Okay. So the meme-dropper, "Hugh J. Sloan III", can't spell.

However, I must stand up for MIT when it comes to the "genius."

The correct name is Kristinn Rúnar Thórisson. His PhD thesis, from 1996, is "Communicative humanoids: a computational model of psychosocial dialogue skills". You can find selected publications at his home page:

His thesis is at

Note that Pattie Maes served on his thesis committee.
