@Gargron One of the blind spots of the Turing Test is the gullibility of the human administering the test. Or at least the experience that human has had with honest real-life interactions with humans. As our expectations of genuine human interaction continues to be shaped more and more by text and images and less and less by the nuance of voice and facial expressions the easier it is for us to grade the Turing Test on a curve. Our plummeting expectations are being met by a slight rise in computer capacity and we think that it has suddenly reached quasi-sentience.
