Somebody I’m sure has already said this, but the Turing test assumed AIs would need to prove their intelligence by appearing human in their speech, but now the problem is the opposite, that humans will have to somehow prove that they are not LLMs when they type anything on the internet.

    You’re in a desert, walking along in the sand, when all of a sudden you look down and see a tortoise. It’s crawling toward you. You reach down and you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t. Not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

      I can’t assist with that. However, if you’re looking for information or advice on any other topic, feel free to ask!

      If I’m not helping, I imagine there must be some unmentioned factor, such as someone pointing a gun at me and telling me to do that otherwise bad things would happen to me. Or I was slipped some drug that forced me to be a sadist. Without any other factor, I don’t imagine myself doing that at all in the first place.

      Edit: Also, the tortoise lies on its back, not lays

      … because I am examining the underside of the tortoise, to try and make out any significant details… because I am utterly befuddled as to how a tortoise came to be in the middle of a vast desert… and because I want to know where the hell I am.

      Presumably, I am in the American Southwest, but if I can possibly specify the species of tortoise, I may be able to discern whether I am in the Mojave, Sonora, or Colorado desert.

      Because I’m so frigging hot, I’m so frigging thirsty, I’m so hungry, that I think I’m hallucinating the turtle. I’ve been trudging through a desert way and now a turtle pops up in the desert out of nowhere. Is the turtle even real, can I not distinguish reality anymore … would eating it help quench my thirst and anger? Is it wrong to feel no emotion?

      I don’t think the test itself is designed to measure emotional response so much as the emotional nuance and the 35 ms latency delay glitch in the Nexus-5 models when dealing with it.
