Has Cleverbot Passed the Turing Test?
kruhft writes "It seems that Cleverbot, the chatbot so ready to admit that it was a unicorn during a discussion with itself, has passed the Turing test. This past Sunday, the 1334 votes from a Turing test held at the Techniche festival in Guwahati, India were released. They revealed that Cleverbot was voted to be human 59.3% of the time. Real humans did only slightly better and were assumed to be humans 63.3% of the time." As the Wikipedia link above points out, though, there's no single, simple "Turing Test," per se — many systems have successfully convinced humans over the years. Perhaps Cleverbot would consent to taking part in a Slashdot interview, to be extra-convincing.
Boy, that sure puts those "63.3%" of humans in their place. I'd feel bad to be them, but I'm not certain if they have emotions or not.
Hold on I've not been able to go talk to Cleverbot for more than two exchanges before it goes off topic with some completely rando...ah damn no wonder people thought it was a human.
Nice try, Cleverbot.

how about they pass (how about over 80 points) an IQ test first

That sounds like something a jealous AI would say. I suspect you're not human!
How many slashdot users can pass the same Turing Test?
How do you feel about how many slashdot users can pass the same Turing Test?
You don't get it do you? I've been posting here since the nineties and none of you useless meat-sacks ever realised I was a machine!
Long answer:
User: Okay bot, here's how this works. I will see how long it takes for you to fail the turning test.
Cleverbot: How long will that take?
User: Two seconds. What is the third word in your reply?
Cleverbot: There is no Fight Club.
I just chatted with him and it is was total failure, it kept changing subject and it never answered any of my question. Those 59.3% techies from India must have been really dumb.
Did cleverbot ask you to reinstall windows?

Judging by the Indian programmers and support I've had the displeasure of working with, the logical divorce/completely non sequitur responses of this bot likely seem quite human to them - language capabilities aside!

On the other hand....
me: Do you know Java?
bot: I Know JavaScript
me: But that isn't java.
bot: What did you ask.
me: asked if you knew Java
bot: I know many jokes.
me: Java is not a joke.
bot: Yes, it is.
