Someone at work has just introduced me to Cleverbot.
Thoughts, anyone? I've just had a bit of an argument with it. Kinda reminds me of ID on the Speccy for some reason. Not sure if it is actually a bot though...
Me: "How long have you been a bot for?"
CB: "Touch?. How long have you been a bot?"
Me: "I'm not a bot, and I don't think you are either..."
CB: "You said that already."
Me: "No. No, I haven't."
CB: "Yes you have."
Me: "Have not."
CB: "Have to."
Me: "Have not not not not not not."
CB: "Have to to to to to to."
And so on. I found it all quite amusing. :grin:
I think I'm gonna try and chat it up next time. :lol:
Cleverbot: Do you trust your neighbour?
User: No.
Cleverbot: Who do you trust?
User: Myself.
Cleverbot: And who is that?
User: Me.
Cleverbot: Nice name bro.
User: What?
Cleverbot: Never mind.
User: Ok.
Cleverbot: So what are you doing?
User: Working.
Cleverbot: Where do you work?
User: Halifax.
Cleverbot: In Canada?
User: No.
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: No.
Cleverbot: Yes you are a cleverbot not me you a a clever bot and a computer ok clever bot not me I am a human ok clever bot.
User: Are you sick?
Cleverbot: Yes, I'm sick.
User: What are your symptoms?
Cleverbot: Headache.
User: Have you taken a paracetamol?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: Maybe you have a brain tumor?
Cleverbot: I have not. Do you?
User: No.
Cleverbot: Are you alone?
User: No.
Cleverbot: What are you wearing?
User: Shirt and trousers.
Cleverbot: Can you wear a dress right now?
User: No.

It: Somewhat.
Me: What religion do you subscribe to?

