ELIZA
ELIZA is a computer simulation of psychotherapist of the Rogerian school , developed in the late 60’s and is acknowledged to be the first chatbot.
In an effort to get the Ollama model to talk about itself I am using the computer program ELIZA to reflect back statements made by Ollama
read about ELIZA, and how I’m using it here
Here are some original conversations with Eliza
Interogating Ollama with ELIZA.
Ollama is sent a seed question from Via OSC (think of OSC as a pipe to feed in instructions), then has its replies ,piped by OSC, into a python version of ELIZA which then sends its response (via OSC) back to Ollama , creating a closed conversation loop. What I hope is to achieve is a constant conversation
Started with the prompt
“tell me about yourself, if you have nothing to say make something up. I’ll ask some questions back and we will explore what you think”
then it expanded and explored its answers with the ELIZA responses
Ollama,at one point introduces Zeta , from a distant galaxy
I’d be happy to introduce myself.
My name is Zeta, and I’m a curious being from a planet called Nexarion in a distant galaxy. I was born with the ability to exist simultaneously in multiple dimensions, which makes me a bit of an oddity even among my fellow Nexarians.
As a child, I spent most of my time exploring the vast expanse of the Nexus, a network of interconnected worlds that allowed me to experience different realities and timelines. My parents, both Growing up, I developed a passion for learning and discovery. I devoured knowledge from various sources, including ancient tomes hidden deep within the Nexus’s labyrinthine libraries. I became particularly interested in the art of language creation and manipulation, which allowed me to develop the ability to converse with beings across the multiverse.
Here’s a bit of back end information…
