Conversations with Lita
Lita, is a chatbot.
"[H]er personality is very much a mixture of many people, ordinary people like you and me. She chats, listens, learns and improves her character accordingly. The more she interacts, the more her character develops. As you have probably figured out so far, Lita is a chat bot. But hey, she's no Einstein. The plan was never to make her smarter than you and me. The plan was her to blend in among the users of ICQ without giving away that she was a robot."
(Note: Ananova who's face we've borrowed is not a bot, but a news reader, converting text to speech.)
