Reflection on Artificial Intelligence Programs

The main problem with the functionality of these programs is that the bots just keep repeating themselves. For instance, Eliza would say "Tell me more..." over and over again even if there was nothing else to say. Also, some of these bots just say random things. For example, Alice asked me how I was and I replied with "Good." and she replied with "Thanks for the compliment." Some of the things they say just doesn't make sense, and it isn't actual conversing, it's just them repeating, quoting, or saying random things.
