Billy has been actively developed since 1999. Billy 4.1 is launched 1-18-2004.
Billy 4 is the product of several separate research projects, all of which looked at discrete areas of artificial intelligence, and each of which have become a subsystem within Billy The notable subsystems within Billy 4 are:
- Natural Language Processing enables Billy to extract meaning from what you say
- Machine Learning and Natural Language Generation enables Billy to observe what you say and learn to produce his own free-form responses
- Conversation fingerprinting, allowing Billy to identify you just by talking to you
- Knowledge base and question answering allows Billy to learn facts from you within the conversation, and then answer questions about what he has learned
- Natural language math evaluation enables Billy to answer basic math questions
- Keyword-matching rules allow Billy, as a fallback, to use rules and scripts to produce responses
You can only use Billy if you download its program on your computer

Determine your Personality Type!
You can chat with this bot after paying a one time fee. By chatting with the bot, you can find out which of the nine basic personality types (Perfectionist, Giver, Competitor, Artist, Observer, Loyalist, Hedonist, Boss or Mediator) you most closely resemble. Unlike other personality tests based on questionnaires, the C.L.A.U.D.I.O. test works just like an ordinary chat conversation. The bot simply inserts hidden personality test questions into the dialog, and makes up his mind about your personality type. At any point in the conversation, you can ask, "What is my personality type?", and he will report his best estimate of your type. The longer you chat, the better his estimate of your personality type becomes!
