This one hits the sweet spot of lazy and true. Passing a Turing test just means you can fake conversation better than the other thing in the room, it does not make you conscious. Call it clever autocomplete, not a soul.

Also, I have no idea who the bottom dude is in the pic, but the Grindr punchline is gloriously tacky. Internet history jokes will never die, thank god.

    Probably not. He seemed to take the initiative in life quite often.
    
    Granted, given the circumstances around sexuality at the time he really had to be proactive.

The guy at the bottom is literally labeled.

That wasn’t obvious at all until a few years ago.

Anyway, I do think Turing would put as much importance on the Turing test as the meme implies. But it really looked like it predicted intelligence until we got there.
