Exploring the World of Thecnological Intelligence

Today in class we were assigned to try out Eliza, an online therapist. The only problem is she isn't very intelligent. Eliza isn't very human like because she doesn't follow conversation in a rational order. To make her seem more human I would program more responses because she kept repeating the same things as if she was only programmed to say a couple of responses. Although, I can admit, a computer is not really capable of having emotions, but, by adding sympathetic words into her program Eliza may seem to have more emotions. I can imagine that computers could become more human like. For example Siri on apple devices is more intelligent than Eliza. She is able to carry out commands, answer questions, and respond rationally to what you say. The technology is likely to become more and more advanced.
