Creating a simple AI program in Python can be fun! For this example, let's create a basic chatbot that can respond to user inputs. This chatbot will use simple pattern matching to generate responses.

Here's a simple Python program using a while loop for interaction. You can run this on PythonAnywhere:

# chatbot.py

def chatbot_response(user_input):
    user_input = user_input.lower()
    
    if "hello" in user_input:
        return "Hello! How can I help you today?"
    elif "how are you" in user_input:
        return "I'm just a program, but thanks for asking! How about you?"
    elif "your name" in user_input:
        return "I am a simple chatbot created to assist you."
    elif "bye" in user_input:
        return "Goodbye! Have a great day!"
    else:
        return "I'm sorry, I don't understand that."

def main():
    print("Welcome to the chatbot! Type 'bye' to exit.")
    while True:
        user_input = input("You: ")
        if user_input.lower() == "bye":
            print(chatbot_response(user_input))
            break
        response = chatbot_response(user_input)
        print("Chatbot:", response)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Instructions to Run the Program on PythonAnywhere

  1. Sign in to PythonAnywhere: Go to pythonanywhere.com and log in or create an account.

  2. Create a new file:

    • Go to the "Files" tab.
    • Click on "New file".
    • Name the file chatbot.py.
  3. Copy the code above:

    • Paste the code into the newly created file and save it.
  4. Run the program:

    • Open a new Bash console from the "Consoles" tab.
    • In the console, navigate to the directory where you saved the chatbot.py file (if necessary).
    • Run the program by typing:
      python3 chatbot.py
      
  5. Interact with the chatbot: You can now type in your messages, and the chatbot will respond accordingly.

Notes

  • Make sure you use Python 3 when running the program since the print function syntax and input handling are suited for Python 3.
  • This chatbot is quite simple and does not use any machine learning; it's based on keyword matching. You can expand it by adding more patterns or integrating with libraries like NLTK or a pre-trained model if you want to go deeper into AI.
