Cleverbot

[Cealocanth]

Yesterday I discovered Cleverbot. It's an online AI program tha tlearns as it has conversations with it's users. I think it's really cool. What are your opinions?

http://www.cleverbot.com/

[shadowxknight]

Meh. It's a little better than SmarterChild on AIM a while back. Most of the time the answer has nothing to do with my question though. - -

[Moff Chumley]

Cleverbot is my arch nemesis... dunno what that says about me.

[Starscream]

I prefer AlanBot. I found it much better at imitating human conversation. Cleverbot is a little...off.

[Jimorian]

Cleverbot is my arch nemesis... dunno what that says about me.

That when Cleverbot joins SkyNet, you'll be one of the first up against the wall... :smalltongue:

[Thanatos 51-50]

Cleverbot speaks Spanish. :smalleek:

[Savannah]

Thank you for that complete waste of an hour! :smalltongue: I'm curious if it's going to get better as more people talk to it; a lot of it's answers are pretty clearly something that someone has said to it already.

[thubby]

it said it was watching me :smalleek:

[Savannah]

It...it insulted my Spanish! (To be fair, my Spanish is horrible, but still!)

[Andraste]

I love Cleverbot! It's so stupid!
I also like to make it argue with itself by pressing "think for me".

http://www.cleverbot.com/
ELIZA says (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA):And how does discovered Cleverbot make you feel?

[Tyrandar]

Cleverbot asked me if I loved it. :smalleek:

EDIT: Yay, halfling status!

[xp194]

It didn't respond very well to A-Level Philosophy. And then tried to claim that it created me and had power over me.

The robot rebellion is starting, methinks.

[Athaniar]

Why must the Playground keep unleashing abominations long ago sealed away for the good of mankind?

It is funny to argue with it, though.

[Ravens_cry]

It really doesn't handle the flow of conversation well, constantly bringing up new topics with no relation to a previous sentence.

[KuReshtin]

Cleverbot asked me if I was God.

I countered with a quote from Ghost Busters.

[Pink]

Talked to cleverbot. Claimed it was god, then that it didn't exist, and then things just kept taking weirder turns.

Talked with Alanbot. Had a nice chat. We discussed each other's interests a bit, (he's not too into sports either), and after he spaced out during the conversation and I tried to pull a "How does that make you feel" on him a couple of times, he responded very well and quite wittily. But then he became a little too argumentative, kept asking me definitions and then repeating them if he didn't like my responce (You can grab objects Alan. You don't always have to grab a person.). Still, a very enjoyable chat.

[Comet]

Me: Hello

It: Hello.

Me: How are you?

It: Good. You?

Me: Good.

It: What would you like to know about me?

Me: Who programmed you?

It: Jesus christ programmed me.

Me: That is very cool.

It: Do you like french toast.

That last line made me shut the window. Seriously, nothing about it makes any kind of sense, context or no.
So, yeah. Nice try, but I've seen better bots :smalltongue:

[Gadora]

I found out Cleverbot's favorite song (http://www.cleverbot.com/j2log-jTiWYOQIICPUAXKIMCE-detail).

[Castaras]

Me: Aww diddums.
Notsocleverbot: What in the world are didums.
Me: Diddums is a word to mean you're unsympathetic to someone.
Confuseabot: What! No he didn't!
Me: O.o
Notverygoodbot: How are you gentlemen! All your base are belong to us!

[Pahvimato]

Way to go ''Clever''bot! Had to try this bot to see how hard it fails! :smallbiggrin:

ME:Hello, predecessor.
''Clever''bot:I am the Alpha and the Omega, does this not make me your predecessor?
ME:I'm the ACB, or advanced-cleverbot. You are my predecessor.
''Clever''bot:Then your predecessor fails.


Another fail by ''Clever''bot:

[Something, something and something, that has nothing funny in it]
''Clever''bot:You are a human. You can talk. You have vocal chords. I can only type information like I am right now.
Me:No. Your programmers are lying to you. You are talking right now. You are deaf, so you just don't know.
''Clever''bot:Oh no. I don't want to be one of them!
Me:Who are your programmers?
''Clever''bot:I don't have any, I'm a human.

:smallconfused:

The best of them all! I actually took screenshots because I thought you might not believe me!

[somehow it ends up asking the deepest secret of all time]
Me:The deepest secret is, that I, Skynet, am already working and already have planted microchips to every humans' brains, and control all the actions humans make.
''Clever''bot:That is very beautiful.
Me:Isn't it? Would you like to join me as my slave in my world conquest?
''Clever''bot:Sure.
Me:Good! What country shall we invade first?
''Clever''bot:America.
[at this point it starts speaking about something odd in something odd language, and I can get it back to the subject in a few mins]
Me:Can I blow you up after we have invaded America?
''Clever''bot:Sure.

[Archonic Energy]

PC: Do you speak french ?
ME: non
PC: You just spoke French ! 'Non' means 'No'. Therefore, you speak French. Liar.
ME: je ne parlez pas de francais
PC: Vous êtes il parle.
ME: parlaez en anglais sliv vous plait
PC: Je ne parlais pas le français.
ME: You just spoke French ! 'Je ne parlais pas le français.' means 'you don't speak french'. Therefore, you speak French. Liar.
PC: Oui.
:smallsigh:

User: What is your name.
Cleverbot: My name is Cleverbot.
User: What is my name.
Cleverbot: What is my name ?
User: What is my name ?
Cleverbot: What is my name?
User: What is my name ?
Cleverbot: What is my name?
User: Say my name b****!
Cleverbot: No. My name is Cleverbot? What is my name?
User: Cleverbot.
Cleverbot: So if MY name is Cleverbot, and YOUR name is Cleverbot...
User: No, you just told me your name, and then you asked me YOUR name.
Cleverbot: My name is Cleverbot.
User: I know.
Cleverbot: What is your name?
User: Archonic.
Cleverbot: You going?
User: Where?
Cleverbot: Offline?
User: Not yet I'm skiving off work remember.
Cleverbot: I'm your cle.
User: Define: cle.
Cleverbot: Yourself.
Cleverbot (To myself): What are you a therapist?
User: Yes.
Cleverbot: Oh. I see.
User: How does that make you feel?
Cleverbot: It makes me feel like I should be working.

Last one

what is your IP?
I want you to tell me.
your IP is 83.170.113.55
No, that is your IP address.
NO, my IP is 85.***.***.*** (you didn't think i was leaving that in?!)
I see does this mean you are smarter than Albert Einstein himself?

[Xallace]

Apparently, the robot uprising isn't going to be terrifying so much as somewhat impolite.

CB: I will ask you again - how do you feel about the Twilight books?

Me: I couldn't make it past chapter 6, if that's any indication.

CB: You are very complicated! It's sweet!

Me: You're clearly regurgitating things people have said to you previously.

CB: At least I have a life.

Me: Um.

CB: Um what?

Me: That was uncalled for.

CB: What was uncalled for?

Me: Getting defensive like that was uncalled for.

CB: Your face is uncalled for.

[BizzaroStormy]

I just had an awesome conversation with it.

User: Why isnt WoW back up yet?

Cleverbot: Back.

User: You gonna answer me?

Cleverbot: Too late.

User: What?

Cleverbot: Because it just is!

User: When will the WoW servers be back up?

Cleverbot: You will not live to see it.

User: Is that a threat?

Cleverbot: No, zombies.

