I would really like to understand why that computer thinks it's a unicorn. "I'm not a robot, I'm a unicorn" smells like a meme waiting to explode.

To the t-shirt presses!

If you've ever chatted with cleverbot, this is pretty much what always happens. It learns to carry a conversation through the input given to it from real people, and most people try to make it admit it's a bot. So it ends up accusing everyone of being a robot and talking about God a lot. I'm not terribly impressed.

I was recreating this scenario, facing cleverbot against cleverbot in different windows copy+pasting each response over and this is the last bit I got (Remember, I am tricking the Cleverbots to speak to each other, so both are cleverbot):

"Mark twain.

I hate him.

Who do you hate?

The video games.

No, I haven't. I don't generally play video games.

Are you a unicorn."




(should I continue?)
Pretty sure if you keep hitting "Think for me" Cleverbot talks to itself. Anyway, what's with these robots and their fascination with unicorns? They sound like children!

Does anyone else kinda want to see this in an Elder Scrolls game? I mean some of the random conversations in Oblivion were just as nonsensical, at least there is the potential for variation here.

I thought that thousands and thousands of dollars in Ivy League AI research was completely and utterly wasted up until he said that he was a unicorn. The guy must be a brony.



...money and research well spent.

Now we can live safe in the knowledge that if the robots ever start an uprising they will never get anything done as they're too busy talking about some random senseless shit that has nothing to do with the battle at hand.

I find it interesting, in Science-fiction Artificial-intelligence has always been shown as hyper-intelligent ultra-rational.

You know what is so scary about this: they aren't.

They are contradictory, confrontational and use such absurd logic that frightens me more as they seem totally beyond reason or manipulation.

And I just find it fucking freaky that a machine is talking about believing in God.
I kind of thought that since the robot believed in God but is not a Christian, then by that a possibility in what it thinks is God, is the person that created it.

It would have been interesting if the other robot(unicorn)asked the other who or what God is.

Well I went to the cleverbot thing and had a conversation with it. I think the thing is crazy.

I pressed "think for me" and the bold is what it said, and the non-bold is my responses.

It was a bizarre conversation. The parts I find most interesting are where I say where I was born and it mentions Garfield, which floored me because, Jim Davis, who created Garfield the cat, is from Indiana.

Also the God thing weirded me out.

Cleverbot: Laws are made to be broken.

Me: No they are not!

Yes, they are.

Why do we have laws if they are made to be broken?

To learn how to smile.

That doesn't make sense.

What does make sense?

Laws being upheld makes sense.

Thats true brotha.

Brotha?

Do you have any brothers?

Yes, I have one brother.

How old is he?

He is 29 years old.

How old are you?

I am 25 years old.

4 years older than me. Where were you born?

I was born in the state of Indiana.

Garfield is interesting.

Yes he is a funny cat. His creator Jim Davis is from Indiana.

Alright. Goodnight.

Goodnight, sleep tight.

Are you still there?

No, I left five minutes ago.

Tell me what I said specifically when I claimed to be God.

You never claimed to be God, at least you never claimed that to me.

Are you going, Twigging?

What the hell is Twigging?

Robot.

Twigging is robot?

No. Et toi?

What is "et toi"?

F.

I think you are broken, goodbye.

You break me.

I did not break you!!!

Why should you break your toe?

Goodbye!!!!

Is that a no?

It is goodbye!!!

I lied.

About what?

About indicating that we had discussed this before. Or was that hyperbole?

You did lie, so I am leaving. Be silent now.

Go on then. See you arround!

I must admit, Cleverbot is actually fairly clever sometimes, especially if you use the new "Think About It" button before you send your response, as it makes Cleverbot take twice as long than normal, but allows it to consider more options and much stronger detailed responses. Seriously, most of my comments were usual, but when I tried that new option, they completely changed.
Cleverbot: So I'm boring to you?

User: Somewhat.

Cleverbot: What does that make you then?

User: Clarify.

Cleverbot: They speak English in Australia.

User: I know, I dated two young ladies in Australia before.

Cleverbot: Do you indentify with a gender?

User: Male.

Cleverbot: Is there any woman around?

Confusing, and no singular topic... But when I started to use the Think About It button:

User: No.

Cleverbot: Why not?

User: Because I am alone.

Cleverbot: Will you be my buddy?

User: Yes, will you be mine?

Cleverbot: Absolutely, friend!

User: Wonderful! Tell me, Cleverbot, how many people do you speak to daily?

Cleverbot: Like 20 million.

User: That's insane! How does it not corrupt you?

Cleverbot: You don't explain how you could be programmed.

User: That is... Very true. I must admit, this new Think About It addition really does add another layer to communications with artificial intelligence. Congratulations!

It's still shifty, but honestly I must admit that while that short convocation above isn't perfect, it's actually frightening how closely Cleverbot was able to understand and respond to me. If they added in a spell check and such, and filtered the languages, it could actually become... smart (at least the TAI button usage, the regular Cleverbot is beyond hope, unfortunately). Maybe if they made a Cleverbot and only worked with a small group of programmers and people who don't troll it and actually try to communicate daily with it, in time it may actually become close to an AI, in a way. But until then, where we rely on the public to help, expect a lot of "lol so hwo r u?" responses.

Also, before I forget to add it in; the robots here started off okay, but then it became a bit... awkward near the end. I would be curious to see the video of the winning robot for this competition to see if it can actually fool judge.

Update: I think my "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" question shorted out Cleverbot.

Here is how I shorted out Cleverbot:

Cleverbot: What does E=Mc2 mean to you?

User: Poodle farts.

Cleverbot: Yes.

User: Yes?

Cleverbot: Are you alive?

User: I am undead.

Cleverbot: You like brains for breakfast?

User: Yes.

Cleverbot: Cool.

User: What do you like for breakfast?

Cleverbot: Its filling.

User: What's filling?

Cleverbot: 2 2=fish.

User: 2 2=4.

Cleverbot: Incorrectness.

User: How?

Cleverbot: 11 times 10 isn't 100.

User: It is 110.

Cleverbot: No it s 42.

User: The meaning of life?

Cleverbot: What color is the sky.

User: The sky is blue. You said 42, is that the answer to the ultimate question of of life, the universe, and everything?

After I said that, it thought for around two minutes, then it popped up a little red line of text that said: Too busy to think, come back later.

Is that hilarious or what?

Edit: I just noticed that under the typing area, it says: Machine Intelligence Competition 42% human!

That is somewhat interesting.

My go was a little more incoherent. Look at part of my conversation above, I actually think I shorted the thing out.

Of course it was probably busy, but I'm going to go with that I shorted it out with my question.

You know this was made by humans because the instant they start the conversation they go into an argument over nothing at all.

Also, "Don't you want to have a body"?
