Then it just passed the turning test. Wild, right?

  Tiring test requires interactivity. Otherwise you could just run “cat moby_dick.txt”, and paste the output.

    Turring test also requires adversarial set up - you are talking to two entities, you know one is human and one is a computer, and you ask questions until you feel satisfied you know which is which. Preferably also the questioner is sufficiently motivated. Its a lot harder when you do a side by side comparison and you know at least 1 thing is a computer.

      You could also argue the Tearing test was a nice initial thought-experiment that should be re-evaluated given the context that GPT-3 presents today.

        I wouldn't say so. If you read turring's actual paper, its trying to find a line in the sand where you can't help but admit a computer is intelligence. Its not meant as the defining test, so much as upper bound on the hardest test neccessary. His arguments ring true today just as much as they did at the time, although i think his arguments are mildly misrepresented in today's popular tech culture.
