A quote: "Robert Epstein, a Harvard psychologist who co-edited a book on artificial intelligence, fell for bots imitating live women on dating sites not once, but twice." Of course it had to be a psychologist, a person one expects to be trained and skilled in the devious workings of the human mind, to be taken in by simulacra ... twice. I await the day when two simulacra contact each other, neither aware of the other's true identity, trade phony reminiscences, then arrange a tryst. Even the brilliant Alan Turing (of "Turing Test" fame) didn't anticipate this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test
