Nice try bot, whatever it is you were trying to do

It's more likely to be a human testing something than a bot. TBF, this comment and the replies were more interesting than any of the on topic comments or the article itself.
You have to at least give credit that the bot was apparently written in lisp.
Scheme, actually, since it uses "define" instead of "defun." I formatted it reasonably, but it still looked like a pain to untangle.
The original Lisp also used DEFINE. See the LISP 1 Programmer's Manual, Mac Carthy et al. 1960, P. 23.
Scheme is a lisp.
