As for how that does it; while I don't know the specific method, I'm pretty sure it's based on statistical analysis of word frequency in a sample text, and then generating new text that follows the same patterns. Markov chains are a fairly simple-to-understand example, if you want to look into this more, though I don't think it's the exact variety used by that bot.
