Rabbi: Exploring the Inner World through Stories
نویسنده
چکیده
In the light of this interest, I designed "Rabbi", a conversational storytelling system that simulates a rabbi with a repertoire of Hasidic stories to offer as indirect counsel. It approaches narrative through a psycho-social theory of discourse which looks not only at the linguistic structures of the text but also at the socio-cultural context in which the contract between teller and listener occurs. "Rabbi" uses rich interaction instead of complex matching and indexing techniques (Schank et al. 1981; Domeshek, 1992) to provide a meaningful experience for the user.
