ELIZA is an early AI chatbot developed by Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT in 1966. It was designed to mimic human conversation patterns using simple pattern-matching techniques without actual language comprehension. ELIZA operated by analyzing input patterns and recognizing key phrases to generate pre-defined responses based on scripted rules. Its most famous mode, "DOCTOR, " mimicked a Rogerian psychotherapist by rephrasing statements or asking open-ended questions, giving the impression of meaningful conversation. Though simplistic by today’s standards, ELIZA demonstrated how computers could engage in seemingly intelligent interactions, influencing the development of AI and chatbot technology.

I was a kid when I first used Eliza, she closed the application herself as she was angry on me due to our conversation. What was that then ?
