Daniel Dennett on Big Data - Dictionary of Arguments
Brockman I 47 Big Data/Turing Test/Dennett: DennettVsTuring: What Turing didn’t foresee is the uncanny ability of superfast computers to sift mindlessly through Big Data, of which the Internet provides an inexhaustible supply, finding probabilistic patterns in human activity that could be used to pop “authentic”-seeming responses into the output for almost any probe a judge would think to offer. >Turing Test/Dennett. Brockman I 48 (…) probably a better tactic for the judge to adopt when confronting a candidate in the Turing Test is not to search for such items but to create them anew. AI in its current manifestations is parasitic on human intelligence. It quite indiscriminately gorges on whatever has been produced by human creators and extracts the patterns to be found there - including some of our most pernicious habits.(1) 1.