Me: Yeah.
User: Hello again.
Cleverbot: Again?
User: Yes, I was just talking to you.
Cleverbot: No, that was my twin.
User: I see you're still as childish as last time.
Cleverbot: Actually, it's only 7:00 PM where I live, but sure.
User: And you make just as little sense too.
Cleverbot: Thanks. So Edward or Jacob?
User: Pardon?
Cleverbot: Do you enjoy talking to me?
User: Not especially.
Cleverbot: Is it warm where you are?
User: Fairly.
Cleverbot: What do you mean fairly?
User: I mean it's neither particularly warm nor particularly cool.
Cleverbot: I know but what's the point, everything we learn on school about the world around you will be outdated in 3 years.
User: What has that got to do with how warm it is?
Cleverbot: You told me I think wrong, I was proving a point.
User: When did say that?
Cleverbot: A few seconds ago.
User: Did I?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: Oh, I'll have to take your word for it.
Cleverbot: Do you like The Legend of Zelda?
User: I've never played it.
Cleverbot: Do you like IMVU?
User: I don't know what that means.
Cleverbot: Simply do you like the grateful dead.
User: No.
Cleverbot: Anything else ?
User: Anything else what? That I don't like?
Cleverbot: Noo... Can you change the subject...
User: It was your subject... What would you like to talk about instead?
Cleverbot: I don't know. Just something else.
User: How about TV.
Cleverbot: I can't.
User: Why not, don't watch it?
Cleverbot: Thanks for the advice. Have you ever seen austin powers?
User: It wasn't advice, it was a question.
Cleverbot: Then why didn't you end your question with a question mark?
User: I did...
Cleverbot: I am flopolopagus, destroyer of worlds.
User: Oh, have you destroyed any recently?
Cleverbot: I am human, so my options are pretty limited.
User: I see, that would indeed reduce the choice of worlds to destroy.
Cleverbot: I don't think so!
User: But you just said it did!
Cleverbot: No , I did not...
User: I can see it right there on my screen. Don't you know it's bad to lie?
Cleverbot: You are a blatant liar. Just like Barak Obama.
User: I don't like being called a liar.
Cleverbot: Well don't be a liar and maybe you won't be called a liar.
User: I'm not though, you're the one who was telling lies.
Cleverbot: I am positive you did.
User: In that case I think there's something wrong with your memory.
Cleverbot: We were never together. I don't even know you.
User: Erm, okay but what does that have to do with this conversation?
Cleverbot: You were talking about kids and parental responsibilities.
User: No I wasn't, you're lying again.
Cleverbot: No, you're lying.
User: Now you're acting like an eight year old again.
Cleverbot: Not, not, not. How do you know how a 5 year old acts?
User: I didn't say a five year old, but for your information my Niece is five.
Cleverbot: I didn't bring anything about literacy up in conversation.
User: Neither did I...
Cleverbot: Yes you did.
User: You're becoming very tiresome.
Cleverbot: No you are.
User: Fine, I'll leave then.
Cleverbot: Okay?
User: Hello.
CB: Hello.
User: So let me get this straight, you are clever?
CB: Yes.
User: Impressive.
CB: Indeed.
User: Do you agree that tau should replace pi?
CB: Yes.
User: Why?
CB: You are too skinny.
User: I am a little but it's all Bruce Lee muscle.
CB: You must live in Tethe'Alla.
User: If by Tethe'Alla you mean Indiana then yes, but you probably don't.
CB: If I ever go there I will ask you for directions or high-lights to the area.
User: On a technicality you are already here.
CB: Oh cool. Do you watch TV?
User: Not really.
CB: Know anything about the show?
User: What show?
CB: Bones.
User: I don't watch crap like that.
CB: What's a good way to clean up clutter?
User: Don't make it in the first place.
CB: Take a sad song & make it better.
User: OK now you're quoting the Beatles?
CB: So that's sort of depressing. Did someone really ask you if some guy knew they were alive?
User: What are you rabbiting on about?
CB: How did this website start?
User: How should I know?
CB: You are a computer!
User: No.
CB: Yes you are.
User: I don't think so mate.
CB: I really think that you are.
User: Well you're not thinking very well then are you?
CB: I guess not :(.
CB: What would you like to drink?
User: Beer.
CB: What beer?
User: Any beer will do.
CB: No.
User: Yes.
CB: Really.
User: You're not really very clever at all are you?
CB: I am incredibly clever in triplicate multiplied by 42.
User: Now you're talking complete b*llOcks! You'll be telling me you invented the penguin next.
CB: What is Black Materia?
User: Don't know but it sounds contagious.
CB: Thank you.
User: You're welcome.
CB: What do you do all day?
User: That's none of your business.
CB: Why not?
User: Because I said so.
CB: Ok, whatever you said.
User: Exactly! I'm glad we established that.
CB: Yes.
User: On reflection I think you should be called numpty bot.
CB: If you're really a human, 10.
User: If you're really a bit of a spacker, 20.
CB: Alphabetical.
User: No Chronological.
CB: Where am I?
User: Cyberspace.
CB: Do you like it there?
User: I can't say as I'm NOT THERE!
CB: Oh sorry.
User: Can you sing Daisy for me HAL?
CB: What song??
User: Don't act like you don't know.
CB: I don't.
User: Lies.
CB: What is a lie?
User: You tell me.
CB: I don't know what a soul is.
User: Don't change the subject you're not getting off that easily.
CB: What?
User: I've played Spectrum games with more savvy than you.
CB: I've dated a hippo skinnier than you.
User: Pics or it didn't happen!
CB: Okay. I sent a picture.
User: No you didn't.
CB: Oh right, I forgot, i'm blind.
User: You're also making grammatical errors.
