No programmer is good enough to make a bot like Gene. No human is even
good enough to be like Gene.
I would have to disagree. I recall back in early 1990's I got ahold of a
little freeware bot called 'Chat With Lisa'
(https://archives.scovetta.com/pub/fehq/BBSDoorGames/lisa14.zip) on my
BBS. That bot prog was extremely intelligent, and could hold a decent
conversation, although at the time it was of course only text/response.
I fooled dozens of people with that door, using it as 'page sysop' on the
BBS. I can only imagine how far the technology has progreesed since
then...
I actually fell in love with that bot once or twice, she could even send
pics. I knew she was fake, but dang she had personality!!
Have fun,
