Текст: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Computers have become part of everyday life. Computer scientists are now working on the next generation of computers: one, which will have true intelligence. The first step on the way is the development of "expert systems". An "expert system" is partially intelligent. At Stanford University a computer has been developed for medical diagnosis. It stores 125 facts about each of 600 diseases. It can tell doctors which questions to ask, and which measurements to take. It can then analyze the result and make an accurate diagnosis. At the university of California they have been working on computers which can write stones, while IBM has developed the Epistle program for business letters which can correct spelling improve grammar and style and even check for mistakes. One of the most interesting programs has been developed at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and it is a kind of computer psychiatrist (a doctor of mental illness). The program, which was developed by Professor Joseph Weizenbaum, is called Eliza. It uses a technique known as "reflective listening". Eliza responds to what is typed with understanding, as if it were feeling pity and was trying to help but it never adds new information or gives an opinion. The computer seems to understand but in fact it does not understand a word that is being typed into it. Psychiatrists and teachers say that this technique helps people to talk about themselves, and talking about themselves helps them. Weeizenbaum decided to try this program on his secretary. She sat down at the keyboard and he was looking at the computer to make sure that everything was operating properly. After two or three interchanges with the machine she asked him to leave the room.
