Side question: is it known how close these ports are to the original? As far as I can find, the rule mechanism the original ELIZA used is well documented, and some example transcripts are published. But nowhere can I find documentation of the specific rules implemented by the original ELIZA in that rule mechanism, to produce those example transcripts. Where did the rules in the many latter-day ports come from? Are some of them based directly on the original code lineage, before it disappeared? Or is it actually still available somewhere, and I just can't find it? Or did they invent their own rules in the spirit of the original, aiming to reproduce its behavior but not via a direct port?
- masswerk 13y agoI think some ports claim to be based on the original port to Lisp. I've never seen any of the original SLIP code or data. The rules seem to be authentic, since they are producing Weizenbaum's sample conversation.
