Reverse Turing Test: AI NPCs try to figure out who, among them, is the human
Aristotle is GPT4
Mozart is Claude 3 Opus
Da Vinci is Llama 3
Cleopatra is Gemini Pro
The funniest part?
3 of the 4 models guessed correctly… because the human’s response was too dumb 😂😂😂
For some context: Alan Turing was one of humanity’s biggest geniuses and his work was foundational to computing and arguably made possible the exponential technological progress humanity has enjoyed this century.
The Turing Test (originally called the imitation game by Alan Turing in 1950) is a test of a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human.
Such was the importance of Alan Turing’s contributions to the field, that the scientific community established The Turing Awards which is generally recognized as the highest distinction in the field of computer science and is often referred to as the “Nobel Prize of Computing”.
Alan Turing was famously horrified with the inexorable arrival of misaligned Artificial Intelligent Machines. His position was that it is inevitable that sooner or later, machines will take control, overpower humanity and our species will be irrelevant, helpless and at risk of deletion.
The DeTuring Test
I guess “The Reverse Turing Test” should be added to the list of Turing-inspired awards like the DeTuring Award proposed by famous Risk Denier chief AI Meta (formely Facebook) corporate scientist Yann Lecun (who is also a holder of a Turing award)
He was basically trying to be funny and his proposal was:
DeTuring Award to be granted to people who are consistently trying (and failing) to deter society from using computer technology by scaring everyone with imaginary risks. As the Turing Award is the Nobel Prize of computing, the DeTuring Award is the IgNobel Prize of computing
to which Connor Leahy responded: I nominate Alan Turing for the first DeTuring Award.
