Blinded by AI: The Turing Test live

About this Session:

In 1950, Alan Turing came up with The Imitation Game, later renamed in his honour.The idea was simple. Imagine you have a conversation between a human A, and a computer programme B, through a text-based interface. Another human C is the judge.The judge's task is to have separate conversations with person A and programme B without seeing them, and then try to decide which one is the human and which one is the computer programme.In this live blind Turing test panel, the audience is the judge, asked to work out who of our unsighted panellists is a human, and who is reading straight from a generative AI prompt.Will you be able to work out who's shooting from the hip and whos's words were written by a chip?
