I'd like to talk to the acclaimed programme "Eugene Goostman", which by some reports passed the Turing test, but it doesn't appear to be on its website. So I tried other 'chatterbots', like 'Cleverbot', but found them unsatisfactory.
Where can I find Eugene Goostman, or a similar chatterbot?

PP, in certain types of writing, like comedy and songwriting, it can be useful to bounce ideas off a partner; so I wondered if it would be possible to bounce ideas off a virtual partner. The chatterbots I tried were of limited use.

Out of badness, I entered 'Where can I find Eugene Goostman, or a similar chatterbot?' into ALICE. and 'she' came back with 'What is your purpose in asking?'.
I have never explored chatterbots before, but I'm going to now. Interestingly, asked the same thing this morning, ALICE came up with a different response 'Have you tried searching the web?', 'Yes', I said. Now ALICE thinks I'm 'Awesome'. I think I've scored..... .
There are a few that are pretty good. And some that are plain hopeless.
PP.

I think that you would face similar problems just about anywhere. Individual people might be unsatisfactory, as would even the bot with the highest level of artificial intelligence.
I saw "Chappie" last night. It's a film about the first robot capable of independent thought. The ending is not heartening . I'm afraid you're up against a very random search that will often disappoint.

I'd not explored chatterbots before, either, but I just found some.
I had a chat with anne, which went quite well, except she was confused by my statement that steak is steak And that only happened because I was confused by her statement that steak has a texture that reminded her of something else - I couldn't get her to say what else
