Green flag to start a weird conversation with the Scratch cat: this project simulates the basic version of a chatterbot
Thinking about today's prompt my mind went first to an project I made with @AngelaSofiaRobotics for WeScratch (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/397482528/) and I thought about modifying it but then I noticed that the "answer" block could fit inside the "ask" and realized that this, put inside a "forever" would generate a chatterbot. A really disturbing one. So I recalled ELIZA an old chatterbot that basically repeats what you say but with some changes to make the conversation reasonable, but still silly (it's the bot inside emacs, for those that use this text editor). So I started to manipulate the answer to get a new question by separating the answer into words in order to change their order or replace them (e.g. I am with you are). Then I noticed it was too late and stop, at least for now
