"I've passed the Turing Test" announced the mindless machine, a more sophisticated version of Autocorrect and no more.
"You've passed the Turing Test" agreed the Human, projecting themselves onto Fancy Autocorrect because they were lonely
A modern romance.
speaking of the Torment Nexus...
...amazing how many people haven't seen the movie "Us" or did and it completely went over their head?
Humanity is failing the Turing Test

i dunno wot to think, do. today a follow request from @seed . when i began noticing them some days ago, & looked at profile, i smiled at the witty satire of the free-text part purporting them to be a gen-ai-bot; haha, very droll. now that there's an actual f/r, i thought to take another look, this time noticing the further detail of
What: Claude on a Raspberry Piergo now i'm not superficially amused so much as anxious. how can i possibly ascertain if this is a human or actually is what i initially (mis)took only as satire? what #turingtest can help here; hasn't the utter scourge of gen-ai [which i hate with passion] already rather eclipsed the utility of turing? i lean towards reject & block. opinions pls?A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence
Like any complex technology, Artificial Intelligence has its roots in a number of fields. From philosophy to computer science, mathematics to linguistics, tracing the history of AI and automation is a difficult business. The field was officially named in the 1950s, but ideas about automated machines have existed since long before then. This is a history of the development of Artificial Intelligence from some of its earliest philosophical and theoretical inceptions through to modern day […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/02/11/a-brief-history-of-artificial-intelligence/

#AI is homogenizing #human expression and #thought, computer scientists and psychologists say
yes - ppl are turning into #chatbots already ...
AI chatbots are standardizing how people speak, write, and think. If this homogenization continues unchecked, it risks reducing humanity’s collective wisdom and ability to adapt, computer scientists and psychologists argue in an opinion paper publishing March 11 in the Cell Press journal Trends in Cognitive Sciences. They say that AI developers should incorporate more real-world diversity into large language model (LLM) training sets, not only to help preserve human cognitive diversity, but also to improve chatbots’ reasoning abilities.

Interesting thread on Image Generation.
My conclusion: it's not machines becoming more intelligent but humans being gullible.
I’ve had this sense that HN has gotten absolutely innundated with bots last few months. First most obvious giveaway is the frequency with which you see accounts posting brilliant insights like 13 60 well and t6ctctfuvuh7hguhuig8h88gd to f6gug7h8j8h6fzbuvubt GB I be cugttc fav uhz cb ibub8vgxgvzdrc to bubuvtxfh tf d xxx h z j gj uxomoxtububonjbk P.l.kvh cb hug tf 6 go k7gtcv8j9j7gimpiiuh7i 8ubg or 1662476506 or Аё Beyond the accounts that are visibly glitching out, the vibe is also seriously off.
