PDF of the second edition of Information Processing Language V Manual (1964).
This GitHub repository contains a re-implementation of the IPL-V programming language and the Logic Theorist (LT) program. It includes the original code transcribed into a TSV format and converted to Lisp, along with documentation and debugging tools.
The Wikipedia article details the Logic Theorist, created in 1956 by Allen Newell, Herbert A. Simon, and Cliff Shaw. Widely considered the first AI program, it successfully proved 38 of the first 52 theorems in Principia Mathematica, even discovering more elegant proofs than those originally crafted by Russell and Whitehead.
Jeff Shrager has reanimated LT in IPL-V with a new implementation.
There are references to the IBM 7090/7094 version under IBSYS online.
In this 7094 emulator package on Github: https://github.com/Bertoid1311/B7094 (in the zipped distribution files unfortunately) I think there is a copy that is runnable? see: Docs/Bamberger-MAMOS_docs/BAMBSYSLB1_patch_for_IPLV.txt
It describes patching the available binary to make it work, with the caveat that it's unclear if the interpreter is correct/intact (but it does run the demo programs).

Researchers discovered long-lost computer code and used it to resurrect the early chatbot ELIZA from MIT. Named after Eliza Doolittle from 'Pygmalion,' ELIZA was developed in the 1960s by MIT professor Joseph Weizenbaum. It was designed to emulate a psychotherapist in conversation and used a unique programming language called MAD-SLIP. Rediscovered in 2021, the original code was brought back to life after 60 years, demonstrating the chatbot's functionality and highlighting the historical significance of early artificial intelligence.
The ELIZA chatbot, created in the 1960s by Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT, has been painstakingly reconstructed from archived records and run for the first time in over half a century. This effort marks a significant step in preserving one of the earliest examples of artificial intelligence. Despite its rudimentary nature compared to modern AI, ELIZA's resurrection highlights its historical importance.
The original 1965 chatbot restored on the world's first time-sharing system, ELIZA, created by Joseph Weizenbaum at MIT in 1964-6, is running again on a reconstructed version of MIT's CTSS, running on an emulated IBM 7094.
This blog post explores applying the original ELIZA chatbot, a pioneering natural language processing program, in a way similar to modern large language models (LLMs) by using it to carry on an educational conversation about George Orwell's 'Animal Farm'.
An interdisciplinary research project exploring the history and ideas behind the influential ELIZA chatbot, created in the 1960s. The project aims to contextualize ELIZA, analyze its code, and examine its cultural impact on human-computer interaction.
