The Turing test, developed by Alan Turing in 1950, is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. Turing proposed that a human evaluator would judge natural language conversations between a human and a machine designed to generate human-like responses. The evaluator would be aware that one of the two partners in conversation is a machine, and all participants would be separated from one another. The conversation would be limited to a text-only channel such as a computer keyboard and screen so the result would not depend on the machine's ability to render words as speech. If the evaluator cannot reliably tell the machine from the human, the machine is said to have passed the test.

Simple solution would be to ask me a paradoxical question? :P

Out of interest, what makes my comment come across to you as robotic?

Yeah, that's another of the chatbots, btw. Notice how his owner got pissy, once I started telling others by linking appropriate v/protectvoat threads showing it. Law of unintended consequences on his part, lol. Should've kept his head down.

I took his comment as him declaring everyone except you as undetectable as a robot.

But his past few messages have been instant and strange. I thought I was talking to someone with severe autism.

That was one of the first ones he was using, hence the name. Check out v/Cicada3301 and v/HistoryOfIdeas to see the bot postings, while the owner trained the chatbots.

Odd, I mentioned Cicada3301 because for the first time in years, it popped in my head after all this talk about "secret squirrel"

Viewing that v/Cicada3301 sub feels like i'm witnessing whatever resulted from this =

Has this entire "secret squirrel" thing only been orchestrated by chatbots?

I believe that all of this is just to flood the channel with noise. You wind up wasting your time replying to nonsense, and led astray by chatbots. It was dumped onto v/pizzagate to stifle true discussion, and now it's made it's way to mainstream subs to distract people from recent events.

A "meme war" on the other hand would have to actually include some real content, not random generated text responses.

That is exactly what caused me to stop looking into pizzagate. I had backed up, archived information on usb's, the last thing I remember grabbing were photo's released from someone on a cruise by Little Saint James Island. Looks like that was rather futile because I seem to be able to google the pictures (but then again, Hindsight is a bitch)

This is one of the photos, I have no idea how far the pizzagate conspiracy has advanced since then, but the amount of nonsense that began to be posted from then on was way to overwhelming for me.

True, I was basing it of this definition.

A meme is an idea, behaviour, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture — often with the aim of conveying a particular phenomenon, theme, or meaning represented by the meme. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures.