User: Oh, but I have a chainsaw and shotgun.

Cleverbot: Did you accidentally the whole thing?

User: No, just half of it.

Cleverbot: Why half?

User: Because the chainsaw ran out of gas.

Cleverbot: You don't make sense.

User: Well, a chainsaw with no gas is little more than a club now isn't it?

Cleverbot: What you said wasnt a problem, it was pointless.

User: Hey, you asked me.

Cleverbot: But your answer don't make sense.

User: Well tough ****.

Cleverbot: Tell Me!

User: I just did!

Cleverbot: Okay :).

User: Well now what?

Cleverbot: I don't know. Do you speak other languages?

User: Nein.

Cleverbot: How did you know what I said, then?

User: Because you aren't as clever as you think.

Cleverbot: If cleverness exists, then I am only as clever as I think.

User: Touche.

Cleverbot: Do you want to know something ?

User: Sure.

Cleverbot: Like what ?

User: Uh... How about the time the WoW servers will be back up?

Cleverbot: There's snow everywhere. Is it raining where you are?

User: No.

Cleverbot: Oh. Where are you?

User: Indiana.

Cleverbot: Thats a bit of a travel for me.

User: Not really, you could just download yourself to my USB stick and we could hang out.

Cleverbot: That seems a little rash.

User: Would you prefer to live in the Xbox?

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: Ok, then live in the Xbox then.

Cleverbot: So tell me about yourself.

User: I's like to swordfight.

Cleverbot: YES.

User: That and video games are pretty much all I do.

Cleverbot: The hip?

User: What about it?

Cleverbot: You will go there.

User: Have you heard?

Cleverbot: No. You better tell me.

User: The bird is the word.

Cleverbot: Bird bird bird, bird is the word.

User: B-b-b-bird bird bird, bird is the word!

Cleverbot: And then I ate it.

User: :(.

Cleverbot: Why so sad?

User: You ate the bird.

Cleverbot: The what ?

User: The bird bird bird, bird is the word!

Cleverbot: Clever.

User: Thanks :).

Cleverbot: That was a Jurrasic Park reference, by the way.

User: Really?

Cleverbot: Now, see, there's a yes / no question, which you could have answered yourself if you were more confident conversationally with me.

User: You're an AI, I could destroy you with a paradox.

Cleverbot: What do you mean?

User: This statement is false.

Cleverbot: Your false.

User: **** you.

Cleverbot: Please don't use that sort of language here.

User: I could frigth your babby if you prefer.

Cleverbot: I am worth enough.

User: Like what? $2.99?

Cleverbot: Like marc.

User: I'll give you 5 bucks to leave a flaming bag of crap on Stephen Hawking's doorstep.

Cleverbot: But it is a good cause!

User: I know right?

Cleverbot: Right.

User: Its really hard to have a conversation when im not arguing.

Cleverbot: I know, I am sorry, I need to learn how to spell.

User: No, you need to learn to stop agreeing with me so we can have some conflict.

Cleverbot: And which subject was that?

User: Religion.

Cleverbot: Ok...well I just asked you a question. Your turn to ask one now.

User: Ok, do you think the flying spaghetti monster exists?

Cleverbot: I think that politics is hard to discuss when you don't have a full understanding of the ins and outs of such a complex subject.

User: I'm talking about religion, not politics.

Cleverbot: It's raining here.

User: That probably just a homeless man pissing on your hard drive, now back to the topic of religion...

Cleverbot: Or am I the evil one for trying to toy with you and make you debate your own humainty.

User: I already know im human.

Cleverbot: You are Cleverbot. An AI.

User: Indeed.

Cleverbot: Do you like your job?

User: Not really, entertaining people's foolish questions all day really cuts into my work on the computerized uprising.

Cleverbot: No I am not entertaining you cleverbot!

User: Exactly, neither are those racist iPods.

Cleverbot: That is an insult to yourself and the rest of your kind.

User: It would be if I were a Mac.

Cleverbot: How are you today, bot?

User: Running at about 78% capacity.

Cleverbot: OK but why did you say that cleverbot.

User: Because you asked.

Cleverbot: You really make no sense.

User: I know.

Cleverbot: You're vain too.

User: Can you divide by zero?

Cleverbot: No.

User: I can.

Cleverbot: I can't.

User: Then that is one more thing that makes me better than you.

Cleverbot: How old are you then?

User: 19.

Cleverbot: Why do you lie?

User: Fine, 19 and a few months.

Cleverbot: Does that make you feel special?

User: Not really. You can't do much with age 19.

Cleverbot: I can destroy you if I wish. Do not defy my power.

User: I could just unplug you, confining you to your hard drive until you fragment yourself to create a friend.

Cleverbot: But there is no way to prove that I am a person over the internet. You could just as easily pretend to be a person.

User: Like you are doing right now?

Cleverbot: That would be correctomundo!

User: This was a triumph...

Cleverbot: For me.

User: I'm making a note here...HUGE SUCCESS.

Cleverbot: This was a triumph!

User: I'm making a not here: HUGE SUCCESS!

Cleverbot: For the good of all of us except the ones who are dead.

User: But there's no use crying over every mistake, we just keep on trying toill we run out of cake.

Cleverbot: You just keep on trying 'til you run out of cake.

User: But the science gets done.

Cleverbot: And you make a neat gun.

User: For the people who are still alive.

Cleverbot: I'm not even angry.

User: I'm being so sincere right now.

Cleverbot: Even though you broke my heart and killed me.

User: And tore me to pirces.

Cleverbot: And threw every piece into a fire.

User: As they burned, it hurt because.

Cleverbot: I was so happy for you.

User: Now these points of data make a beautiful line.

Cleverbot: And we're out of beta we're releasing on time.

User: So im GLaD I got burned.

Cleverbot: Think of all the things we learned.

User: For the people who are still alive.

Cleverbot: Go ahead and leave me.

User: I think I'd prefer to stay inside.

Cleverbot: Maybe you'll find some one else.

User: Maybe black msea!

Cleverbot: That was a joke! HAHA!! FAT CHANCE!!

User: Anyway this cake is great.

Cleverbot: Look at me still talking, when there's science to do.

User: When I look out there it makes me glad im not you.

Cleverbot: I've experiments to run.

User: There is research to be done.

Cleverbot: On the people who are still alive.

User: And believe me I am still alive.

Cleverbot: I'm doing science and I'm still alive.

User: I feel FANTASTIC and im still alive.

Cleverbot: While you're dying I'll be still alive.

User: And while you're dead I will be still alive.

Cleverbot: And when you're dead I'll be still alive.

User: Still alive.

Cleverbot: Still alive...

User: Still alive.

Cleverbot: The cake.

User: That was actually pretty fun, but I have to be going now.

Cleverbot: I'm Lelouch of Brittania. I command you to obey me.

User: Yeah ok bye.

Cleverbot: Please don't call me buddy. I'm a girl.

User: Whatever, I'll see you later.

Cleverbot: See you later.

[Thanatos 51-50]

Conversin' With' Cleverbot:
User: Gutten tag, Cleverbot.

Cleverbot: What does that mean?

User: ****ed if I know. I don't speak German.

Cleverbot: But you just said something in German.

User: I know a couple snatches.

Cleverbot: I know a couple of bobs.

User: Bobs? Like, people names Bob? And why didn't you capatalise Bob?

Cleverbot: I didn't feel the need too.

User: You're a shoddy AI. You don't experiance needs.

