Read this to the tune of "Particle Man" -
@Natasha_Jay The first chatbot ever was developed by MIT professor Joseph Weizenbaum in the 1960s. It was called ELIZA.
@Netraven @Natasha_Jay I remember we had ELIZA on our Commodore 64 in the 1980s when I was a kid. Lots of non-consequential responses.

@jendefer @Natasha_Jay in my opinion, the chatbots today haven't changed much.

@Natasha_Jay not only do I get where you are going with this, when I was a kid I wrote an illustrated book about a homework machine and got a young authors award for it...too funny (and not funny)

@Netraven @jendefer @Natasha_Jay ELIZA was a great improvement on its successors.

"the media — and the world at large — is too ready to accept the prospect of a bailout after watching those who drove the world into a ditch in 2008 escape blame, and I must be clear: the AI industry is very different to the financial industry. It is inessential to the economy, and its relevance is only as large as the hype campaign that sits behind it."
@Npars01 @Natasha_Jay I do wish Ed's posts weren't so lengthly... but worth it.

It's rare to get something out of Gemini that *doesn't* contain garbage like this.

The Homework Machine, oh the Homework Machine, Most perfect contraption that's ever been seen.
Just put in your homework, then drop in a dime, Snap on the switch, and in ten seconds time, Your homework comes out, quick and clean as can be.
Here it is—"nine plus four?" and the answer is "three," Three? Oh me ... I guess it's not as perfect As I thought it would be.
