Book Talk: Inventing ELIZA: How the First Chatbot Shaped the Future of AI
How the original ELIZA chatbot transformed ideas about Al and society's response to them. As we reach the 60th anniversary of ELIZA's public debut, Inventing ELIZA offers the first comprehensive critical analysis of Joseph Weizenbaum’s groundbreaking chatbot system through the lens of critical code studies.
In this talk David M. Berry presents the book and the main arguments for discussions with respondents, Michael Jonik (MAH) and Moinul Zaber (IDS). Chair: Tanya Kant
Talk will be followed by drinks and refreshments.
Everyone welcome.
This seminar is a collaboration between Sussex Digital Humanities Lab and SussexAI.
