So how do you want to do this?ĮLIZA: You're not really talking about me, are you? ME: When I've got a fine-ass chatbot talking dirty to me, I doĮLIZA: Are such questions on your mind often? Mine are already off and I'm super hardĮLIZA: Do you believe it is normal to be super hard? ME: Ok, I'll take off my pants and then you take off yours As you can see, we didn't get very far.ĮLIZA: Hello. Here's a quick transcript of my failed attempt at sexting ELIZA.

Of course, the ELIZA I was trying to bone was one of many clones, and it's hard to say how close to the original it really comes, but after testing a few different versions, the results were equal parts frustrating and hilarious. Given her history, ELIZA would be by far the most important thing I'd ever had sex with. In my flings with ELIZA and a host of her offspring I learned that talking dirty to chatbots provides an often comical, sometimes depressing view into the past, present and future of sex and artificial intelligence. So as humans do, we've found a way to turn them into receptacles for our basest desires. With big names like Google in the game, we're getting ever closer to human-like AI.Ĭhatbots hold an important place in the evolution of Artificial Intelligence. Meanwhile, Google has developed its own proof-of-concept chatbot to show off the power of neural networks, which mimic the human brain. While more sophisticated methods of machine learning are in development, many of today's chatbots are still built on a similar coded call-and-response formula as ELIZA. Each year, AI enthusiasts compete for the Loebner prize, which pits chatbot against chatbot to see who or what can come closest to passing that test. They are still seen as a benchmark in artificial intelligence and a common vessel for administering the Turing Test, which, boiled down, seeks to find an AI that can fool people into believing it's human.

Nearly 50 years later, thousands - maybe millions - of chatbots populate the internet. You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu.
