<p>Even smart people say stupid things, and we are all familiar with the experience of having said something stupid (or just average) and realizing later that one could have said something exceedingly clever. To prevent people from saying stupid things and to help users appear as smart as possible, the mod_iq jabberd module provides hints to users regarding what to say at a given point in a conversation, based on the advanced linguistic analysis technologies described under <link url='#impl'>Implementation Guidelines</link> below. A user can ask for a hint by sending the complete message to the server itself, wrapped in a &QUERY; element qualified by the 'jabber:iq:iq' namespace. (While it may be argued that this functionality could be provided client-side, thus saving a roundtrip, it is consistent with the Jabber philosophy of "smart servers, dumb clients" as explained in &xep0134;.)</p> <p>Even smart people say stupid things, and we are all familiar with the experience of having said something stupid (or just average) and realizing later that one could have said something exceedingly clever.

<p>The mod_iq jabberd module makes use of several Analytical Language Engine (ALE) technologies for determining the intelligence of specific messages and thus also a user's IM IQ (the average of all messages sent). These technologies include the following:</p> <p>The mod_iq jabberd module makes use of several Analytical Language Engine (ALE) technologies for determining the intelligence of specific messages and thus also a user's IM IQ (the average of all messages sent).
