invisiblegirlfriend.com and invisibleboyfriend.com are not self aware computers. But they include computers pretending to be human.
There are a few humans that beat all other humans at chess. There are a few machines that beat those humans. Those machines and all the humans are beat by human / computer teams, where a computer does what it does best (run through many options) and so do humans (make the final choice on machine suggested moves). The above services seem like this - a human / computer team designed to play a (social) game well.
I'd place this in the arena of immediate and real world friendly AI research.
I have no affiliation with these commercial services.
