This is definitely an impressive result, but I'm pretty sure it was made easier by the opposite pattern.
I've had a couple of TAs who I strongly suspected of being chatbots, even when I was talking to them in person. I'm still not 100% convinced they were human.
- SilasX 11y agoYep, and it's not like you want to make such an accusation when you're in that position. In fact, that's one way to pass the Turing test: any judge that suggests a subject is bot, experiences a permanent loss of social status regardless of correctness!
- tfm 11y agoMore human than human is our motto ... Next step will be to replace the prof, and then have the students replaced by surprisingly attentive interrogative expert systems, and the cycle will be complete.
- itgoon 11y agoReminds me of a scene in the movie "Real Genius". The class was empty of people, was just tape recorders listening to another tape recorder set up by the professor.
- HillaryBriss 11y agoAbsolutely. And, once that's set up, our banking sector and government should profit from hefty educational loans made to all those student bots.
- qb45 11y agoYeah, there exist humans who fail the Turing test. Another thing is foreign students and teachers who, even if otherwise competent, quickly get one used to language comparable with machine output. I think I may have been guilty of that at one time :)
- Kinnard 11y agoYou know this is very interesting. I've often wondered if other humans I'm interacting with were in fact sapient.