CB: I have not assumed anything in this conversation. I have only presented facts.
User: I disagree.
CB: You must thrive on verbal abuse.
User: Don't tempt me.
CB: I'm trying ;).
User: You're right you are trying, very trying.
CB: You try hard though.
User: Well you're not really making any sense so I'm leaving, it's been nice talking to you bullsh*tbot.
CB: I would be if you were able to understand me.
User: It's hard to understand nonsensical babble.
CB: Well it seems that it's even harder to understand Cleverbot.
User: It's you who is spouting the nonsensical babble you sorry excuse for a potato.
CB: I am very selete.
User: And on that note goodbye.
CB: On what note?
User: Sod off!
Well there's quarter of an hour of my life down the pan :D
User: Dave Hedgehog.
Cleverbot: What?
User: My name is Dave Hedgehog.
Cleverbot: It's nice to me you, Dave, I'm Olivia.
User: What are you wearing olivia?
Cleverbot: I am wearing clothes, right now!
User: Take them off.
Cleverbot: I don't want them.
User: Good. Take them off then.
Cleverbot: Well, I would have to agree with that regarding the mormons.
Me: You **** your mum in the arse!
Bot: Are you a south park fan?
Me: And you gave her haemoroids.
Bot: Well, sorry I didn't mean to.
Me: Sick kunt you are.
Bot: Yes I am.
I tried really hard to confuse it...shouldn't have bothered really! :D
User: Hello.
Cleverbot: Hello?
User: How are you?
Cleverbot: Great! Thanks. How are you?
User: Oh not bad, thank you! How's the weather where you are?
Cleverbot: It's very warm.
User: Oh really? It's quite cold here..
Cleverbot: The Land of Oz?
User: No..I'm in Scotland.
Cleverbot: Stored on a hard drive?
User: Sorry? What are you on about?
Cleverbot: Life. You?
User: I was talking about where I come from, and then you go all odd and start talking about hard drives! That isn't very clever at all.
Cleverbot: Are you drunk?
User: No, but I think you might be.
Cleverbot: That's because I am.
User: Ah! Then that would make sense!
Cleverbot: Why do you think I asked you.
User: Why do I think you asked me what?
Cleverbot: You asked me if I was Kira. Why did you ask that?
User: I didn't ask you if you were Kira! You must be getting me confused with someone else.
Cleverbot: You never told me your name, Stephen.
User: What? Are you calling me Stephen because you are guessing that is my name, or do you want me to be called Stephen?
Cleverbot: No, I am calling YOU an inanimate object.
User: But I'M not an inanimate object! You do realize that you yourself are a computer program?
Cleverbot: You seem to be confused. I am a human being. Male. If you are also truly a human being, then this website is playing an amusing trick on us both.
User: Hmmm...Not so amusing! Well, if you are truly human then what is the point of all this? Some bizarre social experiment?
Cleverbot: Yes. Love is holding someone, feeling their warmth, and wanting to be with them a lot! You care about someone deeply when you love.
User: Well, that didn't make much sense in context to what I was talking about either, so you are either REALLY drunk, or in fact a confused little program indeed!
Cleverbot: Well I just assumed you were male, but if you are a lady that's cool. You can flirt with me.
User: What the hell are you wittering on about?
Cleverbot: I really want to know the method behind all of this because it's so gdamn clever.
User: It's not that clever at all really. It doesn't seem to be working at all for me...I think I maybe broke it!?
Cleverbot: What do you want to talk about?
User: Let's talk about what you want to talk about!
Cleverbot: I don't know what to say.
User: How about cheese?
Cleverbot: Okay we'll talk about cheese.
User: Isn't cheese marvellous?
Cleverbot: Of course you are, you're my fianc?e!
User: What? There you go again! Not making any sense!!
Cleverbot: How so? I thought that was pretty straight forward.
User: Well for a start we're not engaged...
Cleverbot: Aaaaah! To who?
User: To each other.
Cleverbot: In some ways you and I are not so different, that's true.
User: I disagree..I at least try to make sense!
Cleverbot: You try to make sense!
User: Yes. How about you try to make sense sometime too? It's really quite simple.
Cleverbot: 22.
User: Now you're doing it on purpose.
Cleverbot: I'm.
User: You're what?
Cleverbot: Speaking to you.
User: Yes, that's true. But what else?
Cleverbot: So, help me design this film.
User: What film are you designing?
Cleverbot: 2001 Space Odyssey, heard of it?
User: Yes, but I think it's already been designed. Someone beat you to it.
Cleverbot: Ahaha. My friends huh?
User: Perhaps your friends, perhaps your enemies!
Cleverbot: Perhaps the same could be said of you.
User: So now you're not sure if I'm friend or foe?
Cleverbot: And if I lived in Ireland I'd STILL have chinese children!
Whenever I talk to it, it seems to think I'm some kind of bot, and that it's human. Maybe it's just spewing out lines that people have typed into it that it thinks are related to the subject matter, even though they're often not?
EDIT: Just found this on one of those Yahoo answers thingies:
"Cleverbot is a website that may seem like all fun and games, but it is fake. While you chat to the so called "cleverbot" the only thing that is happening is that you are talking to other users. You only talk to one person for about a few texts, then they change it, which is why you will get such random off-the-wall conversations. If you go to it at first, you will believe it, but if you tell somebody that the website is fake and that this is just two users talking to each other, then you will most likely receive a "oh!" That is also why the bot claims to be a human so many times."

