A
Chatterbot is a program that attempts to simulate typed
conversation. It's responses are all programmed, but when
questioning the same question twice, his answers can be
different. Chatterbots are related to the field of Natural
Language, which is related to Artificial Intelligence.
When
you try one of the top chatterbots (on the left), you'll
notice the development is already quite far. Normal conversations
can be held, although sometimes you may get a bit of a strange
answer. But hey, who says humans don't?
Like
any person chatterbots seem to have a sort of personality
which is expressed by their answers. You'll notice that
when chatting with a chatterbot, or reading one of the chatlogs
(see Funny Conversations).
To
see how normal a conversation with a chatterbot can be,
