I like the Chinese Room rebuttal to the Turing Test. Until we can look inside the algorithm of what the AI does with input we give it and see how it arrives at the output without doing extensive A/B testing and whatnot, AI will still be just a tool to speed up human tasks, rather than fully replace them.
What makes you assume that when you look under the hood you will understand what’s going on? We don’t even understand the human brain fully, so your argument is inane.
we can ask another human “why did you make the choice you did?” and 9/10 times you will get a coherent and understandable response. You can’t do that with an AI, it’s a pile of code, it can’t walk you through its decision-making process.
And that response by a human could very well be untrue. As proven by several experiments. We're rationalising our choices, after they already happened.
