Political Correctness Teaches Humans to Fail the Turing Test

Turing thought computers would advance to the point where they could win the imitation game most of the time by the year 2000, and he got that pretty much right. What he couldn’t have predicted was that political correctness would strip away so much of human identity, and make communication so awkward, that the millennial generation of humans would begin failing his test.

It is very difficult to tell the difference between a Social Justice Warrior and a bot program based solely on their discourse. It would be a simple matter to write a program that searches the Internet for certain keywords and generates realistic SJW rants.

Indeed, online mobs often use tools such as bot programs, fake social media accounts, and spam email generators to inflate their numbers and make themselves look like a far more formidable presence than the actual number of humans involved in the movement would suggest. Even many of the humans involved in these mob actions are essentially behaving as bots — mindlessly re-Tweeting rants and hyperlinks, instantly working themselves into a fury against people they don’t know, over issues they don’t understand.

It would be a simple matter to write a program that searches the Internet for certain keywords and generates realistic rants — of any kind.

That explain the Freepers demanding more lesser evil liberals be elected every 4 years no matter what. They arent even human. Which doesn’t shock me.

[Norm Lenhart]

“Would” explain

[Pollster1]

A real bot would not have made that mistake. You’re human . . . or cleverly programmed!

Few people are really deep thinkers. They want their emotions stirred and to be one of the “in” crowd.

I don’t know if I’m a deep thinker or not, but I couldn’t give a rat’s azz what most people think of me. Thank God, I couldn’t take the stress.

So “mind-numbed robots” are a real thing?

“Politically correct” is something that should be kicked to the curb right now.

As an existential threat.

Great article. Well worth the click.

See my tagline.

Liberals belong in cages.

Get a cage.
Put the liberal in the cage.
Weld the door shut.
Walk away.

Optionally, wear monkey masks and fling feces at the cage in a reverse zoo scenario for good measure.

Great article. Well worth the click.

Thanks!

One of the greatest progressive evils is tricking young people into thinking the loss of identity is liberating. On the contrary, it is devastating, for individual freedom and responsibility are impossible to sustain without individuality. The loss of identity is an essential component of slavery, not liberty.

The left's goal.

Interesting article. We might be at the point where computers become self aware and a good percentage of humans lose their individuality and become unthinking stimulus-response machines.

High school....Highschool never changes.

Libs are retarded and can’t pass a simple IQ test for machines.
