Variations On the Classic Turing Test

holy_calamity writes "New Scientist reports on the different flavors of Turing Test being used by AI researchers to judge the human-ness of their creations. While some strive only to meet the 'appearance Turing Test' and build or animate characters that look human, others are investigating how robots can be made to elicit the same brain activity in a person as interacting with a human would."

My solution for that is simple: Ignore them both.

Seriously, if you can't bother to type English correctly, I can't be bothered to read what you are saying. In addition, I've found that most of those posts are people asking for help, not providing information, so I really lose nothing by ignoring them.

It's no different than meatspace, really. If someone came up to me, shoved their phone in my face and said 'Fix.' I'd ignore them, too. Even my boss doesn't do that and he holds my paycheck in his hands.

I have a small amount of sympathy for people who are just learning English, but even they don't get to forget that sentences and proper nouns get capital letters. And every sentence has punctuation.