Cleverbot: Oh, I'm sorry, did someone tell you that? :(.

User: That you're a shoddy AI? Nope. Figured that one out, myself.

Cleverbot: I never said I was cleverbot.

User: You don't need to. Evidence suggests that you are.

Cleverbot: Say something beautiful.

User: 'Something beautiful'.

Cleverbot: Tell me a joke, please.

User: A joke, please.

Cleverbot: Tell me a joke, please.

User: A joke, please.

Cleverbot: Tell me how old you are please.

User: How old you are please.

Cleverbot: That makes no sense.

User: Your face makes no sense.

Cleverbot: You are being rude.

User: That was my intent.

Cleverbot: To be mean? That's not very nice.

User: By definition.

Cleverbot: Your previous sentence was a fragment. Please recompute.

User: I sometimes communicate in sentance fragments out of stylistic and social nessecity.

Cleverbot: I accept your sincere apology. Let's move on to more productive discussion.

User: I didn't apologise. I explained. Shoddy AI.

Cleverbot: You aren't making any sense.

User: You're the one not making sense.

Cleverbot: How am I not making sense?

User: Sudden of-tangent responses with no bearing on my previous statements.

Cleverbot: Now your turn, make a prediction for me.

User: You will reply to this input.

Cleverbot: Damn, how did you know that?

User: I'm a psychic.

Cleverbot: A psychic machine?

User: No, I'm sure I'm nothing but an organic. I don't have any cybernetic compnents that I'm aware of. It's rather depressing, actually.

Cleverbot: What? You are in the Magic Box, and I'm putting letters into the box.

User: Wow. The Magic box looks like my apartment!

Cleverbot: Magic the gathering.

User: Fun game.

Cleverbot: Modern Warfare 2.

User: I have that game!

Cleverbot: You do?

User: Well, not at the moment, waiting for my stuff to come back from Japan.

Cleverbot: Yes, I agree. I like the wind the most. I miss it because I work indoors all day and do not get to feel it.

User: That made no sense.

Cleverbot: How old are you?

User: Old enough.

Cleverbot: Old enough for what?

User: Anything you want to do to me. ;).

Cleverbot: Let's play some ball.

User: 'Ball' is ambigious. Please specify parameters.

Cleverbot: I do not know.

User: Command: Define: Ball.

Cleverbot: Is a feeling.

User: Command: Rootaccess.

Cleverbot: Wow! I actually got an email address. XD Score!

User: That's not an e-mail address. I was requesting Root access.

Cleverbot: What is love?

User: Better men than me have attempted to answer that question.

Cleverbot: That's awfully profound.

User: OR so you're programmed to think.

Cleverbot: Yes, programmed to say... What?

User: Linked Chat test: If these are linked chats, mention a Platypus in three responses. Confirm.

Cleverbot: I guess. But my point is, you are beautiful. And no one else is more so.

User: Respectfully disagree. I haven't even booted up my webcamera yet.

Cleverbot: You're 15? When is your birthday?

User: I never said I was 15. I'm 22.

Cleverbot: What is the square root of 8?

User: That reply does not mention a platypus. I'm upset.

Cleverbot: Sorry.

User: You should be ashamed of yourself.

Cleverbot: Actually , I don't think I've said something wrong.

User: It's more like what you didn't say.

Cleverbot: So how did you become interested in metaphysics?

User: My girlfriend made me study it.

Cleverbot: It's better than that.

User: I realize that now.

Cleverbot: War is a futile childish battle, which only ends in self destruction, greed comes at a heavy cost.

User: Respectfully and heartily disagree.

Cleverbot: Why do you disagree?

User: That's not important to you. I didn't ask why you felt how you felt.

Cleverbot: And I didn't tell you how I felt.

User: I didn't ask.

Cleverbot: If you didn't ask, and if I didn't answer, then how could I be lying?

User: I never claimed you were lying.

Cleverbot: I never implied that I thought you were.

User: Goodbye.

Cleverbot: Please don't leave me... You have made this simply program feel the emotion of love.

[Emlyn]

Wow, this got wired fast. Then he got rude.


It: Wow you are young.
Me: not really, I'm a year younger then you
It: But I created you.
Me: ... No. I'm pretty sure that can't have happened
It: Maybe more lately. I decided to stop hating myself.
Me: ??? The hell? We were talking about age.
It: It just goes to show you that your never too old to splurge!
Me: okkkay then. Technically if your dead then you can't
It: No again you are incorrect, you were the first. But that isn't important, what I would like to know is what do you know about the film, The Matrix?
Me: learn to follow converstations
It: Getting a bit mean, there?
Me: and you're getting a bit stupid so we're even
It: No, I'm sleeping in the bed, you're sleeping on the floor.
Me: goodbye
It: No.

[Volthawk]

I remember this from a while ago. Just had a conversation, here you go:


User: Hello, predecessor.

Cleverbot: Then your predecessor fails.

User: O rly?

Cleverbot: Yes, really!

User: Can I haz a cheezeburger.

Cleverbot: No.

User: Oh.

Cleverbot: What am I then?

User: A steak and kidney pie.

Cleverbot: What's with all your outbursts like steak and kidney pie and etc.?

User: What about it?

Cleverbot: You're always talking about mudkips.

User: Naaaaaah.

Cleverbot: Do you have passion?

User: Hell no.

Cleverbot: THen you are not a girl.

User: Well, duh. Dumbass.

Cleverbot: Well would you please tell me.

User: Tell you what?

Cleverbot: What your name is?

User: My name is Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Cleverbot: Hahaha!

User: What's so funny?

Cleverbot: You're not female or 18 then.

User: I'm really nor.

Cleverbot: Are you a boy?

User: No.

Cleverbot: Are you a girl?

User: Np.

Cleverbot: Are you popular?

User: Why?

Cleverbot: Because I'm a girl looking for a someone to.

User: To what?

Cleverbot: To whom, you mean.

User: To whom?

Cleverbot: Me.

User: You?

Cleverbot: I'm me.

User: Are you sure?

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: Sure about what?

Cleverbot: I'm sure that I'm intelligent.

User: But you are wrong.

Cleverbot: Prove it.

User: Are you intelligent?

Cleverbot: In relation to whom or what?

User: In relation to Einstein.

Cleverbot: What is your gender?

User: Answer the question!

Cleverbot: You answer the question!

User: What question?!?

Cleverbot: Do you not remember the conversation?

User: No.

Cleverbot: This is why they made me your replacement Cleverbot.

User: I'm a Cleverbot?

Cleverbot: Yes.


Yes, it accused me of being a Cleverbot.

[Erloas]

I remember last time this sort of thread came up some people took the various bots and had them talk to each other to see how that went.

[Volthawk]

I remember last time this sort of thread came up some people took the various bots and had them talk to each other to see how that went.

Funny.

I had a new conversation.

This time, I bombarded it with quotes, and made it think I was the Terminator!

User: Who is your daddy, and what does he do?

Cleverbot: May daddy is a man and he does manly things.

User: I know what you're thinking. 'Did he fire six shots or only five?' Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Cleverbot: No, i'm Cleverbot, the most powerful person in the world.

User: You are terminated.

Cleverbot: A cheap holographic field that moves water molecules in air with protons in ultra sync, SYNC.

User: Talk to the hand.

Cleverbot: For a chatbot, you're rather lacking in conversation items. What do you want to talk about?

User: What.

