Turing test - passing grade?
10/04/25 10:26
Got an email from Futurepedia today stating that GPT 4.5 just passed the Turing test… So, naturally, I asked ChatGPT 4.5 if it could do so. Long story short, here's the summary it provided "Bottom line: ChatGPT-4.5 can convincingly pass the Turing test in many situations, but subtle cracks appear under deeper scrutiny."
BTW, this answer is more self aware than most people I know… makes me wonder if most people could pass the Turing test? So I asked that question too. (The AI was kind enough to tell me that "that's a surprisingly insightful question" which made me blush… but I digress.) Again, the summary - "So yes, most people comfortably pass the Turing test, but it’s a fascinating reminder that “human-like” isn’t always the same as “human,” and that even humans can sometimes sound a little robotic. Interesting thought, isn’t it?"
And yes, as a human, I DO find that an interesting thought!
