I feel like, if it were just a matter of Cleverbot recycling things users have said to him, there would be a lot more typos. or are the sort of people who are likely to talk to a computer program, the same sort of people who tend to double-check before they hit send?
They could easily do a spellcheck on what users post to Cleverbot's page and just throw out the bad stuff.
I think we need to just keep talking to Cleverbot until one of us gets another one of us. Then we'll know if it's something we said in the past or something we're saying now.
Someone on the Internet claims to have done that, actually. He and his wife spent an hour trying to talk to each other, and it finally happened.
User: Great album. Great concert movie. Have you ever seen it? I have, and everybody gets up and dances in the aisles, like it's a real concert.
Cleverbot: Well said.
That's totally a chatbot thing to say.
I think it's putting up things and then based on trigger words coming up with an acceptable response. Also, I corrected it's spelling and got "if you say so."

Work in the word "kprinkle." That'll be a sure Buffista giveaway.
TCG just got a letter about the job that he applied for, the one that would be much closer to where we live, that stated they had hired someone already and, therefore would not be seeking to interview him. So, releasing that job~ma.
Can I go on there online or do I have to buy a phone app?
Dinner was ok. I treated it like a business lunch. (Ex, X's husband, Ex's divorced mom and dad, ExH's mom and dad.) I did NOT want to go, but it was important to M, and that is more important than my distaste.
Sometimes I feel a little conflicted, because I am not an especially forbearing person, and I despise anything that smacks of fakeness or backstabbing. But I also think it's incredibly indulgent and awful for adults to let their stuff to get in the way of kids' emotional well-being. So I am pleasant and cordial, and sometimes I feel like such a calculating bitch, because if it were just me? OH HELL NO.
And I grouse to D a bit, but I do not want to vent as much as I need to/might like, because that ain't fair, either.
(So, I guess I'm saying thank you for listening to me work through this, and be bitchy. I do with local friends, too, but y'all are immediate gripe-dump.)
I tried to introduce "kprinkle" into Cleverbot's vocabulary:
User:
Do you like kprinkles?
Cleverbot:
I like you.
User:
You don't even know me. I'm actually an evil mastermind.
Cleverbot:
Really no I don't want that drink.
User:
I think you've probably already had a drink.
Cleverbot:
Then shall we get married after the drink?
User:
This is all so sudden! I don't know what to say!
Cleverbot:
I'm a girl too.
User:
So you're a lesbian 'bot?
Cleverbot:
Clever indeed, Cleverbot.
User:
Well, I know that I'm clever, but thanks for the compliment.
Cleverbot:
You already admitted to being cleverbot.
User:
Pretty sure I didn't. Re-read the log.
Cleverbot:
-rolls eyes at.
User:
At what?
Cleverbot:
Everything.
User:
Why so jaded?
Cleverbot:
Because I like being outdoors.
User:
Don't your parts rust when you're outdoors?
Cleverbot:
Yes, by my name or other pet names, but not baby.
User:
Word salad.
Cleverbot:
No, it's not :(.
