I've had a profound realization playing with #GPT3.
The vast majority of people are basically running #GPT3. They speak, they utter sentences, but they mostly copy what other people say & have very little critical thinking. But they're good at babbling.
Most people are NPCs.

The analogous problem in nature is talking to other humans. If a computer is sufficiently good at imitating humans, it will pass the harder versions of the Turing test.

The test doesn't come from evolution but from imaginative hypothesis. While our intelligence may have been furnished with its unique tools by an evolutionary process, the imagination is not bound by biological necessity, but only by the pure concepts of the understanding.

That one is actually pretty easy. (this ties in to the original topic - it's easy because we have social modules for dealing with women and with men and we notice the misfire if you apply the wrong one - for that, there is an evolved solution that works in favor of it)
