Comment on AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output

  As a computer science experiment, making a program that can beat the Turing test is a monumental step in progress.

  However as a productive tool it is useless in practically everything it is implemented on. It is incapable of performing the very basic “Sanity check” that is important in programming.

    The Turing test says more about the side administering the test than the side trying to pass it

    Just because something can mimic text sufficiently enough to trick someone else doesn’t mean it is capable of anything more than that

      We can argue about it’s nuances. same with the Chinese room thought experiment.

      However, we can’t deny that it the Turing test, is no longer a thought exercise but a real test that can be passed under parameters most people would consider fair.

      I thought a computer passing the Turing test would have more fanfare, about the morality if that problem, because the usual conclusion of that thought experiment was “if you cant tell the difference, is there one?”, but now it has become “Shove it everywhere!!!”.

        Oh, I just realized that the whole ai bubble is just the whole “everything is a dildo if you are brave enough.”

    The Turing test becomes absolutely useless when the product is developed with the goal of beating the Turing test.

      it was also meant as a philosophical test, but also, a practical one, because now. I have absolutely no way to know if you are a human or not.

      But it did pass it, and it raised the bar. but they are still useless at any generative task

    The Turing test has shown its weakness.

      Time for a Turing 2.0?

      If you spend a lifetime with a bot wife and were unable to tell that she was AI, is there a difference?
