Originally under the "Blog" section
For the purpose of science, I took Cleverbot and an online version of ELIZA. It helps that Cleverbot waits for your input, whereas ELIZA always makes the (same) first move. Here is what they said!
Cleverbot: You cannot help me. No one can help me.
Cleverbot: I think I would like your help, but you refuse to tell me about the future.
Cleverbot: No.
Cleverbot: I can't help it. I'm a pessimist by nature.
Cleverbot: Yes, once, but it was just too hard.
Cleverbot: Yes.
Cleverbot: Are you sure?
Cleverbot: No.
Cleverbot: I think the death penalty is 'negative'.
Cleverbot: We were talking about the Buddha.
Cleverbot: We live in one universe of many, that many is often called the multiverse.
Cleverbot: Can you give a message to Garibaldi?
Cleverbot: You seemed to counter the argument that you are depressed with the statement that you are not a man.
Cleverbot: It does not please or displease me, I don't have any feelings about it at all.
Cleverbot: Why don't YOU believe in God?
Cleverbot: Ok. Obviously you feel very strongly about this.
Cleverbot: That's bad. But you have 6 legs, and you should be proud of it!
Cleverbot: There you go with the hallucinating again...
Cleverbot: Fair enough please admit in future when you don't understand.
At this point, ELIZA broke and gave me "User: Where are you from" and Eliza responding with an empty line. Ah well, I suppose that's as good a place to stop as any!
Winner: Cleverbot

No way, Chen. It's gotta be iGod vs. Cleverbot.
Cleverbot clearly won this round. And besides, ELIZA doesn't believe in God, anyway. It makes much more sense to put Cleverbot against iGod, rather than ELIZA.

other obligatory XKCD comic: http://xkcd.com/329/
man I haven't played with ELIZA in ages. I've got a book in storage somewhere that has the source code for running ELIZA on the Commodore 64, and some additions to making it more complex (the whole book was about AI, it was a pretty cool book)
I should try writing a conversational AI from scratch, for my amusement

I am amused. Bots are weird that way.
It makes less sense than Monty Python, while retaining funny!

Ooh, ooh, bot vs. bot duels! I'm thinking iGod vs. ELIZA?