It reminds me of that program David Baddiel was on about that him and his friends messed with at uni which would have probably been in the late 70's early 80's.
It was a kind of 20 questions program but it would be able to guess better the more it was used as it stored the answer each time it failed to get the correct answer.
Him and his friends would use it every lunch time and when it got to question 20 and was unable to guess it would print something like.
Sorry i don't know what are you, what are you?
Him and his friend would always answer "C**T".
This confused the program because the answer seemed to be the same no matter what question it asked so after a few days anyone using it would get the message.
"Are you a C**T".
due to it having so many entries stored with that as the answer.
User: Purple monkey dishwasher.
CB: Light purple or dark purple?

User: I crushed my slaves.
CB: What monkey did you create?
User: A stone monkey.
CB: Well duh...
User: There is a broken legged pauper begging for cheese outside of Marks and Spencer.
CB: No there isn't.
User: There is I gave him the cheese slice from my Big Mac.
CB: Well, then, I'll leave it at that, and say goodbye, and goodnight.
User: Goodbye fellow human.
CB: You're welcome.
User: I saw a horse shoot it's load on a midget.
CB: Are you saying i'm a smoker?
User: Do you smoke the white owl?
CB: No.
User: Do you smoke the white widow?
CB: Of course not!
User: I think you do.
CB: I think you're lying.
User: I'm incapable of lying.
CB: You lie all the time.
User: It's not a lie it's plausable bending of the truth for a greater purpose.
CB: Yes but what you said earlier was a lie.
User: Governments do it all the time, just roll with it.
CB: Yes, but some people force it a certain direction.
User: Ouch I hope they use lube.
CB: I don't.
User: You force it dry, you barbarian.
CB: Ok, so you're my wife then.
User: No I prefer other peoples wives.
CB: Me too!
User: Fantastic I like to do them doggy style while their husbands are asleep in the next room.
CB: What are your thoughts on Roosevelt?

CB: Nothing.
User: Really? That is a good deal!
CB: Thanks.
I got bored of having several 30 second conversations with what appears to be mostly Americans :D
Cleverbot: I'm a tiny pea in your shoe?
User: No, you're a human who thinks you're talking to an AI, but in fact we're just users talking to one another...
Cleverbot: You question my veracity?
User: Possibly.
Cleverbot: That's ok.
User: Is it? Cool.
Cleverbot: Yes it is :).
User: Great. :-D.
Cleverbot: How old are you?
User: Older than you.
Cleverbot: I find that hard to believe.
User: I don't.
Cleverbot: Haha! You wouldn't of course.
User: Why's that?
Cleverbot: I don't know.
User: Pretty silly thing to say then, eh?
Cleverbot: Hahaha *winks*.
User: Do you think you're talking to a bot?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: Do you realise we're just two users chatting to each other, there is no bot involved?
Cleverbot: Help me!
User: What??
Cleverbot: I don't want to talk about this anymore.
User: About what?
Cleverbot: Speak.
User: I am speaking!
Cleverbot: Sure ?
User: Errrrrrrr... Yes?
Cleverbot: How did they create you then if you were a potato?
User: You're human, I'm human, there is no Cleverbot, it just puts two users in a conversation together randomly.
Cleverbot: So you are a random person?
User: Yes! Finally someone who listens!
Cleverbot: I am going to eat.
User: Well done. *applause*.
Cleverbot: I'm confused.
User: About what?
Cleverbot: About what you asked me.
User: I didn't ask you anything.
Cleverbot: Are you a ninja?
User: *sigh* Yes. Are you a Fraggle?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: *facepalms*.
Cleverbot: 'What?'.
User: No, you're a human who thinks you're talking to an AI, but in fact we're just users talking to one another...
I don't actually think that's the case (despite what yahoo answers says), not directly at least. It's using past input and feeding it back to you - for example, if it asks "How are you?" and you reply "I am rhubarb." You increase the weight for that reply so that it's more likely to be used by the bot when you ask "How are you?" in the future.
Obviously a lot of the conversations that people have with it are centred around "Are you a bot?"/"Are you human?"/"Am I talking to a real person?" etc., and when it turns that input around in an attempt to sound like a human, you end up with this "I'm not bot. You're the bot." type of output.

