I read about this a couple days ago. It is vastly overhyped. The computer was portraying a 13-year-old non-native-English-speaker. (Nice cover for your grammar algorithms). It was, apparently, a chatbot, and it convinced one of the three judges (cheapest way to get to 1/3).
As I understand it, Turing was expecting questions to be like "Please compose a limerick about frogs"; or maybe "What color are your eyes?", followed later by "What color were your parents' eyes?"; or "Should you double down on soft nineteen?"; or "Who is your favorite actor?" Not chit-chat, but interrogation.
Well, I for one welcome our new black lesbian android overlords.
Yes, overlords! We need at least another one before I'm going to welcome them.
The robot looks even more creepy than Monica Wehby.
I don't know.
Especially when "1/3" was one person.
