In 1950, Alan Turing asked, “Can machines think?” He suggested the Imitation Game as a test to evaluate whether a machine can think, more commonly called the “Turing Test.” Today we ask, is the Turing Test outdated? Joining Slingtalks this week are Kristian Freed & Guilherme Freire, founding engineers at Slingshot. Guilherme argues against the Turing Test, Kristian argues in favor.
Key topics they discuss include:
- A recent paper claims that GPT-4 comes close to passing the Turing Test. Is the paper’s result valid? How close are we to passing the Turing Test?
- Defining the Turing Test and understanding the various iterations on its original framing since 1950. Are there levels in passing the Turing Test?
- Who is the Turing Test’s interrogator? And who is the human participant?
- If AI could pass the Turing Test, would that necessarily mean that most remote employees would be redundant?
- Is an AI’s ability to emulate human-like intelligence and deceive humans sufficient for intelligence? Is it necessary?
- What are the moral and philosophical implications of AI passing the Turing Test? Is intelligence morally significant? Is consciousness relevant?
