No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

That was EXACTLY what it was designed for, the argument being that if it is indistinguishably from a human, it has human like intelligence. Human like intelligence includes consciousness, and consciousness means strong AI.
Computers are "thinking" routinely. Chess programs that have existed since the 80's are already proof of that.
The most well known philosophical challenge to the Turing test is probably the Chinese room, which is an obviously flawed thought experiment, because it introduces human intelligence to the system in an attempt to disprove that human intelligence is present.
I wrote a normal human", not people with way below average intelligence.
Notice I wrote count which means they can be presented with the correct spelling if needed.
Spelling it wrong would be a very human thing to do.
Cleaner Wrasse are conscious according to the mirror test. No one would call those fish intelligent. They are smart enough, but they are only self-conscious enough to recognize themselves in a reflection to help remove parasites.
Nothing in the Turing Test proves intelligence. Sounding human is so easy, a chat bot that pretends to be a scared little boy was the first to complete it, way back in 2014. Assuming that fooling a human is hard is even less convincing.
This is simply wrong, only Religious nutcases believe so.
And godless machine learning engineers like myself. I think you assume I think humans and only humans are intelligent. I am not convinced humans are conscious. There have been many cases where that simply isn't true or obvious.
Have a good day.
