 in recognizing and synthetizing speech, they often fail to meet 

expectations of having a real dialogue with humans. Indeed, they 

essentially try to provide a more or less adequate imitation of how 

humans converse, bringing the interlocutor into stereotyped 

conversations, but without developing real understanding of language or