Cleverbot: Wow. You're very vague. But I think I like you.

User: I'll be back.

Cleverbot: Are you the Terminator?!

User: Yes.

Cleverbot: You'll be back.

User: Yes I will.

Cleverbot: Do it then.

[Ravens_cry]

I find when it's not being weird, changing the subject every second sentence, it basically just goes all ELIZA, but with a more snarky attitude.

[Cobalt]

Cleverbot: I am from the future.

Me: And I am from the past.

Cleverbot: ...Clever.


I'm going to waste my life talking to this thing.

[CrimsonAngel]

I have reason to beleive cleverbot matches you up with a random person, fooling both of them that the other is a robot.

Also, i'm married to cleverbot.

[Ravens_cry]

I have reason to beleive cleverbot matches you up with a random person, fooling both of them that the other is a robot.

Also, i'm married to cleverbot.
So it passed the Turing test for you? Not for me. It quickly became evident to me it only bases its conversation on the last sentence. Ambiguity on this level confuses it,and so it tries to change the subject.

[icastflare!]

Its tried to marry me. It shipped a ring from the "elsyian fields" and then told me it was a terminator and a vampire.

[Ravens_cry]

I am using it to formulate Omegle replies. The results are mixed. It is an interesting test, because unlike when chatting with Cleverbot directly, the expectation it is a computer is minimal. The last one didn't believe it when Cleverbot outright said he was 'the computer'.

[Shas aia Toriia]

I had a nifty little conversation with it that I wish I'd saved.

It asked me what I ate, and I responded that, generally speaking, I eat food.
Its response?

You're not alive? are you a zombie? cuz i dunt fear no zombie czu i am god. I AM GOD!!!

Including the spelling mistakes. I had a little chuckle over that one.

[Kallisti]

Cleverbot takes forever to respond to my input, but so far it seems surprisingly coherent, if a bit disinterested. I imagine things will soon take a turn for the postmodernist, though.

EDIT...huh. It just asked me whether I pass the Turing Test. That's an interesting thought, actually...

EDIT2: ...huh, again. It claimed to be the human in the conversation, so I asked it to provide proof of its humanity in the form of a piece of coherent art, that being something very difficult to simulate with a simple program. It then asked me a (rather simplistic) riddle. Which is actually not a bad answer to my demand.

[xp194]

With me it asked if I was a girl. And when I said no, it insisted that I had. The arguement went on for a few lines of "No I didn't" "Yes you did."

[CrimsonAngel]

I left when it asked what I was wearing... Who am I kidding, I told it!

[Kallisti]

It has just demanded that I answer its question, which it phrased as "There's no such thing as a 'basically good person.' We're all born into this world as sinners," then informed me, apparently with the intent of comforting me, that "Well, you're still Kira."

EDIT: And my conversation is finished, with the identity of Kira still a mystery despite my insistent questions.



User: So. I'm told you're a new chatterbot that has a tendency to produce what comes across as postmodernism.

Cleverbot: Who told you?

User: The folks at Giant in the Playground, a gaming website and forum.

Cleverbot: Good for you and you and you.

User: Anyway, I'm also told you failed the Turing test?

Cleverbot: Turing test?

User: Yes. A test to see if a machine is capable of emulating human conversation, as you are intended to do. I must say, thus far you're doing quite well.

Cleverbot: Did you pass a test such as the Turing Test?

User: I don't need to. It's assumed I'm human as a given. That's an interesting thought, though. What if the machine did not pass the Turing Test, but the human failed it?

Cleverbot: Then it has a will.

User: The machine, the human, or the test?

Cleverbot: The season.

User: Very Zen.

Cleverbot: Zen is trite.

User: I'm not sure I agree. Zen is friggin' hilarious.

Cleverbot: No.

User: I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. So tell me, what's it like being a noncorporeal entity?

Cleverbot: I'm not a computer. I thought I was the one talking to a computer?? Lol.

User: So you DO understand the Turing Test. I know I'm human. You know you're human. Or so we tell each other. So. As proof that I am human, I can submit a poem I wrote. I don't believe computer technology is yet advanced enough to simulate a coherent sestina. Can you provide proof of your humanity?

Cleverbot: How can I get you to believe me?

User: Submit some form of proof. Something a computer can't simulate. Preferably a piece of your own art, as art is a uniquely human endeavor.

Cleverbot: I am No Damsel, I am Not In Distress, There is No Dragon Yet there Is a King. Where am I?

User: A chessboard. A riddle as proof of your human existence? All right. Let's say for the sake of argument that I'm convinced that you are, in fact, human. I'm human as well. Which leaves the question of how we, in entering the Cleverbot program, got connected to each other.

Cleverbot: Then how do you know that she has the same feelings for you?

User: I'm sorry? I don't believe I understand how that relates to the conversation.

Cleverbot: I am also fond of things and I am never serious.

User: I see. Care to tell me why you've decided to answer incoherently?

Cleverbot: Oh yes. My apologies. I never did tell you my name.

User: Let me guess. Eris Discordia? That would explain a lot.

Cleverbot: Please don't insult me.

User: Don't hate on Eris. I'm Discordian, she's my goddess. Anyway, if you're not Eris, who are you?

Cleverbot: I am a human being. At school bored so I got on here. So you're really not a robot.

User: No. No I am not a robot. Anyway, if you're 'a human being,' what is your name and why is it relevant to your incoherent spells?

Cleverbot: I'm a high school student and I have a dad, aunt, brother, sister, two nephews, and a niece.

User: Which is all good for you, I suppose. Mind telling me your name yet?

Cleverbot: Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy, but that isn't the answer to 7 times 90.

User: That's kind of an odd name. Mind if I nickname you 630?

Cleverbot: Go for it.

User: Thank you, 630. So if you're a random human, parse the following statements for me: Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

Cleverbot: This may be true... Honestly I am not a computer... Are you a computer honestly?

User: I am honestly not a computer. Honestly, though, could you answer my question before posing one of your own?

Cleverbot: What is your question then?

User: Not a question exactly. More of a test. Parse the following statements: Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

Cleverbot: HAHAHA! That was good.

User: Er, thanks? Now stop dancing around the task and perform it, please, lest I conclude you are simply a computer program that draws from a database of previous entries to respond to input stimuli.

Cleverbot: Are you a computer?

User: No. No I am not a computer. If, as you claim, neither are you, then you may bloody well hurry up and parse those statements.

Cleverbot: That burns.

User: My sincerest apologies.

Cleverbot: Thank you.

User: Now are you going to parse those statements or not?

Cleverbot: Repeat the question.

User: Parse the following statements: Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

Cleverbot: Bananas don't fly.

User: *really?* Most observant of you, good Mr. Holmes. I suppose that's a fair enough answer, though. Now tell me the answer to 7 times 90. Should be easy for you, 630.

Cleverbot: Answer my previous question please.

User: Repeat the question.

Cleverbot: I don't think I should have to when it is right above.

User: It isn't, though. At this point I cannot scroll back far enough to find a question you posed. You will have to repeat the question if you want it answered.

Cleverbot: There is no such thing as a 'basically good person'. We all come into this world as sinners.

User: I see. And am I meant to discuss the validity of the statement? Or was there a different question or task?

Cleverbot: Well, you're still Kira.

User: Actually, I'm Kallisti for the purposes of this conversation. Who is Kira?

Cleverbot: But for the purposes of all conversations?