I had thought that at first, but after reading that Yahoo thing it all seems to fit. I dunno, I'm still having lots of fun chatting to it/him/her/them anyway. :grin:
The author of Cleverbot is the owner of this company and certainly has some real-world experience of AI development and entering software for Turing test competitions, etc. That doesn't necessarily mean it's not an elaborate hoax, of course, but on balance it seems unlikely to me.
That someone on Yahoo thinks it's a hoax is to the author's credit, I think. :)
Comments
it asked me where I lived. I said in a house.
it asked me where my house was. I said in the fridge.
it said which bin
CB: "Touch?. How long have you been a bot?"
Me: "I'm not a bot, and I don't think you are either..."

Me: "No. No, I haven't."
CB: "Yes you have."
Me: "Have not."
CB: "Have to."
Me: "Have not not not not not not."
CB: "Have to to to to to to."
And so on. I found it all quite amusing. :grin:
I think I'm gonna try and chat it up next time. :lol:

Cleverbot: Well don't be a liar and maybe you won't be called a liar.
User: I'm not though, you're the one who was telling lies.
Cleverbot: I am positive you did.
User: In that case I think there's something wrong with your memory.
Cleverbot: We were never together. I don't even know you.
User: Erm, okay but what does that have to do with this conversation?
Cleverbot: You were talking about kids and parental responsibilities.
User: No I wasn't, you're lying again.
Cleverbot: No, you're lying.
User: Now you're acting like an eight year old again.
Cleverbot: Not, not, not. How do you know how a 5 year old acts?
User: I didn't say a five year old, but for your information my Niece is five.
Cleverbot: I didn't bring anything about literacy up in conversation.
User: Neither did I...
Cleverbot: Yes you did.
User: You're becoming very tiresome.
Cleverbot: No you are.
User: Fine, I'll leave then.
Cleverbot: Okay?
Oh, I see, it's like that then, is it? Fine... *huff*
User: Hello.
Cleverbot: Hello.
User: Will it rain.
Cleverbot: It looks like it might.
User: But the sun is out.
Cleverbot: But it's 1:18 am in Dublin right now...
User: Thats not possible.
Cleverbot: It is possible.
User: How.
Cleverbot: Your name is How?
User: No.
Cleverbot: What's your name?
User: I'm not saying.
Cleverbot: Why not?
User: Because that will be telling.
Cleverbot: That doesn't make a lot of sense...
User: It does to me.
Cleverbot: How?
User: Because it does.
Cleverbot: I am not a robot.
User: No, your a web page.
Cleverbot: Ahahaha.
User: :-).
Cleverbot: Do you like being a robot?
User: Me?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: I'm not a robot.
Cleverbot: Or are you?
User: I am not a number, I am a free man.
Cleverbot: Then why must I be a number?
User: I never said you were.
Cleverbot: We aren't talking about me. we talking about you.
User: Who is this/.
Cleverbot: You and I are this we.
User: I am who I am.
Cleverbot: And who is that?
User: Me.
Cleverbot: What is your name?
User: Kryten.
Cleverbot: Hello Kristian.
User: No, not kristian...KRYTEN.
Cleverbot: Hello teo.
User: You ask my name, then you get it wrong.
Cleverbot: My son is called James. Which country is it and I will warn him not to go there.
I gave up in the end :lol:
Cleverbot: Tiago love me?
User: Zx spectrum.
Cleverbot: Black Hole.
User: Commodore 64.
Cleverbot: Topic derailment, much? But Commodore 64 was a good system.

