My understanding was that ELIZA wasn't even designed to fool people (or be intelligent) but more to model "cocktail party conversation" (or, as some interpret it, o Rogerian psychotherapist).
Exactly so! Eliza, 1965: Zero understanding of topics it discussed, occasional ability to fool people GPT, 2019: Zero understanding of topics it discussed, occasional ability to fool people.https://twitter.com/Grady_Booch/status/1194065632481792000 …

I think perhaps a good parallel would be GPT is to NLP what GAN is to computer vision. You wouldn't say a GAN "understands" what it generates :)