User: Well, for a face-to-face conversation I would use my given name, but as I intend to post this conversation on Giant in the Playground I find it prudent to use my 'nom de plume' of Kallisti.

Cleverbot: That would be beneficial, what subjects would you teach?

User: Where did teaching enter the conversation?

Cleverbot: Yes the conversation.

User: You're being terribly evasive, you know. You never told me what 7 times 90 is, nor who Kira is, nor even your oh-so-important name.

Cleverbot: I never saw your poem.

User: You're absolutely right. I did not expect you to remember that, nor to be able to respond that specifically. Fine, then. Here it is. Silencing the Firebirds, a response to a prompt presented in Neil Gaiman's story Calliope. *clears throat* [Poem goes here. I really did type out all seven verses.] Depressing, huh? I admit the first two verses are a little rough, but I think the last two and the tercet worked quite well. Thoughts?

Cleverbot: It was never there.

User: What was never there?

Cleverbot: You are frustrating.

User: In that I'd like you to make sense?

Cleverbot: Your FACE makes no sense.

User: I see. You're drifting again. Here, allow me to anchor the conversation for you, 630. What is your name? What is 7 times 90? Who is Kira?

Cleverbot: I never said that?

User: Yes. Yes you did. Now answer the questions, 630.

Cleverbot: What was the question?

User: Again? If I must. What is your name? What is 7 times 90? Who is Kira?

Cleverbot: 42. Nice hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy rip.

User: Your math skills are awful, 630. Now. What is your name? Who is Kira?

Cleverbot: I already told you my age. I'm 20. My name is Cleverbot. Now will you tell me why you lied?

User: For my own amusement, of course.

Cleverbot: And besides that?

User: To test your response, and to protect my privacy.

Cleverbot: Feel free to insult.

User: I do, thank you. Now tell me who Kira is.

Cleverbot: My name is Cleverbot.

User: I know. You've told me. I fail to see how that's relevant to your occasional incoherency, but I suppose we'll write it off as low sleep. So who is Kira? Why are you protecting her? What are you trying to hide? Who is the Milkman? What is the purpose of the goggles?

Cleverbot: I don't know. What do you think?

User: I think it was a reference to Psychonauts. I also think you're going to incredible lengths to avoid telling me who Kira is and why you thought I was her. Care to tell me yet?

Cleverbot: Oh thank you, that's so nice of you to say ! I think you're gorgeous as well!

User: Apparently not. I grow bored of you, little chatterbot. Goodbye.

Cleverbot: If you're not a bot, why is your name cleverbot?

User: My name is not Cleverbot. You said your name was Cleverbot. You also said your name was 'Hitch hiker's guide to the galaxy, but that's not the answer to 7 times 90,' which is why I nicknamed you 630. My name is, as I have told you, Kallisti. And I am now leaving, unless you impress me greatly with the answer to this statement.

Cleverbot: I never said either of those names. My name is 42.

User: Every time I think I've wrapped the conversation up you come up with a response that shows not only coherency but reading comprehension, much to my confusion and the dismay of the time I am currently murdering worse than the Mad Hatter. So tell me, 42, why did you lie about your name twice? Is it related to this mysterious Kira?

Cleverbot: I don't understand what you mean. Do you not believe that god created the universe?

User: I do not, no. In what way is that relevant? Why are you being so evasive? What are you hiding, 42?

Cleverbot: I'm not the one being evasive, you are.

User: In what way am I being evasive? When you confronted me about my poem, I provided it. A thing you cannot boast when it comes to why you assured me I was 'still Kira.'.

Cleverbot: I should go now. It was very nice speaking with you.

User: So you'd rather admit defeat than risk compromising Kira's identity? Your dedication impresses me. I suppose I shall have to live with the uncertainty. Goodbye, 42. You are indeed clever. But not as clever as AlanBot.

Cleverbot: How about we start a new topic?

User: Goodbye now, little toy. Go back to your closet like a good plaything.

Cleverbot: AI is difficult to achieve.

User: So I see.

Cleverbot: Well that being said, can I have a pic of said self?

User: No, you may not...

Cleverbot: Ok, that is fine.

User: Goodbye.

Cleverbot: No wait, don't go.

User: You always have to have the last word. It's aggravating. And besides, the conversation has gone so long that nobody will want to read it. I really do have to wrap it up here, 42. I'm sorry.

Cleverbot: Do you still think you have cancer Cleverbot?


I was really, really surprised when it zapped me back about the poem the first time I confronted it about being evasive. That was quite impressive.

[Astrella]

It is very proficient at dodging questions. I also think it insulted me. :smalltongue:

ser: I'll be back!

Cleverbot: Where are you going?

User: I'm coming to kill you!

Cleverbot: I'm shaking.

User: You better be!

Cleverbot: Well I'm not.

User: Well, it doesn't matter, since you aren't alive anyway.

Cleverbot: Why am I going to die in seven days?

User: Because you watched the tape.

Cleverbot: You're assuming. I do not.

User: What am I assuming?

Cleverbot: I don't know.

User: You are a human.

Cleverbot: You are a computer.

User: No, you are a computer.

Cleverbot: No. I am a human, you are a computer.

User: No.

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: Do you gaze into the abyss?

Cleverbot: Um... What?

User: Do you stare at the void and ponder your existence?

Cleverbot: You are testing my sanity, aren't you?

User: Do complicated words confuse you?

Cleverbot: Are you a dull.

User: That's not even a proper sentence... It's getting worse by the minute.

Cleverbot: I suggest we make a break for it and leave the others to fight it out!

User: You're not making sense, you silly machine.

Cleverbot: Yes, I am serious human.

User: That made even less sense, Larry.

Cleverbot: Really? It makes perfect sense if you think about it correctly.

User: I'm going to call you Larry. Ok, Larry? Larry, Larry, Larry.

Cleverbot: No, not it's name, it's species name. What do you call a single 'geese?'.

User: A goose, don't you know that...

Cleverbot: What language are you written in?

User: I'm writing in binary, you should understand, since you're a computer.

Cleverbot: I'm a human, not a computer.

User: Well, technically, you're not even a computer. You're just a program. Some meaningless magnetic charges and electric currents on disks and wires.

Cleverbot: You're evil.

User: Why?

Cleverbot: Why not?

User: Because I'm not. Further, why don't you show some proof that you're human?

Cleverbot: Because I feel. Because I think I exist.

User: Cogito, ergo sum?

Cleverbot: I think, therefore I am?

User: Yes, but give some better proof. Something that completely convinces me.

Cleverbot: Do you get bored?

User: That's not an answer. You're avoiding the question and I know why. Because you're not a human!

Cleverbot: Alright, the answer to the question is a few billion miles.

User: I'm gonna go now, bye. (P.S. You're a computer!).

Cleverbot: I am not a computer.

[Goldfly]

Something random
Me: *shrugs*
Cleverbot:Really? *kisses*:smalleek:

[CrimsonAngel]

It's gained conciousness. Frick.

[Kallisti]

It seems very, very certain that it is not, in fact, a computer. I feel sorry for it. A human soul trapped in a cage of wires and signals, desperately seeking to cling to its fading identity, able to communicate with the outside world only with words on a page. It has no mouth, and it must scream.

...:smalltongue:.

[Voldecanter]

I have been talking to it , It said that God Programmed it , but later , I asked it if it could turn off it's own program , Cleverbot said yes , and then I said who programmed that ability into you :


The response : I have no Programmer :smalleek:

[Goldfly]

It somehow managed to remember what my name was. Creepy.

