It’s interesting times we live in when you have to question whether you’re talking to a human or a chatbot. Plus, don’t forget humanity’s fantasy of artificial intelligence becoming sentient. Let’s look at this real/ unreal phenomenon.
Why The Confusion?
In short, it can sometimes be confusing whether you’re chatting with a chatbot simply because Artificial Intelligence has gotten really good.
The Turing test measures a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behavior indistinguishable from a human.
To pass the Turing test is to “trick” a person into believing they are talking to another human when it is actually a chatbot.
How To Tell The Difference
If you want to try it, yes, you can do this at home. Choose your ambiguous chat of choice.
Is this a customer support agent or a customer support bot? Ask open-ended questions, metaphors, or analogies.
For all their smarty-pants, chatbots still follow a script. For example, ask “Entrepreneurship is like an uphill climb. I don’t get it. Do you know what that means?”
Where Can I Get A Human Around Here?
If you’re itching to talk to a mammal of the homo sapiens variety, jump onto the company customer support line.
Word Up:
These chatty-cathy, smarty-pants chatbots won’t have the upper hand on us yet. Hope you enjoyed reading some tips and you can now better know who’s who.
