There was a wonderful section in Sherry Turkle's _Life on the Screen_
about "Julia", a jumped up Eliza engine who comes across as a vaguely
sarcastic woman. I'd have thought the effect would've lasted for about
five minutes, but this one poor guy tried for something like six weeks
to seduce her. Turkle comments that it's not at all clear whether Julia
passed the Turing test or this guy failed.