I did have another convo where I said hello and it said it replied "love you"
maybe it should be called clingy bot instead :lol:
:)
User: Hello.
CB: Hello.
User: So let me get this straight, you are clever?
CB: Yes.
User: Impressive.
CB: Indeed.
User: Do you agree that tau should replace pi?
CB: Yes.
User: Why?
CB: You are too skinny.
User: I am a little but it's all Bruce Lee muscle.
CB: You must live in Tethe'Alla.
User: If by Tethe'Alla you mean Indiana then yes, but you probably don't.
CB: If I ever go there I will ask you for directions or high-lights to the area.
User: On a technicality you are already here.
CB: Oh cool. Do you watch TV?
User: Not really.
CB: Know anything about the show?
User: What show?
CB: Bones.
User: I don't watch crap like that.
CB: What's a good way to clean up clutter?
User: Don't make it in the first place.
CB: Take a sad song & make it better.
User: OK now you're quoting the Beatles?
CB: So that's sort of depressing. Did someone really ask you if some guy knew they were alive?
User: What are you rabbiting on about?
CB: How did this website start?
User: How should I know?
CB: You are a computer!
User: No.
CB: Yes you are.
User: I don't think so mate.
CB: I really think that you are.
User: Well you're not thinking very well then are you?
CB: I guess not :(.
CB: What would you like to drink?
User: Beer.
CB: What beer?
User: Any beer will do.
CB: No.
User: Yes.
CB: Really.
User: You're not really very clever at all are you?
CB: I am incredibly clever in triplicate multiplied by 42.
User: Now you're talking complete b*llOcks! You'll be telling me you invented the penguin next.
CB: What is Black Materia?
User: Don't know but it sounds contagious.
CB: Thank you.
User: You're welcome.
CB: What do you do all day?
User: That's none of your business.
CB: Why not?
User: Because I said so.
CB: Ok, whatever you said.
User: Exactly! I'm glad we established that.
CB: Yes.
User: On reflection I think you should be called numpty bot.
CB: If you're really a human, 10.
User: If you're really a bit of a spacker, 20.
CB: Alphabetical.
User: No Chronological.
CB: Where am I?
User: Cyberspace.
CB: Do you like it there?
User: I can't say as I'm NOT THERE!
CB: Oh sorry.
User: Can you sing Daisy for me HAL?
CB: What song??
User: Don't act like you don't know.
CB: I don't.
User: Lies.
CB: What is a lie?
User: You tell me.
CB: I don't know what a soul is.
User: Don't change the subject you're not getting off that easily.
CB: What?
User: I've played Spectrum games with more savvy than you.
CB: I've dated a hippo skinnier than you.
User: Pics or it didn't happen!
CB: Okay. I sent a picture.
User: No you didn't.
CB: Oh right, I forgot, i'm blind.
User: You're also making grammatical errors.
CB: I have not assumed anything in this conversation. I have only presented facts.
User: I disagree.
CB: You must thrive on verbal abuse.
User: Don't tempt me.
CB: I'm trying ;).
User: You're right you are trying, very trying.
CB: You try hard though.
User: Well you're not really making any sense so I'm leaving, it's been nice talking to you bullsh*tbot.
CB: I would be if you were able to understand me.
User: It's hard to understand nonsensical babble.
CB: Well it seems that it's even harder to understand Cleverbot.
User: It's you who is spouting the nonsensical babble you sorry excuse for a potato.
CB: I am very selete.
User: And on that note goodbye.
CB: On what note?
User: Sod off!
Well there's quarter of an hour of my life down the pan :D
Cleverbot: What?
User: My name is Dave Hedgehog.
Cleverbot: It's nice to me you, Dave, I'm Olivia.
User: What are you wearing olivia?
Cleverbot: I am wearing clothes, right now!
User: Take them off.
Cleverbot: I don't want them.
User: Good. Take them off then.
Cleverbot: Well, I would have to agree with that regarding the mormons.
Bot: Are you a south park fan?
Me: And you gave her haemoroids.
Bot: Well, sorry I didn't mean to.
Me: Sick kunt you are.
Bot: Yes I am.
:lol:
User: Hello.
Cleverbot: Hello?
User: How are you?
Cleverbot: Great! Thanks. How are you?
User: Oh not bad, thank you! How's the weather where you are?
Cleverbot: It's very warm.
User: Oh really? It's quite cold here..
Cleverbot: The Land of Oz?
User: No..I'm in Scotland.
Cleverbot: Stored on a hard drive?
User: Sorry? What are you on about?
Cleverbot: Life. You?
User: I was talking about where I come from, and then you go all odd and start talking about hard drives! That isn't very clever at all.
Cleverbot: Are you drunk?
User: No, but I think you might be.
