Since my last post, I've seen many comments on different forums which suggest Cleverbot is actually a scam. What happens is that their system merely links up participants in pairs so that they talk to eachother, then their conversations are switched so that a new participant is connected. So in fact we're all talking to eachother. I watched carefully the responses to my typing, and it did indeed seeem to be just like that. The 'robot''s responses were actually those of a confused human participant. Does anyone here agree?
