So when is someone going to incorporate this in a future dystopian sci Fi?...
"The Turing test never works because the cyons speak, think and act just like us... But the hands, son... The hands are always... off. No one knows why, but it's from the earliest days, even before they learned how to manufacture the cyons in our image. Those damn generative AIs were never able to get them right, even when they were just pictures and they probably never will. No one knows why, but we don't need to know the why. It's still the only way we can tell them apart, son. Check the hands. The hands."
- Raicuparta 4y agoThis is a thing in the original Westworld movie (1973). They couldn't get the hands right.
- passwordoops 4y agoNow THAT is interesting. I guess it could also be folded into the plot of we go Terminator and incorporate time travel. "We went back and tried to warn them even before computers were widespread... All they did was remake the media and left out the clues"
- ethbr0 4y agoMy take was that was always essence of the "dogs smell Terminators" plot element. Skynet could make Terminators that looked and acted human, but didn't put the effort into making them smell human. Unlike us, a dog's sensory world is more like 50% smell and 20% vision. Ergo, Terminators seem "obviously wrong" under even a cursory examination to them.
- estebank 4y agoNow that's an interesting thought: terminators were in the "smell uncanny valley" for dogs. It makes sense, I just hadn't thought of it in those specific terms.

- zitterbewegung 4y agoI am using generative AI to make a video game and actually I have to look at every output to see if the hands were generated correctly. Gwern mentions this too. Hands + body would be an actual breakthrough.
