Early classic chatterbots include ELIZA (1966), named for Eliza Doolittle in Pygmalion and My Fair Lady, and PARRY (1972), based on paranoid schizophrenic behavior.In 1950, Alan Turing proposed the Turing test intelligence criteria set, which depends on undetectable program simulation of human user behavior and activity.Meanwhile, somewhere in California, psychiatrist Kenneth Colby of Stanford University is programming the final touches of an “artificial intelligence” computer program, designed to simulate as accurately as possible the thinking patterns of a paranoid schizophrenic.It’s name: To understand a respected psychologist would feel inclined to write such a program we must first travel back to 1964.“Once I start talking I don’t know when to stop, and people lose interest, and I don’t know why,” one person told Hoque. “The fact that a computer is doing it is useful.” The team’s paper states that led to a significant improvement in social interaction, based on a before-and-after evaluation of subjects by a professional career counsellor.People asked for a tool with which they could practice human interaction privately—insulated from the insecurities created in social situations. Beyond job interviews, Hoque said, the program could be useful for helping people with social phobia linked to autism—the root of the project, which he hopes to pursue further—as well as public speaking, or even dating.The Turing test generated high interest in the ELIZA program, which makes people believe they are chatting with human beings.
The idea sprung from a workshop held by the Asperger’s Association of New England, where Hoque and fellow researchers were approached by people seeking a technological solution to their social hardships. Just relax and be yourself.” The college kid, in a gray engineering T-shirt, looked back at the screen with an accepting frown and nodded, “O. He hunched over slightly, and thought aloud, “I don’t know.”Mary prodded, “Hi. I can’t find you.” He waved his hands at the screen. “When there’s a person there, it’s very intimidating,” he said.
:) HOW IT WORKS: First, the text is broken into letters in a list and the punctuation and spaces are deleted.
It also looks for question marks to see if it is a question. This means I can use the "list contains" thing to check to see if an answer contains a word.
