My friends and I had a very simple version of this up and running perhaps fifteen years ago, where we fed-and-scraped Cleverbot[0] and had a second bot posting its replies in our chat. Obviously it was drastically inferior to state-of-the-art LLMs, but it was still amusing. It would only 'speak' when addressed by name, so we weren't flooding Cleverbot with input. Of course, it only ever had one line of context at a time. [0] https://www.cleverbot.com/ https://www.cleverbot.com/