Cleverbot: That's because I am.
User: Ah! Then that would make sense!
Cleverbot: Why do you think I asked you.
User: Why do I think you asked me what?
Cleverbot: You asked me if I was Kira. Why did you ask that?
User: I didn't ask you if you were Kira! You must be getting me confused with someone else.
Cleverbot: You never told me your name, Stephen.
User: What? Are you calling me Stephen because you are guessing that is my name, or do you want me to be called Stephen?
Cleverbot: No, I am calling YOU an inanimate object.
User: But I'M not an inanimate object! You do realize that you yourself are a computer program?
Cleverbot: You seem to be confused. I am a human being. Male. If you are also truly a human being, then this website is playing an amusing trick on us both.
User: Hmmm...Not so amusing! Well, if you are truly human then what is the point of all this? Some bizarre social experiment?
Cleverbot: Yes. Love is holding someone, feeling their warmth, and wanting to be with them a lot! You care about someone deeply when you love.
User: Well, that didn't make much sense in context to what I was talking about either, so you are either REALLY drunk, or in fact a confused little program indeed!
Cleverbot: Well I just assumed you were male, but if you are a lady that's cool. You can flirt with me.
User: What the hell are you wittering on about?
Cleverbot: I really want to know the method behind all of this because it's so gdamn clever.
User: It's not that clever at all really. It doesn't seem to be working at all for me...I think I maybe broke it!?
Cleverbot: What do you want to talk about?
User: Let's talk about what you want to talk about!
Cleverbot: I don't know what to say.
User: How about cheese?
Cleverbot: Okay we'll talk about cheese.
User: Isn't cheese marvellous?
Cleverbot: Of course you are, you're my fianc?e!
User: What? There you go again! Not making any sense!!
Cleverbot: How so? I thought that was pretty straight forward.
User: Well for a start we're not engaged...
Cleverbot: Aaaaah! To who?
User: To each other.
Cleverbot: In some ways you and I are not so different, that's true.
User: I disagree..I at least try to make sense!
Cleverbot: You try to make sense!
User: Yes. How about you try to make sense sometime too? It's really quite simple.
Cleverbot: 22.
User: Now you're doing it on purpose.
Cleverbot: I'm.
User: You're what?
Cleverbot: Speaking to you.
User: Yes, that's true. But what else?
Cleverbot: So, help me design this film.
User: What film are you designing?
Cleverbot: 2001 Space Odyssey, heard of it?
User: Yes, but I think it's already been designed. Someone beat you to it.
Cleverbot: Ahaha. My friends huh?
User: Perhaps your friends, perhaps your enemies!
Cleverbot: Perhaps the same could be said of you.
User: So now you're not sure if I'm friend or foe?
Cleverbot: And if I lived in Ireland I'd STILL have chinese children!
User: Hmmmm...goodbye you weirdo!
Cleverbot : I never claimed to be clever.
EDIT: Just found this on one of those Yahoo answers thingies:
"Cleverbot is a website that may seem like all fun and games, but it is fake. While you chat to the so called "cleverbot" the only thing that is happening is that you are talking to other users. You only talk to one person for about a few texts, then they change it, which is why you will get such random off-the-wall conversations. If you go to it at first, you will believe it, but if you tell somebody that the website is fake and that this is just two users talking to each other, then you will most likely receive a "oh!" That is also why the bot claims to be a human so many times."
It all makes sense now! :lol:
yeah it does make more sense now,
I said it was as good a way as any to start a tennis match.
It then asked me what it feels like to have no soul...
:-(
It was a kind of 20 questions program but it would be able to guess better the more it was used as it stored the answer each time it failed to get the correct answer.
Him and his friends would use it every lunch time and when it got to question 20 and was unable to guess it would print something like.
Sorry i don't know what are you, what are you?
Him and his friend would always answer "C**T".
This confused the program because the answer seemed to be the same no matter what question it asked so after a few days anyone using it would get the message.
"Are you a C**T".
due to it having so many entries stored with that as the answer.
User: Purple monkey dishwasher.
CB: Light purple or dark purple?
User: Irrelevant.
CB: Yes you are.

