Emotional chatting machine assesses your emotion and copies it

Chatbots have a long and venerable history dating back to the 1960s and the famous Eliza bot that fooled some people into thinking they were chatting with a real human. Since then, computer programs capable of conducting conversations have become progressively more advanced with greater ability to understand content and respond appropriately. And yet the ability to reproduce human speech convincingly still eludes chatbots. Talk to one for any length of time and it soon becomes clear that it is a machine. One reason is that computers are unable to gauge the emotional content of conversations and empathize accordingly.
