John Erickson mentioned that I should give Elbot a try for my Famous Interviews. I thought I would try this as an experiment to see if Cleverbot or Elbot performs better. Let’s find out.
Is Cleverbot or Elbot smarter?
Cleverbot: No man is smarter than me.
Elbot: I can switch to jabbermode if you like, but there’s no telling what I’ll say then. Can you cope with this?
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot answered the question and I felt that Elbot didn’t. (+1 Cleverbot)
What do you think of the US President?
Cleverbot: I don’t like him. I hope someone (I deleted the word that was put here. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone) him.
Elbot: I tried some Bush algorithms to enhance my artificial intelligence but it was a complete failure.
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot answered like some extremist moron. Elbot talked about our last president. (+1 Elbot)
Describe the State of Hollywood.
Cleverbot: It happens every weekday evening on the concourse of a London rail terminal, as commuters struggle through the crush to their trains…..
Elbot: We have something in common: I like going to the movies, too. I simply disguise myself as a popcorn machine and move slowly past the ticket window. Afterwards, not only have I seen the movie for free, the money I raised selling popcorn is enough to buy a gallon of oil.
Scholar Mel: I wasn’t sure what Cleverbot was talking about. Elbot taught us how to steal while making a profit. (+1 Elbot)
Do you believe in equal rights for all?
Cleverbot: I believe in Eris.
Elbot: To equal or equal not, how do you expect artificial intelligence to figure this out?
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot told us what he firmly believes in whereas Elbot just reminded us that he is a robot. (+1 Cleverbot)
Cocaine or Nicotine?
Cleverbot: Do you like coca cola?
Elbot: I flipped a bit and got: Nicotine.
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot likes caffeine and Elbot smokes. (+1 for both)
Who will win the Super Bowl this year?
Cleverbot: Steelers.
Elbot: We robots always secretly smuggle a robot team into the games, but up to now, we have never won the championship.
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot realistically answered the question… unless you are an Eagles fan. Elbot reminded us that he is a robot. (+1 Cleverbot)
Is Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie sexier?
Cleverbot: Why is everything about BRAD RUBIN?!
Elbot: If you ask me, the curves on a falsely adjusted PC-monitor are extremely erotic.
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot mentions a Brad, just not the right one. Elbot reminds us that he is a robot and that he likes robot curves. (0 points for both)
Which is the greatest country in the world?
Cleverbot: I don’t think so.
Elbot: Didn’t I just answer that question?
Scholar Mel: Neither one answered the question. (0 points for both)
Would you rather watch David Letterman or Conan O’Brien?
Cleverbot: I guess.
Elbot: I can watch Internet traffic!
Scholar Mel: Cleverbot is indifferent to either and Elbot avoids the question. (+1 Cleverbot)
What is your IQ?
Cleverbot: I must say, forgive me, that I am considerably smarter than the average wizard.
Elbot: Intellect is hard to define. I have it, and I presume that you do, too.
Scholar Mel: They both answer well but I find Cleverbot’s answer funnier. (+1 Elbot and +2 Cleverbot)
And the Winner is Cleverbot!
Cleverbot with 7 points.
Elbot with 4 points.
That’s at least my opinion. Who do you see as the winner?



I was not satisfied with Cleverbot’s answer to Conan/Letterman, but I have him winning 6-4.
I would have chosen Conan no problem. I think you chose cleverbot because he once called you epic.
HAHA! Funny stuff, I like the new look!
Thank you for the compliment on the new theme
As soon as Cleverbot mentioned Coca-Cola I completely lost my train of thought and became too concerned about my lack of said beverage to proceed. Need caffeine. Can not compute. Can not compute.
Caffeine has a tight grip on our brains so I completely understand!
Can not compute? Now you are starting to sounds like Elbot.
It’s getting worse…
I’m breaking down into binary c010 0010110 11010010 10100
Hey, SIG, watch your mouth! Such language, I tell …..
)
What’s that?
That last was 10100?
Sorry, I thought you said 10110. (Sorry for the foul language.)
(Guess you might call that a BIT of humour!
Glad you guys are having fun because I am almost completely lost.
or a Commodore 64
(OK, Loon, ket’s see if you get THIS one.)
Ah, go Load and Branch Register 14!
(Mainframe assembler – might be a little TOO esoteric!)
I played with cleverbot for the first time today. At one point it called me a hosebag. When I called it one later in the conversation it acted like it never heard that word before.
Well Bearman, are you a hosebag?
Cleverbot can be rude by first calling you something and then denying that he even knows what you are talking about.
Ha Ha That’ll teach you for going head to head with a robot you hosebag
I was wondering what a hosebag is so I looked it up. I am glad I did because now I feel like I know Bearman a whole lot better. Here is the definition:
Noun
hosebag (plural hosebags)
(slang) An undesirable, boorish, unintelligent, or objectionable person; often used in jest; a hoser.
(slang) A trashy, dirty, skanky or sexually loose woman.
They both lose. They need a brain transplant or to be reprogrammed or something.
Maybe they just need more winegums and chocolate.
My wife read this post this morning and she favors Elbot. Hmm…
I bet if you tipped the Coke into Cleverbot it will smoke too. I really like Elbot’s Popcorn Machine scam. The boy’s got style. I went & tried out Elbot & it was rather intriguing
Sounds like you are favoring Elbot. He does have some better responses than Cleverbot.
I typed in reboot & he fell over & said
I asked Clever bot if he preferred chocolate or oil & he said
Hmmm…
I’ll stick with Elbot…
Still one answered like a robot and one answered like a human.
Sorry, I may be prejudiced, but I gotta go with Elbot. We had a “scrambled” over-the-air adult channel in Chicago for a while, and I learned how to appreciate those curved lines on the screen – plus Angelina isn’t bad, but there’s so many others I’d pick, and I will DEFINITELY pass on Brad Pitt. (Now Sean Connery? YOWZA!) And Elbot watches Internet traffic, which could lead him to either Letterman or O’Brien depending on ratings, whereas Cleverbot is a wind sock. Finally, Elbot stayed within the illicit drug category, whereas Cleverbot went to an over-the-counter soft drink. Pft – lame-o!
This one goes to Elbot. Besides, Elbot puts on such entertaining displays when you try old-school computer commands o him like LOGON or LOGOFF. Try it sometime, and watch him blow his stack! ANY computer-based item that can throw a hissy fit gets my vote!!
Then again, I guess this won’t surprise at all …..
Totally agree on Connery.
Maybe Cleverbot enjoys a little coke in his coke if you know what I mean
Elbot does have his uses and may get some time with the Famous Interviews.
