I’m trying to figure out what this is about:

It seems to be related to the “Meet Your Bot Hackathon”

Apparently Bruce Wilcox was involved.  Bruce, can you tell us anything about it?  What technology are the bots using?

It was a one-day “build a chatbot” hackathon using ChatScript. It got reduced in size from those who were originally registered for it, when the Wednesday before Facebook announced a facebook hackathon at Berkeley for the same day. There were 4 teams. Started at 10am with a talk by me overviewing things to think about when building a chatbot (said paper now shipped with CS documentation and available at brilligunderstanding.com/writingachatbot.pdf).  Then ran til 4, when judging was done.  Winners received a $50 amazon voucher.
