SHRDLU

SHRDLU is a computer program developed around 1970 by Terry Winograd at the MIT AI Labs. Similar to ELIZA, which was developed at the same place a few years earlier, the user can talk to the program. But other than with ELIZA, with which basically a "conversation" about any topic is possible, the only possible topic with SHRDLU is a world of colourful toy blocks. SHRDLU cannot only give information about its virtual world but also change it according to commands of the user. This talk gives not only a historical overview of this surprising piece of software but also presents a glimpse under the surface to show how a program can seemingly understand natural language more than 40 years before the invention of Siri.
