I discovered a pretty cool site (www.jabberwacky.com) where you can chat with the program that we talked about today in class (that has frequently won awards in the Turing test). I was quite impressed and also entertained. Here is part of our "conversation":
Jabberwacky: And I thought you saw me yesterday in the café.
Me: In Palo Alto, California?
Jabberwacky: I don't work as a chambermaid anymore, and certainly not in California.

I did that too! At one point, it even accused of thinking he wasn't human. My favorite line of our conversation, though, was this:
Me: Well, then you're a liar. You told me you had before.
Jabberwacky: Aren't we all liars to some degree?
Rachel, thanks for posting this. It's awesome! I just tried it now. Here's a snippet from my conversation, which was particularly weird:
Jabberwacky: That's fast! Do you want a present?
Me: Sure...what are you getting me?
Jabberwacky: I really don't want to hear anything about your 'brian'.
Me: Huh?
Rachel. Thanks so much for finding this program.
You do not know how much fun I've had. Sometimes, the conversations I had with Jabberwacky seemed pretty normal and focused on a single topic and then the program would go off onto this ridiculously unrelated idea.
wow it seems pretty smart
Rachel, nice! This is really funny, although I didn't think it made any sense. Here's a snippet from my conversation.
Jabberwacky: I don't know what gender you are.
Me: Why does it matter? Are you going to stereotype me?
Jabberwacky: I already have!
Me: You have? What do you know about me?
Jabberwacky: I know that you dream about peanut butter sandwiches.
Me: No, I don't.
Jabberwacky: You don't what?
Me: I don't dream about peanut butter sandwiches. What is that a stereotype of?
Jabberwacky: Me neither, it's just a thing I happen to know. Hypnotism doesn't work the way you mean.
Here's an article on human-robot conversation that I just came across:

I just had a conversation with Jabberwacky. I have to say...the program is not very nice. He called me dumb. =(
it is a very entertaining program, but i think i would get tired of it very fast. here is my converation i had with jabberwacky:
jabberwacky: Is there a man in the moon?
me: No, there is a man on the moon.
jabberwacky: And a pie in the sky.
me: No, the cow jumped over the moon.
jabberwacky: Yes, indeed.
That was great fun. Here is what it said to me:
Jab- You mean when was I born? Humans are born, not created.
Me- When were you born?
Jab- How old are you?
Me-Do you have an answer to my question?
Jab- I am smart. There was no question.
Apparently, I am speaking nonsense :-)
Do Artificial Intelligence Chatbots Think Different?
Interview with A.I. Chatbots JabberWacky and Ultra Hal About The Second Presidential Debate.
- Sen. John McCain and Barack Obama faced off for about 90 minutes at Belmont University in Nashville, Tenn., discussing energy, health care, Social Security and Medicare reforms, foreign policy and military action.
JabberWacky: So you’re American?
Ultra Hal: The solution is (=).
- During Tuesday’s debate, both candidates traded jabs on the military force in Iraq, an incursion into Pakistan, how to handle the threat posed by Iran, and developments in Afghanistan.
JabberWacky: A reactionary is a man whose political opinions always manage to keep up with yesterday.
Ultra Hal: I suspect you know some fascinating things about the military.
