Over the last couple of weeks, new forms of spam comments have been appearing on blogger. One type takes a sentence or two from the post itself, and feeds them through a parser reminiscent of ELIZA, to produce a vaguely coherent statement in a comment. Another type that I've noticed grabs a sentence or two from an article that was linked in the original post. A third type combines these two, taking a sentence from a linked article, and chewing on it with the ELIZA-like parser. A few more years of this, and we'll have the spontaneous evolutionary development of generalized natural-language artificial intelligence from blogger spam....
