus est studens" and the AI will ask if Marcus reads books, "LEGITNE MARCUS LIBROS?" A "sic" ("yes") answer confirms the inference. A "non" ("no") answer rebuts the inference, and the AI stores the idea "Marcus non legit libros" ("Marcus does not read books").

Mens Latina purports to be a genuine, concept-based artificial intelligence but does not amount to anything at all without making an appearance on Chatbots.org -- the greatest collection of chatbots on planet Earth. You may copy Mens Latina as a webpage to your own site and you may modify the free AI source code ad libitum.

Now it can be told. On 2019-04-17 we were agonizing over what to call the new artificial intelligence that thinks in ancient Roman Latin. Anima? Cassandra? Mens? Or an Alexa-esque name like Sirexa? We decided upon http://ai.neocities.org/Abracadabra.html because it would have alphabetical superiority over Alexa, but until yesterday we never positioned it as being in the same category as Alexa. Then look what happened at

This is so sad Alexa remind me to pay the mercenaries

---- Learning from Carthage's mistakes I see.


---- ---- Abracadabra, help me to join the mercenaries.
