@20002ist @wendynather Hahaha, yeah, I used to run a version of Eliza on my Amiga 1000 in the mid-1980s. As the Amiga came with a speech synthesis library, you could activate Eliza's "voice" as well, which made her even more "human".

It didn't take long to realize "she" didn't "understand" anything, but kept asking questions surrounding the subject of your input. I guess many people desperately want to believe certain things, otherwise religion and superstition wouldn't be so wide-spread.
