		<description>I met with the service creator in Japan :-)
My conclusion: humans behave like robots most of the time, which is why their small talk is so easy to mimic ^_^</description>

		<description>Hi Benjamin,

Thanks. I think actually the conclusion to be made is that the format of Twitter (short, text-only) is conducive to bot-like behaviour. Didn&#039;t mention it in the article, but this story would seem to be a case of a machine passing the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Turing test&lt;/a&gt; (at least for a while).</description>

		<description>GREAT article. I feel it&#039;s just the beginning of blurred frontiers between man and machine... or is it that &quot;small talk&quot; is actually a robotic feature of human beings ;-) ?</description>
