ALICE does not claim at all to be a Mind; I definitely
claim that the Mentifex AI is a Mind, and it is in the
official Usenet AI FAQ as such (just FYI).

http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/jsaimind.html -- the AI
for Internet Explorer -- has been making great progress.
It now has a true but primitive Parser module.
The Rejuvenate module now works flawlessly.
New Chomskyan syntax structures are being coded
with a view towards demonstrating an ability to reason.

ATM:
Please keep checking back in periodically on the AI above and on
http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/mind4th.html -- in Win32Forth.
The AI is not _randomly_ "putting together combinations
of the words," but rather it conceptualizes each word
and builds up a knowledge base of associations among concepts.
Have patience, please.
