Summary: Tomorrow: Build Eliza, the original chatbot from 1964! : Global Nerdy

The Tampa Bay Artificial Intelligence Meetup is gathering tomorrow at Computer Coach, where we’ll build Eliza, the original chatbot!

In the meetup, I’ll provide a “starter” project, and you’d code along with me until you had a working Eliza version that you could tweak into your own chatbot.

There’s no way we could code ChatGPT in a single meetup, but we will build a complete working version of ELIZA tomorrow at the Tampa Bay Artificial Intelligence Meetup!
