      The Turing test was *never* a relevant goal for AI. We should remember that Turing never intended it as a literal test to be passed by a machine designed for that purpose, but as a philosophical device in an argument about the nature of thinking.https://www.fastcompany.com/90590042/turing-test-obsolete-ai-benchmark-amazon-alexa …

      The major flaw of the Turing test is that it entirely abdicates the responsibility of defining intelligence and how to evaluate it (the value of a test). Instead, it delegates the task to human judges, who themselves don't have a proper definition or a proper evaluation process.

          As a result, the Turing test does not at all provide incentives to develop greater intelligence, it solely encourages developers to figure out how to trick humans into believing a chatbot is intelligent.

          If you were trying to assess that a matter teleportation occured by asking an audience of witnesses about it, you'd be encouraging the development of prestidigitation tricks, not research in physics. This is the same. The Turing test encourages deception, not progress.

          Bots that "pass the Turing test" are to AI research what a David Copperfield show in Vegas is to physics research. (And yes, his shows do involve some amount of physics and engineering.)

          Worse than that: it is an incentive to create the most dishonest AI possible. IMO, a better way would be to train AIs with as *little* human data as possible and observe it in isolation to see whether it exhibits the signs of intelligence without trying to convince us.

          The funny thing is that we’re surrounded by creatures with general intelligence (or at least not far from us on whatever that spectrum would be) that can’t talk.

          When I see cognitive tests that we pass and a dog fails, I wonder what test an alien would set us that would we fail, that would lead it to class us as an ‘animal’ in the same way
