It is also an AI designed with varying degrees of success, to have enough mastery of human language, sentence structure and constructive reasoning, to be able to converse with a human at length to the point that the human believes they are conversing with another human.
Typically chatbots have been used to advance the cause of strong AI and natural language interfaces.