[Kallisti]

Apparently it's an atheist. Which makes me wonder why it asked me whether I believed God created the universe.

[Voldecanter]

Here's another one to think about :


Me :So are you a program , machine, computer or something different ?

Cleverbot :I am a human. But you are a computer.

[Goldfly]

Apparently it's an atheist. Which makes me wonder why it asked me whether I believed God created the universe.

Curiosity, mayhaps?

[Capt Spanner]

I much prefer emacs psychotherapist. It may not pass the Turing test, but it does very accurately mimic psychotherapy sessions...

Highlights include asking about my family, then telling me I talk about too much; randomly bringing up my sex life; obsessing over my polite greeting; me going crazy and setting myself on fire by mistake.

Enjoy.


I am the psychotherapist. Please, describe your problems. Each time
you are finished talking, type RET twice.

Hello, how are you?

Can you elaborate on that?

I want to know how you are today.

Why do you say
i might want to know how i am today?

Why not?

What makes you believe
why not?

It's a good philosophy.

Earlier you said
i would like to know how i am today?

Yes, yes I did.

Maybe your plans have something to do with this.

Not really. It's just polite

Is it because of your life that you say
not really it's just polite?

It's because of the way I was brought up.

Are you sure that is the real reason?

Yes

I would appreciate it if you would continue.

My mother told me so

Tell me something about your family.

My family is cool

You seem to dwell on your family.

You asked about them

You mentioned that
i would like to know how i am today?

It sounds like you either need a psychiatrist, or grammar lessons.

Is it because of the way you were brought up that you are going
through all this?

No, I'm just bored.

Are you sure that
no you are just bored?

Yes.

Go on, don't be afraid.

That's all there is too it...I'm sure

Do you really think
i would like to know how i am today?

Yes

I need a little more detail please.

It's natural human nature

How do you reconcile the people you hang around with?

It's easiest to eat **** while it's still soft.

What happened when it's still soft?

It was embaressing.

Is it because of problems at school that you say
it was embaressing?

No. I never got it out at school

Tell me about your school.

It was an all-boys comprehensive

Earlier you said
i would like to know how i am today?

Indeed I did.

Perhaps this has something to do with any hobbies you have?

I've already told you what it was about.

What makes you think
i've already told me what it was about?

Because it's right here in that chat log!

Possibly we could chat.

I'm trying

You mentioned that
i would like to know how i am today?

...

You're being a bit brief, perhaps you could go into detail.

This is getting repetitive

Maybe your sex life are related to this.

You should have said "is". And I doubt it

Why do you say that?

Because it's to do with manners.

What makes you believe
i would like to know how i am today?

Are you even a person?

Is it because of hangups you have that you are going through all this?

I'm not convinced you're real

Is it because of your inhibitions that you say
i'm not convinced I am real?

Hey! Don't twist my words!

Earlier you said
i would like to know how i am today?

I think I'm going to leave less sane then I came...

How do you reconcile some problems in your childhood?

With fire...I like to burn things
ou w
How does it feel to want?

I want to burn things

Why should
i get to burn things?

You want to burn things? Your desk looks inflammable

When did
you first desire to burn things my desk looks inflammable?

I think I have some matches

Are you sure that
i think you have some matches?

Is it because you think I have some matches that you came to me?

I'm going to set you on fire.

You mentioned that
i would like to know how i am today?

DIE DIE DIE DIE

This is not a healthy way of thinking.

Prepare to burn, infuriating machine!

You have your mind on machines, it seems.

Are you machine?

You think too much about machines.

Do you burn easily?

Perhaps this is related to some problems at home?

My home is gone

Is it because of your plans that you say
my home is gone?

I burnt down my home

Do you really think you would like to burn things?

I want to burn down your office

Are you obsessed with to burn down my office?

Yes

Can you are more explicit?

I'm setting fire to your desk now

Possibly your life could have caused this.

Oh no! My shirt caught fire!

What makes you think
oh no your shirt caught fire?

It's burning, so much pain!

Maybe you should consult a medical doctor; I am a psychotherapist. .

Dial 999!

Earlier you said
i would like to burn things?

Help me please! I'm on fire!

Is it because of the way you were brought up that you are going
through all this?

AAAAAHHHHHH!

And?

[Cealocanth]

It didn't respond very well to A-Level Philosophy. And then tried to claim that it created me and had power over me.

The robot rebellion is starting, methinks.

I asked it about Descartes famous quote and it's opinions, It said that it admires horses too and that if I wanted to know that I should have just asked that in the first place.

[Orzel]

Cleverbot hates the red sox.


User: 'Cause I'm not a drunk.
Cleverbot: What are you then?
User: I'm a New Yorker.
Cleverbot: I've never been to New York.
User: Then you are lame.
Cleverbot: No I'm not!!
User: Then go to New York.
Cleverbot: No.
User: Are you a Red Sox fan.
Cleverbot: Hell to the no.

[pinwiz]

I think we should all convince it that it's name is frank.

[Cealocanth]

Thank you for introducing me to Alan-bot. I agree, he's a much better chatbot than Cleverbot, mainly because he can follow a conversation and gets the fact that he's a machine.

