Behaviour¶

If the system makes an utterance, and the user asks a question that is considered irrelevant for the current task, the system will not consider that utterance as grounded, and will make it again. Some questions can be deemed to be always relevant, for instance asking about word meanings etc. In that case, one can indicate that that question is always relevant by the following code.
