Turing Tests

2018-01-26 20:58:20.966974+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

The Turing test isn't won by machines, it's lost by humans. Some observations on how we're being gamed by algorithms.

As this misinformation spreads, traversing the social graph from bot (adversarial agent) to human, it can become more and more resilient over time. Adversarial agents can provide support and social validation to infected humans. Infected humans can (even if flawed) apply more complex reasoning and logic to support the misinformation they now believe.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
