just googled for ELIZA and came up with this:
http://www.lewismoten.com/LewiesElizaChatbot/default.htm
interesting, i didn't know it was used for therapy or pseudo-therapy!
now ELIZA is just used as a generic name for a "chatbot" ... it's a real classic and its modern-day variants i don't think are used for therapy. a classic artificial intelligence problem - how do you make a computer sound like a human?
there are tons and tons of implementations of ELIZA
and this board doesn't really remind me of a chatbot
because i'm on it
and the things i say just can't be predicted.
aren't i cool? just call me narcissus from now on ;-)