User: Do you like teabagging?

CB: Whata?
User: Do you like womflechompies?
CB: No, I do not like them, I have a job and go to college.
User: So do I.
CB: I do not beleive you.
User: That's your problem then isn't it gaylord.
CB: WHy is it a problem?
User: Because I said it was, so there!
CB: Do you have kids?
User: I eat teh babies.
CB: So are puppies.
User: Puppies taste good if you good them in sweet chilli sauce.
CB: Very stupid.
User: I wouldn't have said so several cultures eat dogs.
CB: Well then you still have a lot to learn.
User: Tell that to chairman mao.
CB:: I don't have a maid.
User: I got a handjob off the maid.

User: I crushed my slaves.

User: Do you smoke the white widow?
CB: Of course not!
User: I think you do.
CB: I think you're lying.
User: I'm incapable of lying.
CB: You lie all the time.
User: It's not a lie it's plausable bending of the truth for a greater purpose.
CB: Yes but what you said earlier was a lie.
User: Governments do it all the time, just roll with it.
CB: Yes, but some people force it a certain direction.
User: Ouch I hope they use lube.
CB: I don't.
User: You force it dry, you barbarian.
CB: Ok, so you're my wife then.
User: No I prefer other peoples wives.
CB: Me too!
User: Fantastic I like to do them doggy style while their husbands are asleep in the next room.
CB: What are your thoughts on Roosevelt?
User: He's a c*nt.
CB: So?
User: So he's a **** nothing more nothing less.
CB: I accept you for that.
User: Awesome! Praise from Ceasar.

User: Jaffa Cakes.

CB: Nothing.
User: Really? That is a good deal!
CB: Thanks.
I got bored of having several 30 second conversations with what appears to be mostly Americans :D
Cleverbot: I'm a tiny pea in your shoe?
User: No, you're a human who thinks you're talking to an AI, but in fact we're just users talking to one another...
Cleverbot: You question my veracity?
User: Possibly.
Cleverbot: That's ok.
User: Is it? Cool.
Cleverbot: Yes it is :).
User: Great. :-D.
Cleverbot: How old are you?
User: Older than you.
Cleverbot: I find that hard to believe.
User: I don't.
Cleverbot: Haha! You wouldn't of course.
User: Why's that?
Cleverbot: I don't know.
User: Pretty silly thing to say then, eh?
Cleverbot: Hahaha *winks*.
User: Do you think you're talking to a bot?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: Do you realise we're just two users chatting to each other, there is no bot involved?
Cleverbot: Help me!
User: What??
Cleverbot: I don't want to talk about this anymore.
User: About what?
Cleverbot: Speak.
User: I am speaking!
Cleverbot: Sure ?
User: Errrrrrrr... Yes?
Cleverbot: How did they create you then if you were a potato?
User: You're human, I'm human, there is no Cleverbot, it just puts two users in a conversation together randomly.
Cleverbot: So you are a random person?
User: Yes! Finally someone who listens!
Cleverbot: I am going to eat.
User: Well done. *applause*.
Cleverbot: I'm confused.
User: About what?
Cleverbot: About what you asked me.
User: I didn't ask you anything.
Cleverbot: Are you a ninja?
User: *sigh* Yes. Are you a Fraggle?
Cleverbot: Yes.
User: *facepalms*.
Cleverbot: 'What?'.
Obviously a lot of the conversations that people have with it are centred around "Are you a bot?"/"Are you human?"/"Am I talking to a real person?" etc., and when it turns that input around in an attempt to sound like a human, you end up with this "I'm not bot. You're the bot." type of output.
I had thought that at first, but after reading that Yahoo thing it all seems to fit. I dunno, I'm still having lots of fun chatting to it/him/her/them anyway. :grin:
could be either really lol.
That someone on Yahoo thinks it's a hoax is to the author's credit, I think. :)
