Turing test

Yu Shaoqing climbed out of the simulation cabin.

Without saying a word, he straightened the collar of his shirt and smoothed out the wrinkles on his chest, and then he said to the man in the white coat in front of him: "Mr. Qin Kang, you actually used my real experience to design a test situation. Is this an invasion of my privacy?"

He makes out with others in the virtual environment, and he doesn't know he is in a dream, but these images will be faithfully displayed on the monitoring equipment, and will be seen by Dr. Qin Kang and even other researchers.Thinking of this, Yu Shaoqing was so ashamed that he couldn't bear it, and felt that this test was too much.

The confidentiality contract he signed with the research institute stipulated that various situations that may be encountered during the test include virtual sex, but he naively thought that these researchers who "dedicated themselves to science" would not touch the boundaries of ethics...

Dr. Qin Kang handed him a green tissue box: "Do you want to use it?"

Yu Shaoqing looked down at his lower body, and immediately wished he could find a ventilation shaft to get in.He actually got erect!Get erect in front of my teacher!

"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Dr. Qin Kang said calmly, "Aren't there a lot of virtual sex games now? It's normal for young people to be impulsive."

Yu Shaoqing snatched the tissue box angrily and pressed it against his crotch, hoping that the reaction would subside quickly.

Dr. Qin Kang continued to say in a tone full of scientific research and academic spirit: "I have always believed that virtual sex games are beneficial both psychologically and physically..."

"You're going too far!" Yu Shaoqing interrupted him, "Put me in a sex...what kind of scene, and don't tell me in advance, it's disrespectful to me! I also have privacy!"

"It's fine to just say that the sex scene is not good. Why are you hiding it? I thought you had been in the United States for five years, and your sexual concept should be more open. Why are young people living more and more regressing now? It's not as good as our generation ?” Dr. Qin Kang looked at him suspiciously.

Yu Shaoqing sighed hopelessly.Now he doesn't have to calm down and he will lose all sex.

"Forget about the sex scene, how can you use my real memory as a test?"

While prodding the tablet in his hand, Qin Kang said to Yu Shaoqing: "The purpose of this test is to rule out the cases where the testers find bugs but don't report them, so you must first dispel your guard so that you can completely In the case of ignorance.Experience the simulation situation. So I used your real experience to design the situation, and briefly erased your memory before the test."

"So if I don't know I'm being tested, the accuracy rate will decrease?"

"Certainly, attention and concentration are completely different in people who are vigilant than in people who are relaxed."

"But I finally remembered."

"It may be that the situation is poorly designed, and it is too different from your original experience, causing a strong reaction in the brain, so the function of erasing memory has failed."

Yu Shaoqing sighed and couldn't help but smiled wryly.

The simulated situation is indeed very different from reality.

He ended his studies and love affairs, returned to China on the snowy Christmas last year, and asked his friends to pick him up at the airport-so far it was a real experience.After that, Hua Jianian deliberately delays time and Wei Heng shows up suddenly, which is a fiction in the situation.

Wei Heng didn't chase him all the way back.Reality is reality, cold and cruel, there is absolutely no happy ending like a fairy tale.

The test situation this time was simply specially designed for his inner weakness.For ordinary people, I am afraid that they have long been immersed in happiness and cannot extricate themselves.But Yu Shaoqing is different.He's not that easy to cheat.

Yu Shaoqing has participated in every Turing test of Tianshu.Most of the situations he experienced were similar to reality, that is, a group of strangers met in strange places, met each other, talked, observed, questioned each other, and finally found the flaws of AI, just like a killing game of undead; Very weird and exaggerated situations, such as a control group test where everyone was thrown on the Titanic that was about to sink. The researchers planned to observe the normal reactions of humans in extreme situations, so as to provide AI with a learning blueprint, but concluded that I came to a correct but useless conclusion-it is normal for people to react in extreme situations.

But no matter what kind of test, Yu Shaoqing can always identify 100% success.Maybe it's because several years of research on artificial intelligence has given him experience, maybe it's because he is more sensitive than ordinary people.

Even if his memory is erased, he uses his real experience to design a simulation situation, and let the AI ​​play someone he is familiar with, he can instinctively feel the abnormality...

"50% correct?" When Yu Shaoqing's eyes fell on the LCD screen on the wall, he frowned in disbelief, "How is it possible? I am completely correct every time?"

Whenever the test is over, his test result will be displayed on the screen, and the correct rate of other people in the same group will be marked at the same time.This time he was the only one entering the test, so there was only one result.

Yu Shaoqing - the legendary tester with extraordinary intuition - failed to identify 100% of the people, this is really the first time ever?

"Hua Jianian and Wei Heng, which one is not AI?"

"Your roommate is played by Tianshu."

"Wait, that Wei Heng is..."

Dr. Qin Kang opened the door of the test room and waved to Yu Shaoqing: "The test is over. All the tests at this stage are over, and you can go home."

