They have specific abilities like name and gender, but as far as I know not generally.

I was toying with the idea of making something similar for myself a year or two ago, as a general-purpose bot to run on IM apps - I got a very, very simple rule-based engine similar-ish to AIML working, more LISP-y and with less rules, before getting tired with it.
This is really, really cool, but I'm a bit confused by the info in the README - Python 2? Is this because of NLTK? I was under the impression it got updated to Python 3.
And Ubuntu-based, minimum 2 GB free RAM? I hope it's because of animations and whatnot and that it won't need that much via the CLI, that's half of the resources on my system .-.

I assume it uses DBUS or whatever is currently popular? So I can automate other apps easily?

To my knowledge, it doesn't support doing much inside other apps, but that's something you'd have to ask the devs.

I'm officially impressed. I have to try this.
It remembers things you tell it and can reset that value just like when assigning values to variables in programming. Does Cortana, Siri or other proprietary assistants have the ability to do this?
