Talk about clever, try this out! Web-bots cousin.

Haha wow! This is a great find S&F!
I'm going to have to stop wasting time on this, I'm having so many hysterical conversations on this!

Example: (after a conversation about God)
Me: Stop assigning random names to me.
Bot: What do you do with your friends?
Me: Smash computers to pieces.
Bot: I would love to smash you.
Me: Is that a threat?
Bot: That is a proposal.



Or this one...

Me: The cake is a lie.
Bot: No, the cake is a pie, and the pie is a spy, and the spy is a lie.
Me: If the spy is a lie, then the pie is a lie, which means the cake is a lie.
Bot: Yes, the cake is a lie, but not on my birthday.
Me: The cake is always a lie.
Bot: EXACTLY. Thank you for agreeing with me.
Me: When is your birthday?
Bot: National spam day.



This is just too great.

Thanks for shariing!!! brilliant find.

I asked if aliens exits?........ it said probably but UFO's aren't aliens.

lol

No, it's not really AI. It's a take-off on the Eliza program, which simulates the responses of a "Rogerian" therapist. Eliza has got to be 15 or 20 years old at least. It followed a simple plot of trying to reflect back to the user words it perceived as "trigger" words. Like,

"My mother said I had to come here"

"How do you feel about your mother?"

That sort of thing.

This cleverbot no doubt has a much more complicated algorithm, plus a larger database of information to draw from. I'm not convinced that this alone indicates "intelligence".

What I really think is that the cleverbot illustrates how much of our interactions are more or less reflexive, not actually intelligent conversation but social discourse. We're not so much exchanging information as simply offering "strokes", acts of support, recognition, etc. "How are you?" is more of a greeting than an inquiry into your health. A good bit of what we say and do is just social behavior.

Cleverbot doesn't pass the Turing test. When I asked it "Who are you?" it responded, "I like pie." That is not what an ordinary human would say.



At least it's got a sense of humor...

User: 2012.

Cleverbot: 2012 is when the world will end.

User: Aliens.

Cleverbot: You?

User: No.

Cleverbot: Sure your not, which is why in the beginning you said you were.

User: Ok I am an alien.

Cleverbot: You're not an alien.

User: You just said I was.

Cleverbot: No, I did not.

User: I can prove it.

Cleverbot: Fine! Prove it!

User: Well scroll up and read what you put there.

Cleverbot: Where do you live?

User: Are you a pedo?

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: I thought so.

Cleverbot: You made me say it.

LOLOLOL

your welcome, i had such a crappy day today adn find this when i got home certainly gave me what i needed.

Sometimes it does give outlandish replies, though sometimes it does give good replies and continueing conversation.

To that i guess that sometimes it becomes overwhelmed. Imagine how many of us from ATS just tapped it in the last few hours, ontop of any1 else on the internet.

me - where are you?
bot - In school. Where are you?
me - Behind you, look out the window
bot - I don't have a window.
me - wrong school then
bot - What do you mean I'm a blonde so don't use big words.

lol - it just links you to some other users who are in on the joke - I think they can even see you type in real time, and I asked what time it was and the 'bot' said something past 4pm, where it's past 8am here in the UK, so where ever it is, it's 8 hours ahead (if they were telling the truth)

Nexus, a pie ? a spy ? and a lie ? lol.
To top it off , National Spam Day for its Birthday.

I also just asked it if nasa or the us government are hiding anything from the rest of the population.

Its reply was yes and when asked what it replied knowledge.

I enquired further and it said knowledge of artificial intelligence.


I really don't wanna go to work now.... this is too much fun

*****POTENTIAL WARNING******!!!!!

I just had a random re-direct to a bingo web site soon after using that site... Any one else? I consider my computer to be pretty clean, I hope that site ain't pushing mal ware...

most of what it said to me made no contextual sense.

Oh well...

Can george please stop arguing with his guests. I asked the cleverbot that and it laughed at me. It was kinda rude to me. Much fun, much fun.

There are different kinds of bots like this. I don't know if this one is Eliza, but it's not really "clever" compared to some other bots online.
It's responses depend on what you say. For example, if you say <2012> there are a number of responses that it has for that, and it will take one at random. At least that's how the bots I've known have worked, and I believe this is one of those.
Back in the day when AIM was popular and the chat rooms were not so full of bots, there was a website, www.runabot.com It no longer works, but it used to offer people a bot program where you could download something called a "chatrunner", and you could put your bot in chat rooms and watch people talk to it. People usually went into the conversation thinking the bot was a person.
You start out with the basic Eliza or Alice or whatever bot you prefer (Alice was the best), and then you could modify its responses and create "modules" where you could easily program whole conversations and make your bot sound as real as you want, because it's all preprogrammed from either the bot's original responses or whatever responses you put in. It was freaking hilarious at times.

I searched and runabot.com is no longer working, but if you really, really wanted to, you could "create your own bot" at www.pandorabots.com

Where are you?

That's private information.{}

Come to me then.

Please punish me, master.{}

no.

Please please please please please.{}

Cleverbot: Yes you did.

User: No, I did not.

Cleverbot: Please don't lie.

Stupid thing kept insisting that I was AI, and it was a piece of cheese.

I saw some old AIM bots that did better years ago.
