   If an AI has passed the Turing test, meaning people cannot tell the   
   difference between a human being and a computer by talking to it, then   
   how do you know that the AI is not conscious? Look at it the other way,   
   a human being failed the Turing test. So human beings are just a load of   
   neurons firing, it's just a trick.   
      
   "GPT-4.5 could fool people into thinking it was another human 73% of the   
   time. "..." And 4.5 was even judged to be human significantly *more*   
   often than actual humans!"   
      
   Interestingly, the use of *asterisks* has slipped into an HTML article   
   where there is no need for them.
