Weizenbaum intended to use ELIZA to study human interpretation, but it became overly focused on the DOCTOR script, opposing his original goal.
Instead of being a tool for AI interpretation, ELIZA transformed into a standalone phenomenon, overshadowing its intended academic purpose and insights.
Weizenbaum's concerns mirrored the shift from versatile programming to a Lisp-centric approach in AI, leading to a loss of broader programming diversity.
Turing's foresight hinted at the complexities of machine intelligence, suggesting that the discourse on whether machines can think would become futile.
