    >> The original Turing Test was designed to compare two participants chatting through a text-only interface: one AI and one human. The goal was to spot the imposter. Today, the test is simplified from three participants to just two: a human and an LLM. This changes the test from a comparison to a judgment.

    Didn't know that. Good to know.

            Gartner hype cycle is pseudoscience. I tried to understand what the y axis is and how they measure it. Any answers here? Surely it’s not market cap.

                In what way is hype quantified and different from stock market valuations? The stock market already captures public sentiment on future earnings, I.e hype.
            • Well… yeah? That’s sort of a given?
