> If you train something on a large enough corpus, it'll pass the Turing Test easily enough. I doubt it. AFAIK, in the longer run, these models don’t show to have a coherent memory. Repeatedly ask it “how old are you?”, “in what year were you born?”, “what was your mother’s maiden name?”, “what day is it?”, “where are we?” or repeatedly interrogate it on what it did a while ago (“how did you go to the museum?”, “who did you meet there?”, “can you remember the names of a few classmates?”), and holes will appear. I guess questions such as “tell me how you killed JFK” also can get revealing answers (certainly if they earlier claimed to be born somewhere after 1963) The corpus also can be too big. Your typical language model knows too much. No human is a homo universalis anymore, certainly not if we require it to include details about pop culture around the world.
