Скончался Joseph Weizenbaum
IT pioneer Joseph Weizenbaum dies
MUNICH, Germany — Computer pioneer and philosopher Joseph Weizenbaum (85) has died in Berlin. The scientist and MIT professor emeritus was known for his critical position towards the impact of information technology to society.
One of his most influential works was the development of the natural language processor ELIZA which is said to be one of the early breakthroughs for Artificial Intelligence. In this context, he developed a program simulating a conversation between a physician and a patient.
Если я не ошибаюсь, ELIZA имеет какое-то отношение к Emacs psychotherapist?
Via.
