The Lenny algorithm is quite simple: wait for silence, play the next recording. That's it.

The recordings are always played in the same sequence. There's no speech recognition involved.

The cleverness, of course, is that Lenny's script (and vocal delivery) seems brilliantly designed to keep telemarketers and scammers going on and on and on...
