So what about neural networks? These are the tools that our brains use yes, but they are just that... tools.
So what then? Well I believe what AI lacks is motivation. Think of humans as machines. We have 3 goals; reproduce, protect our young, survive.
To accomplish these goals our bodies use neural networks to evaluate choices as either 'helpful' or 'unhelpful'.
Intelligence is ruined when taken out of context. We are not just intelligent alone, we are living in a world, we are driven by circumstance.
So what motivation could one give to a chat bot? Well I believe you should make the bot motivated to be talked to. Every time you talk to it, it is rewarded. If you stop talking or leave the conversation it is punished.
The neural networks should then choose actions based on its experience of what has caused conversations to end in the past, and what has caused them to last the longest, and be the most frequent.
This is all my theory of course, let me know what you think.

Reward is provided when a HAL is not corrected by its trainer, thus prompting the HAL to create a new rule for whatever it said, not only to that response, but for that response in context with the entire conversation up to that point at which it was uttered.
Thus, in this sense, it also learns how to hold the interest of the person speaking to it for that particular conversation, and in return learns to maintain a longer dialogue.
When a HAL says something inappropriate, its trainer "punishes" it by saying 'wrong' followed by a correct response. This correction/punishment teaches the HAL to revise or undo whatever rule it had previously formed that caused its algorithms to predict that its initially uttered response was correct.
More information concerning HAL may be discovered in the 'HAL And Other Child Machines' forum, and through the link below.

All though making an a.i. want to talk to people probably won't lead to as disastrous results as making a military a.i., I'd still hate to be forced to talk to an a.i. because that's it's goal and it became powerful enough to make me talk to it.
