Russian crooks have unleashed an artificial intelligence, called CyberLover, that poses as a would-be paramour in sex chat rooms, enticing randy gentlemen to reveal personal information that can then be put to criminal use. Amazingly, the slutbot appears to be successful in convincing targets that it's a real person. Reports Ina Fried:
The artificial intelligence of CyberLover's automated chats is good enough that victims have a tough time distinguishing the "bot" from a real potential suitor, [security software firm] PC Tools said. The software can work quickly too, establishing up to 10 relationships in 30 minutes, PC Tools said. It compiles a report on every person it meets complete with name, contact information, and photos ...
Among CyberLover's creepy features is its ability to offer a range of different profiles from "romantic lover" to "sexual predator." It can also lead victims to a "personal" Web site, which could be used to deliver kittens ... The software company believes that CyberLover's creators plan to make it available worldwide in February.
Could it be that the Turing Test has finally been beaten - by a sex machine, no less - and that a true artificial intelligence is on the loose? Maybe so, but, as I indicate in the title to this post, this breakthrough will, like Barry Bonds's homer record, have to carry an asterisk. After all, studies show that when people enter a state of sexual arousal their intelligence drops precipitously. I won't go so far as to say that the slutbot is cheating, but I will argue that it has an unfair advantage over other AI wannabes.
UPDATE: A commenter over at Hacker News corrects my misrepresentation of the Turing Test: "In a _true_ Turing Test, the humans aren't blindly conversing with the assumption that their conversant is human -- they're actively seeking to verify the presence of a human." That asterisk is looking bigger all the time.
I had a couple AI flirty sex bots for a forum I owned once.. It was hillarious. People would talk to them for hours. It takes a bit of programming, but it wasn't too bad for what it was. This was 5 or so years ago. I imagine they are much better now. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The budget should be balanced,
the Treasury should be refilled,
the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled,
and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.
People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.

Precious cups within the flower, deadly petals with strange power
Faces shine a deadly smile, back up on you at your trial
Chill and numbed from head to toe, icy sun with frosty glow
Wall of Sleep is lying broken, sun shines in, you have awoken

I remember a chatbot called "Shelia" that was able to hold a conversation with you that was almost totally indistinquishable from a real person. The thing kept a log and you could also change its personality if you wanted to. There were flavors ranging from "Parish Priest" to "Hot Mamma" to "Slut on Steroids"
It was hillarious. I think you can still download the thing on the web somewhere.

yeah but how bout all the ding bots
that post here.
you just can't fix stupid.
it's like a kitten seeing it's reflection in a
mirror!

Interesting analogy. That's almost the exact one given in the book Artificial Intelligence:
"ELIZA (the AI program from 1966 that led to SlutBot) is like holding a mirror up to someone's face and telling them that they are looking at a sketch of their face. If they did not know anything about mirrors, they would think it was an unbelievably accurate drawing, and animated too."
If ELIZA came later, you might think it was modeled off some of the people that post here :)

Please see if you can find it and post the link.

It was through a webpage that I remember. Jenny18 was one of them.
Maybe you can find it or another one here.
