Ya think that those are PhD students in AI testing the new program that
simulates an intellectual. Some years ago there had been a report that
the guys working in Artificial Intelligence wrote a program that
simulate a house wife. It means that nobody can distinguish whom he is
talking - computer or alive person. Apparently they are on the very
early stage as the monologue sounds pretty idiotic. But give them some
time. And the replies of the honorable src members help the testing.

Programming is science?

Programming (Computer Science) is a mixture of mathematics, science,
and engineering.

It is mathematics in the development of computational algorithms.

It is science when involving human factors.

And, it is engineering when building a large software project.
