The hash table, which is central to most databases, can return a reference given a key. If the key is not defined, it will return nil (or you can add a new key). EDS works like this for sure. What ALICE does is to use natural language as a key ... (without any actual parsing ... just simple reduction). When a key (=sentence) is inputed, then ALICE will always return a reference. What it returns may be concise or just some defallt answer for that category. ALICE has about 40000 categories today (it can be expeanded to anything). You may say these categories are sorting all natural sentences into a category. Then the creator of ALICE says that if current chatterbot cannot handle the request (beyond a default asnwer), then it should be possible to pass the request to another chatterbot (today the technology is right there).
