Siri, Alexa, Echo, Cortana... We may be living through an AI revolution, but male digital assistants have always been few and far between. Sarah Dillon meets one of the very first language-processing computer programmes, Eliza - named after George Bernard Shaw's Eliza Doolittle.
'Just you wait' from Frederick Loewe's score for My Fair Lady is performed by Julie Andrews.
