PARRYĦ years later, psychiatrist Kenneth Colby released PARRY. ELIZA got users to trust her enough to even confide some of their deep thoughts in her. But she did manage to do something unexpected. She didn’t manage to pass the Turing Test. She managed this by passing the words entered by users through a program and pairing them with scripted responses. ELIZA chatbot assumed the persona of a psychotherapist. It is due to this test that we can chronicle the history of chatbots.įast-forward to 1966 and we see Joseph Weizenbaum at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and his creation- ELIZA. This one challenge has been the reason behind the development of thousands of chatbots. They would try to determine which of the participants is the human and which is the program. Turing challenged scientists to create a program that would be indistinguishable from a human in a Natural Language conversation.Ī panel of human judges would converse anonymously, in text form, with a computer program and also with a human operating a computer. Alan Turing, who during World War II was one of the most prominent breakers of German code, issued an open challenge to the computer scientists of the world. Here’s your very own guide to the history of chatbots. Starting with ELIZA in the 1960s to Alexa and beyond. But towards the latter half of the 20th Century, this dream started becoming a reality. Throughout modern history, we’ve been obsessed with interacting with robots and artificial intelligence.
