Okay I just asked Siri to tell me a story then after she did I asked her who Eliza was. She told me was her former good friend, psychiatrist and is now retired. So who is Eliza? Google doesn't tell me much.
-iPhone 4s Siri
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1
Eliza was one of the first AI programs that "understood" language. It pretended to be a psychologist and would parrot things back with little understanding of what was actually said.
IIRC, I ran ELIZA on a TRS-80. 8^)
Some back in the day took pride into double-talking Eliza into such responses as "At kendrated the yutzer at your first rickshaw?".
Who is Eliza?
