I participated in a Turing Test many decades ago when I was getting my computer science degree. Did it help me be a better programmer? Nah. But one of my instructors was really big on us knowing IT history. It's kind of neat to see what people thought "artificial intelligence" would be like long before we had sci-fi like Hal and Data. LOL

To: Tell It Right
So far AI has turned out to be really dumb—Turing would be disappointed so little progress has been made to this point.
The irony is that to imitate humans well you need a dab of stupid in their somewhere.
