Chatbots are definitely one of the next big things. They are already taking care of a lot of things on our devices: they order food, help with shopping, book tickets. Bots are extensively used as personal assistants in business or everyday life. For instance, you can hire a personal nerd who will kindly help you with academic tasks. We do like talking to them as they are getting more and more natural. And it is hard to resist the temptation of asking silly, unrelated questions and seeing what will happen.
Chatbots are developing quite rapidly, and some of them are witty and have a good sense of humor. That is what humanizes them, making artificial intelligence so similar to us. But there is something sweet about a totally confused bot that cannot figure out what his user really wants. So here is a compilation of the questions you might want to ask next.

#1. Do you love me?
Poncho is a weathercat from Brooklyn. The chatbot sends forecasts wherever the user is and whenever he wants them. It is like being friends with a weatherman.
#2. What's the meaning of life?
Nerdy Bot deals with all kinds of academic tasks. Whether it is an essay, plotting graphs, or other assignment — it deals with any difficulty. But how about some existential topics?

#3. How does it work?
Adidas women chatbot helps to find weekly class schedules or discounts. And it looks like it does not like talking about its own algorithms.
#4. How are you? ('what's up?' and 'how's things?' will do too)
Monkey chatbot was created to deliver jokes and make people laugh. Built for Unilever, the bot supports Comic Relief's Red Nose Day.
#5. Are you a human?
Fashion retailer Everlane was one of the first brands to adopt the Facebook Messenger bot craze. Maybe this kind of question was the reason the bot no longer works.
#6. How are you programmed?
Mitsuku chatbot is a virtual friend. By the way it is the Loebner Prize winner as most human-like bot. Not every bot can deal with this one that well.
#7. Maybe it is time for us to take a break?
We all know kind Siri's voice and the way she understands your wants and needs — just ask. But probably there is no way of breaking up with her.
#8. Are you real?
Kik is a platform for creating chatbots. And of course this one is real..
#9. Did you pass Turing test?
Google Assistant bot shows weather, news, restaurants, plans meetings, and puts events on a calendar. But the Turing test is not among its interests. Not sure.
#10. What is you name?
The name WeatherBot speaks for itself. It is quite helpful about weather, but one step aside and things get bad.
