Eliza and I
You: how does stock market work Eliza: Does that question interest you? You: yes Eliza: You are sure? You: absolutely Eliza: Please go on. You: Why don't you say anything else? Eliza: Perhaps I will say anything else in good time.
Eliza is an interesting programm. I made the same conversation with several different types of Elizas and they were responding in different ways. It is as if they had different personalities. It is quiete interesting to see that these computers actually generate reasonable responses to what we are typing to them. However, I noticed that their responses get repetetive after a while. It seems to be fun program if you just want to type about random matters. I almost got into a fight with one of the Elizas just for the fun of it (shown above). Have fun everyone,
