Most twitter bots use Markov chains
@scuzzlebot uses them... by the fact that he is an implementation of MegaHAL (http://megahal.alioth.debian.org/).

He's out of order right now. I plan to fix him when I've got time. For a while he ended up tweeting tons of nonsense with no spaces between words... my fault. Anyway I will fix him up again soon, but hope to (in my copious free time HAHAHAHAH) redo him in a more exciting way.

He has OFTEN been awkward and offensive. I do not censor him nor feel any obligation to do so.
