Resting response

Open gunthercox opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Under some circumstances, saying nothing is a valid response. I am considering experimenting with adding functionality for a special response type that indicates that the bot should not respond. It would also be interesting to see if a long pause in a conversation with a user could be interpreted as a non-response in which case the bot could learn to reply with something like "Are you still there?".


Possible attributes

  • duration - the length of time that the pause lasts

Use cases

  • An adapter needs a default response for a case where it should not respond (0 confidence)
  • A filter removes all possible responses

I think this can turned into questions bot-user,

  1. If user repeating same questions asking Are you a robot?
  2. Restrict users flooding with chat message other than corpus data
