PARRY
PARRY beat an extended Turing test by simulating a paranoid subject via a natural language parser and an interpretation-action module tracking a range of emotional states and applying paranoia-specific strategies to deal with shame-induced distress.
PARRY was tested against control subjects suffering from clinicial paranoia, and transcripts were judged by professional clinical psychologists.
