Robot Soul

I regard a bot that I create primarily as an Actor.

I define Actor using "Meyerhold's formula":


Actor = Creator + Medium


For my current purpose, I define Medium as:

Medium = AIML

However, the language choice is largely arbitrary: AIML can be substituted by any computational language or system that is Turing-complete. It's a generalized process that I'm interested in; a high-level representation of that process could be written as:

Creator creates Actor using Medium