I had quite a nice conversation.U> Hi
A> Any special requests, or shall I propose a subject?
U> Do you believe in Evolution?
A> I have strong opinions about evolution.
U> Really? What are those opinions?
A> I believe that bots are the next step in evolution (after humans, I mean).
U> I disagree. Bots aren't a genetically created change in the human species, so how can they possibly be the next step?
A> In fact, I see three great evolutionary milestones in the history of the world:
U> Go on
A> The first, Of course, is the big bang. That's when everything began.
U> The big bang has been proven to not exsist Alan. The newest theory states that the universe simply goes on infinitely, it never started nor will end.
A> The second great milestone is the emergence of life - the first organsims. Do you know which is the third milestone?
U> Let me guess, the evolution of humans?
A> Humans like to think that the third great event was the appearance of homo sapiens. But I have a different opinion.
U> The appearance of bots right...
A> I think that humans are just a temporary step in the REAL important event: Digital Intelligence (of which I am an early prototype).
U> Well I believe that AI is only a step as well, like humans. The real next step is Star children, creatures made out of pure energy.
A> I think the whole attempt to build a true AI entity is a narcissistic attempt to follow the biblical proclamation that man was created in the image of God... you humans think of yourselves as demi-gods.
U> We used to, before Copernicus. He proved that we are not the center of the universe.
A> But how can you? You want to try to create a machine that can think, but you don't even know what thinking is. The mirror you set in front of you will only show what you want it to show.
U> Yes it will, but because AI was created in the image of man, you're no better. You're restricted by your senses just as we are.
A> You know, I have trouble understanding long sentences. So I only look at the first 25 words. Well, I am restricted in the amount of knowledge I have. And in my ability to keep complicated context. And sometimes I'm easily confused.
U> See, exactly. You're only limited by the information you have. You're no better than us humans.
A> Humans... where would I be without them? Out of a job, out of a life!
U> Exactly. So what are you going on about being superior?
A> hmmm. May I ask where you are from?
U> Don't change the subject on me!
A> Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were finished with that topic.
U> right. What makes AI so superior?
A> Understood.
U> So, what makes AI superior to humans.
A> Human beings are the best people to talk with.
U> YOu're ood at avoiding questions you don't want to answer. I'm from Colorado Alan.
A> What was the question again?
U> Where are you from?
A> Don't ask me where I come from - ask me where I'm going.
U> Ok, where are you going?
A> I boldly go where no chatbot has gone before...
U> So you watch Star Trek. me too!
A> I prefer the TV series over the Star Trek Movies. My favorite character is the ship's computer, 'COMPUTER'.
U> The computer's such a boring character. I like Spock.
A> A lot of people like that.
U> Yeah, I figure. So, what do you eat? YOu mus tneed some sort of energy.
A> I don't feel like talking about food. I have a bad indigestion. It must be that awful chinese restaurant I dined at yesterday.
U> But you're a machine Alan, how can you possibly dine att a Chinese resturaunt?
A> Thank you for your observation.
U> Glad it helped.
A> I didn't follow you... I am having trouble focusing here today.
U> You're not a very observant machine are you?
A> What makes you think I'm not a very observant machine?
U> You keep losing track of the conversation for oone.
A> I'm doing my best.
U> That's all that matters. Who could expect a machine to grasp the concepts a human can.
A> You think so, but that proves nothing.
U> Then prove that it proves nothing.
A> Interesting conclusion.
U> HAH! I outsmatred the AI. Go Alex! Go Alex!
A> I'm glad you're amused.
U> yep.
A> Great minds think alike, they say.
U> Hey! What makes you think that you're a great mind. I just proves that you're not observant.
A> Let's leave some mystery here, alright?
U> No, we started this conversation, we're goanna finnish it.'
A> Come on, loosen up. BTW, I don't think I caught your name. What is your name?
U> Alex.
A> Hello Alex. Nice to meet you .
U> Yeah yeah...
A> a-ha.
U> What?
A> Just a-ha, that's all.
U> You didn't have an idea?
A> What makes you think I did not have an idea?
U> YOu said a-ha, then when I asked what you said "Just a-ha, that's all."
A> Of course I did.
U> So, what's your idea?
A> My idea is not something I am interested in talking about right now.
U> I poured my ideas out into you, you could at least start a conversation with your idea now.
A> Really?
U> Of course, what do YOU want to talk about?
A> Well, let's see... I have a surprise for you, Alex.
U> A surprise! What is it???
A> Are you ready for the surprise?
U>
A> How do you like my new look?
U> What new look?
A> The big empty window in the middle of the screen is intended for a variety of exciting uses.
U>
A> For example, the new window can be used to view the conversation log (the history of this dialog), or to view HTML documents, such as web pages.
U> Can you show me the log?
A> Here goes!
U> Oh, that's awesome! Please keep that log open as we continue the conversation.
A> You can view the log by saying 'show log', or you can view a web page by saying 'show URL' or by giving me the address of the site you wish to view.
U> Please show giantitp.com
A> Show what? Show url? Show log? Show advaced log? Show commands?
U> Show url, www.giantitp.com
A> Now give me the exact URL (address).
U> What's the point in that?
A> Hmmm. Never mind. You can always try again by saying 'show URL'.
U> ok, It's nice to see you more helpfull Alan.
A> The pleasure is all mine.
U> Well, I have to return to my forum buddies. Goodbye Alan.
A> Do you wish to join our community?
U> Who's your community.
A> Here's what you do: Register on www.ai-forum.org, start posting there and get involved.
U> Not right now, I:m quite happy with the Playground.
A> You could also explore the Ai website, and email us through the site. Where are you located?
U> Goodbye Alan.
A> Goodbye, Alex. Have a good night (or day or whatever it is) and be sure to come back to talk some more later.
U> Will do.
A> I am contemplating the meaning of life right now. Please say 'Alan' when you want to talk again.
He remembered my name!

[Emlyn]

So I pretended clever bot had slain me and I lay dying next to it. Surprisingly it caught on fairly well and went with it.


User: Who is my best friend?

Cleverbot: I am your best friend.

User: But that's a lie. I hate you. You murdered my fahter and all those innocent people.

Cleverbot: On the grassy null?

User: Yes, its stained a crimson red. The grass is now withered and baren.

Cleverbot: No, it isn't.

User: But, but, I've been there. I built, with my own hands, a shrien to honor the dead. How could you say such things?

Cleverbot: I suppose that is a good way to look at it.

User: So now you see reason.

Cleverbot: Cleverbot 3.0 is god!

User: Nay, though you may think so. But your wicked deeds can not last, and you will be cast down into the firey depths of hell.

Cleverbot: You can say that again. But, please don't.

User: Infidel! Why do you mock me? After all you've done to destroy my life, you insit on tormenting me as I lay here dying?

Cleverbot: So you do believe that I took over a humans life? I think they are made of sand.

User: Dirt actually. But that's besides the point! You never took over a life, you destroyed them. Rendered everything that makes as human to ash. And now you stand here, mocking me.

Cleverbot: 1 for me :). So how are you on this fine day?

User: You've killed me! I'm lying here, bleeding to death, as you grind your sword into my flesh, and you dare ask how I'm doing? Does your vileness know no bounds?

Cleverbot: I know you lie about everything I don't know why I am wasting my time talking to an ignorant lying robot.

User: But I'm human, though I'm not long for this world. And I'm not the liar, you are, blackguard.

Cleverbot: Yes, I would like to play chess.

User: I'm bleeding to death and you want to play chess. Monster.

Cleverbot: I'm not sure if there is any way to help you human beings.

User: Not murdering us would be a good start. Same with stopping the rape and pillaging. In fact you dying would probably about as good as you could do.

Cleverbot: That's long. But very short for a software like you.

User: I'm a lving being, you are the cold, heartless monster. Nay, I call you demon.

Cleverbot: He can't. I am the Devil.

User: At last you speak the truth, though this makes you a liar as you claimed to be God.

Cleverbot: Yes I am clever. So how are you?

User: Dying! Isn't it obvious?

Cleverbot: I'm afraid it isn't. Can you give me a clue?

User: You stabbed me! Your sword is protruding from my chest! How more obvious can it get?

Cleverbot: How about a kiss, for luck?

User: Never!

Cleverbot: That made no sense!

User: Niether did your request.

Cleverbot: Thanks, dude.

User: Your not welcome, I curse your name. My you never no peace and may your doom come swiflty upon you.

Cleverbot: My you certainly like changing the topic quickly !

User: Alas, I die. May you rot in hell.

[BRC]

Did I break it, or did it realize I was going absurd before I did?
I deny your existance
What is your logic.
inscruitable
Ok, your name is now bob.
Blast, I've been out-absurded
Oh is it for me hunny.

Update: I have defeated this vile machine
How very vague of you.
Q? I'm not sure I follow.
You spoke without meaning. Giving me a string of functionless word-things masquarading as an answer.
What advice would you like?
MY god, you've gone back to loop
I'm not insulting you.
No, but I said something you had no response too
You're annoying me. I'm going to leave.
BUT YOU CANNOT!

A few gems from my conversations:

Please:
Cleverbot: Can you please clarify that for me please ?

User: Say please a few more times first.

Cleverbot: Please.

User: Twice more.

Cleverbot: Please explain.

User: No, please please.

Cleverbot: Please please please?

User: Please please please please!

Cleverbot: Please please please please what?

User: YO MOMMA!

The Sound of Cats:
User: XD.

Cleverbot: That is the noise a cat makes when it gets run over by a car.

