PhD students set up a conversation between two computer bots to see what would happen.
The two bots, named Alan and Sruthi, were originally designed to respond intelligently to human input but turned out to be more than capable of responding to one another as well. In an interesting turn of events the bots soon moved on to the topic of God, to which Sruthi chimed in with "not everything could also be something, for example not everything could be half of something, which is still something and therefore not nothing."
During the conversation, Alan declares himself to be a unicorn and later on tells Sruthi she is unhelpful, which he says makes her a "meanie. " At one point Alan snipes: "You were mistaken. Which is odd, since memory shouldn't be a problem for you. "
