it goes all the way back to 1966 when Dr. Joseph Weizenbaum of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology created a program called “Eliza”. He found that a simple program like Eliza could fool some of his students by becoming “attached” to the computer. They would in some cases become very close “friends” with the computer. They never could tell they were talking to a computer.
