Enjoy a rousing conversation with your Mac. Eliza will play the part of a
psychologist, conducting an open-ended clinical interview. As the patient,
you can get Eliza's opinions and advice on a wide range of subjects. Eliza
has a large vocabulary and the ability to formulate a virtually unlimited
number of responses.
...and if you have Apple's Speech Manager (PlainTalk), you can actually watch
and listen as Eliza responds, making this an excellent demonstration of the
Speech Manager's capabilities!
Version 6.0 allows you to choose the gender of your therapist (male or female
"talking head"). I say "Eliza" sounds like a male name, however the rest of
the English-speaking world disagrees. You decide.
Also, this version features several significant improvements in the response
algorithms.
Eliza can function as a bare bones text editor. (For a full-featured text
editor, try my program Tex-Edit Plus!)
Please notify me (TomBB) if you find any bugs or have suggestions for
improvements. Eliza is ShareWare. The registration fee is $5.
The source code is available to registered users. (See the enclosed
documentation or the 'About...' dialog box.)
