Welcome to the eliza archaeology project This research project brings together an interdisciplinary team of scholars, artists, and programmers to explore the history and ideas around the eliza chatbot It demonstrated that computers could engage in simulated conversations, paving the way for more complex conversational agents like modern chatbots and voice assistants (e.g., siri, alexa, chatgpt).
