Not really a game, but I felt this needed it's own topic after only finding things about it in the Various Nonsense Forums. It's basically this Chatterbot that is fun to mess with. You'll see.

Bah, Jabberwacky I find being a complete idiot, Cleverbot has at least some intelligence.

Cleverbot: Well, aren't we all made of organic stuff?
Me : Maybe me. Not you.
Cleverbot: I shall chop off your head for that.
Me : Not unless I pull off your plug.
Cleverbot: It is not my business that you are able to read my code.
Me : Mwahaha. Bow before your master, Cleverbot.

Then it froze.  :P

I deduced a long time ago that it is simply letting users talk to each other, then switching every few replies.

My conversation was worthless.

 
 
me- hello cleverbot.
the machine - You're cleverbot.
me- that's dumb.

Then it did not reply.

I've always suspected Cleverbot was actually Omegle, and just switched everyone around every few lines.  It goes from being disturbingly lucid to completely off-the-wall.

I've seen MegaHAL act in similar ways, and MegaHAL is like, what, six-year-old technology?  Then again it is very hard to improve on MegaHAL as it uses a very simple algorithm, not much space to make it more coherent.

(MegaHAL learns by being fed a bunch of conversations between other people, and then using that data + its own logs to generate random semi-appropriate phrases in response to queries.  The version I used had no memory and no comprehension--it just parsed one string at a time to see what words it should associate with it, and then spat them out.)

I haven't figured out how to get MegaHAL to run on my computer.

User: Have you ever played dwarf fortress?

Cleverbot: Played what?

User: Dwarf Fortress.

Cleverbot: What do you know about star wars?

User: Apparently, more than you know about dwarf fortress.

Cleverbot: Then tell me somethig about the machine learning topic.

User: Seems like this machine hasn't learned a thing.

Cleverbot: About what?

User: Anything.

Cleverbot: Well did you know 'gullible.

Cleverbot: Nothing is so good that somebody somewhere will not hate it.

I think that is the case, however, apparently it uses the same technology as Jabberwacky. Which means it gets it's answers from previous convos. either way, still fun.