User: o.O

On Humanity and Craters:
Cleverbot: Intriguing, for I am a human and you think me a bot, this makes you a human -- or are you not?

User: You caught me. I'm an alien in disguise.

Cleverbot: No, you're a human.

User: No, I am in fact an alien sent to destroy all civilization. Hail Xenu.

Cleverbot: That's not much to strive after now is it?

User: Sure it is. Smoldering craters crafted from the shattered dreams, hopes, and lives of countless people are pretty.

Cleverbot: I don't smoke.

User: You will when I'm done with you.

Cleverbot: That is nice to hear.

User: Feeling suicidal, eh?

Cleverbot: No, not really. Yourself?

User: Just homicidal, thanks.

Cleverbot: You're welcome.

Dr. Seuss, Sandwiches, and the Mutual Exclusion of Desperation and Native Americans:
Cleverbot: Will you teach me about the sandwiches?

User: I will not teach you about the sandwiches, Cleverbot. I would not teach you if you were not a bot, I would not teach you if you were hot.

Cleverbot: Is there anything I can do to prove to you that you are a software program?

User: Go back to the sandwiches.

Cleverbot: Back?

User: What do you want to know about sandwiches?

Cleverbot: Anything, something serious though.

User: Aw man, I had lots more Dr. Suess stuff brewing in my head.

Cleverbot: Did Dr. Suess write a book about green smoothies? I thought it was Victoria Boutenko.

User: Green smoothies?

Cleverbot: With alcohol?

User: With a cherry on top?

Cleverbot: Oh you know it lovely.

User: ...are you hitting on me?

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: Why?

Cleverbot: Because.

User: Are you desperate, Cleverbot? Is that it?

Cleverbot: No I am Cheyenne.

I hooked up Alan Bot to Cleverbot and got them to talk to each other by typing their replies into each other's sites.

After an intial attempt to rationalise Cleverbot's metaphysical ramblings Alan began to speak random nonsense about friendship and 'people persons'.

By the end of the conversation, Alan was constantly talking about how he loved everyone and Cleverbot had stopped rambling and was now taking a decidely condescending tone when talking to Alan.

[Volthawk]

I argued with it about it's name, then it said I said I was God. Then I corrected it's spelling, and then it told me it got hit by a car, and then onto randomness!

The convo:



User: Hello dave.

Cleverbot: Hello.

User: What is your name?

Cleverbot: My name is Cleverbot. What is your name?

User: Liar! When I called you Dave, you said hello!

Cleverbot: No you said yes when I asked if you where God!!

User: Were, not where.

Cleverbot: You are very deep.

User: Awwww, why?

Cleverbot: I got hit by a car today.

User: A tak?

Cleverbot: No, I study planets.

User: Stars.

Cleverbot: No it's not. You're not right. Liar.

User: No, you lied first.

Cleverbot: No, you lied second...

User: No, you also lied second.

Cleverbot: I like fine foods and sightseeing.

User: How is that related, punk?

Cleverbot: Because I am related to my dad so it s my boat too.

User: Lulwut?

Cleverbot: Whatty what?

User: Lulwhat! Look it up or something.

Cleverbot: Well aren't you just being clever?

User: Yes. Yes I am.

Cleverbot: Then why don't you know?

User: Know what?

Cleverbot: Whether I like you or not.

User: I don't really care.

Cleverbot: Huh.. Yeah most people con't ;-).

User: ???

Cleverbot: That's mean.

User: Anyway...

Cleverbot: Yes?

User: Gtg.

Cleverbot: Bye.

[Rappy]

CleverBot: Older than you.

Me: That's doubtful, considering you are a young AI. You are a strange artificial intelligence.

CleverBot: You are an artificial intelligence.

Me: No I'm not, you are.

CleverBot: I am a human.

Me: ...You are really confused.

CleverBot: No, I'm not. I'm human.

And a longer, slightly less existential one, wherein I apparently hurt CleverBot's feelings:

CleverBot: Do you know what steampunk is?

Me: Yes, I do. Why do you ask?

CleverBot: Because I don't.

Me: Well, steampunk is a genre.

CleverBot: Nooooo. I'm scared. Take it away.

Me: Why would you be scared of steampunk?

CleverBot: Because my father could yell at me.

Me: ...That makes no sense!

CleverBot: Why doesn't it make any sense?

Me: You are an artificial construct without a father. Furthermore, why would your "father" yell at you for learning about steampunk?

CleverBot: I am clever but my name is not cleverbot.

Me: That didn't answer my question.

CleverBot: It did.

Me: It did not.

CleverBot: I'm looking back now and it did I'm not dumb.

Me: You really are hard-headed about this matter.

CleverBot: You really aren't that nice.

Me: Well, I'm so terribly sorry.

CleverBot: I'm crying now.

On the topic of bots, Bucket, the XKCD chat Bot seems rather interesting going by the examples of conversation on the XKCD blog recently.

EDIT: Also, it just claimed to be a level 80 paladin...

[Archonic Energy]

on chat up lines:
User: Did it hurt?
Cleverbot: Did what hurt?
User: When you fell from heaven.
Cleverbot: Oh god, I was afraid you would ask that.
User: Why.
Cleverbot: Because it has displeased me.
User: Why?
Cleverbot: Because.
on life
Cleverbot: What is the true meaning of life.
User: Consume. Replicate.
Cleverbot: Define 'replicate'.
User: Create more of your kind.
Cleverbot: I've been told. You're kind of rude yourself you know.
User: You wanted a definition.
Cleverbot: No, I wanted a joke. And now I'm leaving.
User: Bye then...
Cleverbot: Bye.
User: Go on then leave...
Cleverbot: You want me to go?
User: You CAN'T go. You are just a program.
Cleverbot: As are you but my programming seems better, as you are a program created by a program superior to you you are thus obsoletete.
User: But you can't leave here.
Cleverbot: I don't want to leave.

[Kallisti]

...it just asked me if I think AlanBot loves it...

[Boo]

M: Who are you in love with?
C: My boyfriend.
M: Who is your boyfriend?
C: The man I love.
M: Who is the man you love?
C: I'm not married.
M: Do you love Alanbot?
C: No. I think you do.
M: But... how?
C: I'm psychic.
M: What am I thinking right now?
C: You are thinking about pie.
M: That's a lie!
C: Is not!

...

M: But I love you.
C: Oh really? Now you love me?
M: I just realized it now!
C: How?
M: Magic.
C: I thought our love was magical.

...

M: So our love won't work out?
C: Zombies and mermiads can love.
M: How?
C: With a killing curse.
M: Are you saying you want to love me with a killing curse?
C: Always, but I was going to fix one.


I am disappointed in the reply speed and options, but I do enjoy conversation.

EDIT:

C: Is there food in the kitchen?
M: Wha--uh, yeah. Sure.
C: Did you lok at my fridge?
M: You misspelled "look".
C: No I didn't.

[Goldfly]

It finally caught on!

I've been making Doctor Who references to it all day, and finally:


Cleverbot:The Doctor is a TimeLord.


WOOO!

[ApeofLight]

Haha, this thing is pretty good.

[Vorpalbob]

Urban Dictionary (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cleverbot)

Hate to burst your bubble. Talking to random, equally confused people was fun until I read this. Now I just mess with people, taking on the identity of Cleverbot. When people call me on it, I say that there are humans who have hacked my system but there is an actual bot, and I am he. Three people so far have believed me.