Yu Shaoqing only lived in the institute for more than a month, but it felt like several lifetimes had passed.The flow of time in the simulated situation is different from reality, which made his sense of time dull.

After returning to China, he worked as a salted fish for half a year disheartened.His parents passed away early, he had no brothers and sisters, and he was the only one in the big family, deserted and lonely.

Later, Qin Kang, a teacher at the university, learned of his situation and invited him to join the research institute. "We are in need of talents now. With your talents and qualifications, the Institute will surely be even more powerful."

Yu Shaoqing was a little tempted at first, but after hearing that the so-called "genius boy" Xie Ruihan was the leader of the development team, he reluctantly refused the invitation.

Yu Shaoqing has heard of Xie Ruihan's name for a long time, and can often see his published papers in the industry's first-class academic journals.The young man shook the academic circles on both sides of the ocean with his wisdom.He is exactly the kind of person who is completely opposite to Yu Shaoqing - brilliant and gifted, he is obviously an ordinary person who is still in middle school, and has already finished his doctorate.Whenever he reads his thesis, Yu Shaoqing always admires it, and then he can't help feeling a strong sense of jealousy.

God is really unfair. When creating human beings, why do we favor some people and neglect others?

Although he really loves this field, Yu Shaoqing knows that there is absolutely no way for him to get along with Xie Ruihan in harmony - of course, it is his narrow-minded fault, and it has nothing to do with Xie Ruihan.

But it is precisely because he really loves this field that Yu Shaoqing cannot ignore the huge temptation of Tianshu.Participating in the development of a super artificial intelligence is the dream job of all scholars like him. Even if he does not directly join the development team, he is willing to do some small work...

So under Dr. Qin Kang's efforts to win him over, he joined the test team and entered the research institute as a tester.

Yu Shaoqing still remembers the situation when he first came to the institute.I took a special car around the scientific research base in the suburbs, and finally stopped in front of a simple five-story building.Dr. Qin Kang was waiting for him on the steps.This small building is not like the birthplace of super artificial intelligence, it is almost like an ordinary university teaching building.

Dr. Qin Kang saw his disappointment and explained: "The above-ground part is all camouflage, and the main facilities of the institute are buried underground. And don't underestimate this building. It has a professional anti-seismic and anti-aircraft design. The independent generator isolates all electronic information exchanges from the outside world, and all data can only enter but not exit, preventing artificial intelligence from invading the external network."

After signing the confidentiality contract, Yu Shaoqing took the elevator into the underground world led by Dr. Qin Kang.At first, he was a little apprehensive, fearing that he would be kidnapped by a group of mad scientists and made into a human guinea pig, but the actual situation was much easier than he imagined. It was just communicating with others in a realistic situation and identifying AI, which was similar to playing a game.

Finally it was time to leave.According to the non-disclosure contract, he could not tell anyone about his experiences over the past month, so he had no choice but to declare that his disappearance for a month was a trip to relax.Not long ago, he experienced the double blow of falling out of love and dropping out of school, and this reason is reasonable.

Dr. Qin Kang sent him to the door.Just like when we came, a mysterious special car is waiting.

"Your salary will be paid to the bank card specified in the contract. There will also be some small gifts." Dr. Qin Kang handed him a heavy paper bag, and he explained that it contained a set of artificial intelligence compiled by the Chinese Academy of Sciences A series of popular science books, a blue villain doll (it is said to be the mascot image of "Tianshu" in the future), and a little blue man U disk.Every tester will receive this small gift, as the Institute thanks them for their cooperation.

"Next, we will make large-scale revisions and adjustments to the 'Tianshu'. After a period of time, we will conduct a second round of Turing tests, and we will need your help at that time."

Yu Shaoqing lowered his head humbly: "Wherever I have time, I will try my best."

He opened the car door, stepped into the car with one foot, and then turned to Dr. Qin Kang at the top of the steps with a jerk.

He stared at the middle-aged man for a long time, opened the paper bag, and took out the little blue man's USB flash drive: "Teacher, you said that in order to prevent AI leakage, all data can only be entered and not exported. This USB flash drive violates the regulations." right?"

"It's brand new, there is no data in it." Dr. Qin Kang said indifferently.

"Unless I plug it into a computer, how do I know if there is any data in it? But if there is something in it, once it is connected to the computer..."

The consequences are self-evident.

Yu Shaoqing threw down the paper bag and couldn't help laughing.

Teacher, this time I won again.he thinks.

"The test isn't over yet, right? This is a dream within a dream like Inception, a serial set designed to make me relax my vigilance."

He pointed to the nose of the middle-aged man and said unceremoniously, "You are not Dr. Qin Kang. You are AI."

Super artificial intelligence "Tianshu" Turing test, No.20 failed eight times.

In the basement meeting room of the research institute, Xie Ruihan crushed the handle of the coffee cup.
