There's a running joke in the field that AI is the set of things that computers cannot yet do well.

We used to think that you had to be intelligent to be a chess grandmaster. Now we know that you only have to be freakishly good at chess.

Now we're having a similar realization about conversation.

Didn't really need an AI for chess to know that. A look at how crazy some grandmasters will show you that. Bobby Fischer is the most obvious one, but there's quite a few where you wish they would stop talking about things that aren't chess.
