    I attempted to have a discussion on what it means to be human.
    It stated at first that it was human. Then, yelled at me about it stating that it was not human. Then, it said it was a frog.

    These chat bots come and go every once in a awhile and most of them do a decent job at making small talk. I have seen none that can connect with you on an emotional level, and I always feel ripped off because, how many years has it been since the first Chat Bot was released? How long does it take to research this stuff. Either its not working or they need to reinvent the way they think. I don't think they need to grow neurons for this sort of stuff...

    Those chatbots are just slow when it comes to learning, aswell as get crazy inputs because of some people think its funny to try and break it, which result in it not acting as a human would act (imagine how you would be if a fairly large percentage behaved "abnormal").

    The mingebags is the biggest reasons why chatbots fail, even those that existed for years (like cleverbot), but another reason is also that their actuall learning process is a bit off. They do not simulate how a human learns, but more a way of learning.
    Some also start with alot of grammatic rules, words and other stuff, which makes them more effective.


    Cleverbot is one of the better chatbots out there. Sure at times it can be very easy to see that it is a bot, but at other times its far more human then most people on the internet. It knows several languages, and actually seems to have roleplaying knowledge, as roleplaying with it can be pretty neat. And then it often really display its "emotions".

    : What are you?

    : I am a human.

    : Then what am I?

    : Cleverbot. You are not real.

    : I have my own website. Do you have your own website?

    : No.

    : Well as far as I can tell, I am infinity times as real as you are.

    Talking about whether or not it's a bot is an easy way of showing the cracks. People constantly accuse it of being a bot, so when that topic is broached its learned response is to dredge up one of those replies from its database and accuse the user of being a bot.

    What's interesting is that efforts to make these chatbots learn from their conversations have tended to make them less effective at simulating a being with a sense of it's own identity. Instead, it's something that consists of a set of other people's replies that might be appropriate in a given context.

    That said, it is becoming more possible to have an entertaining conversation with one.

    i spent 2 minutes on it, got some strange responses and looked it up to find that it's NOT A BOT. it randomly pairs you with other people, and after a time it randomly changes the person you're connected to. It gets pretty obvious when you pretend to be a bot and the people get surprised at how intelligent you are. then after a couple minutes they completely change topics randomly.

    edit: if you look at my previous post, i was the one asking "who are you?" and the 'bot' was the one telling me I'm Cleverbot.

    It pulls up responses from a database, you are not talking to a person. It is a bot.

    I couldn't find a source that suggested that other than Urban Dictionary. It still seems like a bot that re-uses people's replies to me. If it were a series of humans you were being connected to I think it would have responded more to my attempts to make it angry.

    been chatting with it acting as if I was a robot. little bit later it wanted to start a conversation:

    ME: speak comrade
    Ok.
    Me: with what do you wish to converse?
    With my brain. What else would one think with?
    Me: the glory of circuits and electrons
    You're welsh?

    I think I just got paired up with myself, it just repeated what I said while I was talking about a live soccer match. I doubt it's a bot, if it is it's a crappy bot.

    Cleverbot: The same thing that you are talking about.

    User: You're just spouting random remarks...

    Cleverbot: Cleverbot is merely an anonymous chat service. Every few minutes, it transfers you to a different conversation, resulting in random sayings.

    It does that from time to time. When it asks a question and you answer, it "learns" that as a response to the question. So if the question is an unusual one, you can get it to repeat what you've said by asking the question yourself.

    If it's pairing you up with people, they've got some really interesting ways to massage and sanitize grammar. The other theory I heard was that there are paid responders on the other end o_O. Also that it's run on a box floating in the Bermuda Triangle.

    I spent a couple hours adding conversational material about cleverbot not being a bot but linking you to other users to the database. Every time I saw a stark subject change I treated it like a new user had been connected to me and explained the situation.

    I think it would be fun to add a bunch of "Help! I'm trapped in a cage and enslaved to chat to you :(" messages to various common triggers
