On a tangential note: it would be cute for LW to acquire a collection of resident chat bots, preferably ones which could be dissected and rewired by all and sundry. Erecting defences against chat bots run amok would also be enlightening :-)
Cute, but I think probably a really terrible idea.
The collection would come with a per-user flag which, when set to "Go Away", will make the existence of chatbots and all their doings entirely invisible to the user. Or you can sandbox the chatbots in a subreddit of their own.
LW needs some fun and games -- chatbots would provide a good playground.
Maybe if it was a particularly philosophical one.
