During 1960s MIT created a chatbot called Eliza. In 1977 a super chess computer from IBM called Deep Blue defeated Chess Champion Garry Kasparov. In 2011 IBM introduced Watson, that beat humans in Jeopardy!
Sure robots are really smart, but can a human fall in love with a robot? In 2013, the movie Her, was released. The movie was about a man falling in love with a software. Although it seems impossible, researchers say it is possible for a person to fall in love with a computer. Softwares and programs created by people can reply with more "interesting" replies to questions or statements that are asked to them. In a movie called Transcendence, a scientist was killed from a poison bullet. His wife tried to keep him alive by using his consciousness and putting it in a robot. She couldn't realize that the robot might not be him but nothing more than a robot. Studies have shown that computers can coax people into being more polite. I think it is because machines are perfect, have no mistakes, and cannot become angry. It's easy to fall in love with someone if they always agree with you and are an angel to you all the time. Even though this is possible, I think it is a ridiculous idea to fall in love with a robot.
