Fascinating article on the creator of ELIZA (which it turns out is pretty much the least interesting thing he did) and the limitations, and the cult, of AI.
"Living well with computers would mean putting them in their proper place: as aides to calculation, never judgment."
@joningold I liked that article, especially the conclusion:
"It is a future in which we form a relationship with AI as we would with another species: awkwardly, across great distances, but with the potential for some rewarding moments. Dolphins would make bad judges and terrible shrinks. But they might make for interesting friends."
