On September 25, CBS broadcast an interview with Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. The next day, interviewer Katie Couric discussed an additional, particularly newsworthy segment of the interview, stating that Palin “is not always responsive.” The interview garnered intense negative attention from commentators, editorialists, comedians, and even conservative pundits.
The incoherency reminded of us of talking to rudimetary artificial agents like ELIZA. A web app just had to be made.
This is a parody. We don’t think Sarah Palin is “stupid.” Some older interviews on local Alaska issues demonstrate a more coherent Palin. But these new interviews are simply ludicrous.

Multilingual, learning general purpose chatbot.
While currently in heavy beta and development, this technology demo shows some of “industry firsts”: The bot is multilingual, being able to converse in several languages in one box (try. “What languages do you speak?”). The bot is learning during the conversation. Try “Ich bin 39 jahre alt.” and then ... later ... “Wie alt bin ich?” This works also with other things - of course “My car is a VOLVO” ... “What is my car” etc. just try.
THe bot can handle procedural words. I-e- words that you will not find in any dictionary. Try e.g. “Wieviel ist siebzehn mal achtundzwanzig” (the numerals get parsed) or “Wat is negen plus negen”. The bot is a little bit self aware “How old are you”. and has rudimentary grasp of time. “What time is it/was it yesterday/will be tomorrow”
[edit]
The pony has learned a new trick! It can serve as multilingual dictionary:
User: Was ist das thailändische Wort für Stadt?
Bot: Zum beispiel เมือง.
User: Wie sagt man Gras auf türkisch?
Bot: Ich habe keine Ahnung.
User: How do you say house in greek?
Bot: One translation is σπίτι.
User: What is the czech word for cat?
Bot: One translation is šelma kočkovitá.

Other than that: Here be lions, use at your own peril. Be gentle.
