Which is why the Turing Test needs to be updated. These text models are getting really good at fooling people.

    The Turing test isn't just that there exists some conversation you can have with a machine where you wouldn't know it's a machine. The Turing test is that you could spend an arbitrary amount of time talking to a machine and never be able to tell. ChatGPT doesn't come anywhere close to this, since there are many subjects where it quickly becomes clear that the model doesn't understand the meaning of the text it generates.

    Exactly thank you for pointing this out. It also assumes that the tester would have knowledge of the wider context in which the test exists. GPT could probably fool someone from the middle ages, but that person wouldn't know anything about what it is they are testing for exactly.
