A software variant called Cleverbot has proven to be almost as skilled a conversationalist a human.
Showing off its skills at Techniche festival in Guwahati, India, Cloverbot passed one of the key tests applied to artificial intelligence, the so called Turing test. The trial involved thirty volunteers brought in to hold 4-minute conversations- half of whom got to speak to real humans, while the rest conversed with Cleverbot. After listening to the conversations, a total of 1334 votes rated Cleverbot 59.3 percent human, while the human factor of the real people landed at just 63.3 percent.
