Question

turing believed, was a question \too mi... to deserve discussion.\ nonetheless, the \turing test\ became a benchmark for machine intelligence. over the decades, various computer programs tried to pass it using cheap conversational tricks, with some success.
in recent years, wealthy tech firms including google, facebook and openai have developed a new class of computer programs known as \large language models,\ with conversational capabilities far beyond the rudimentary chatbots of yore. one of those models—google’s lamda—has convinced google engineer blake lemoine that it is not only intelligent but conscious and sentient.
if lemoine was taken in by lamda’s lifelike responses, it seems plausible that many other people with far less understanding of artificial intelligence, ai, could be as well—which speaks to its potential as a tool of deception and manipulation, in the wrong hands.
to many in the field, then, lamda’s

table with rows: \provides history of the turing test\, \explains how ai is trained on language\, \describes concerns about the turing test\; columns: \introduction\, \cheap tricks\, \fill in the blanks\ (approximate) with checkboxes

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each row and column:

1. "provides history of the Turing test"

• Introduction: The first part of the passage (implied by "Introduction" context) likely gives the history of the Turing test (Turing’s idea, it becoming a benchmark). So mark Introduction.
• "Cheap tricks": Talks about programs using tricks to pass the test, not history.
• "Fill in the blanks": Unrelated to history here.

2. "explains how AI is trained on language"

• "Cheap tricks": Mentions computer programs (AI) using conversational tricks, but not training. Wait, maybe "Fill in the blanks" or another? Wait, re-examine. Wait, the "large language models" part (maybe a later section) explains training? Wait, the columns are "Introduction", "Cheap tricks", "Fill in the blanks". Wait, maybe "Cheap tricks" is about programs’ methods, but "explains how AI is trained on language" – maybe "Fill in the blanks" (if that section covers training). But maybe I misread. Alternatively, maybe "Cheap tricks" is about programs’ tricks, not training. Let's re-express:

Wait, the passage’s "Cheap tricks" section (second column) says "various computer programs used to pass it using cheap conversational tricks" – not training. The "explains how AI is trained on language" would likely be in a section about large language models (maybe "Fill in the blanks" if that’s the section). But maybe the correct mapping is:

• "provides history of the Turing test" → Introduction (✔️)
• "explains how AI is trained on language" → "Fill in the blanks" (if that section covers LLM training)
• "describes concerns about the Turing test" → Maybe "Introduction" or another? Wait, the last part of the passage (before the cut) talks about deception, so "describes concerns" → maybe a later section, but the columns are three.

But to complete the table (check boxes):

• "provides history of the Turing test": Check Introduction.
• "explains how AI is trained on language": Check "Fill in the blanks" (assuming that section covers LLM training).
• "describes concerns about the Turing test": Check the section (maybe "Fill in the blanks" or another, but likely the part about deception is in a later section, so maybe "Fill in the blanks" or the third column).

But to structure the table (assuming the three rows and three columns):

Row (Contribution)	Introduction	"Cheap tricks"	"Fill in the blanks"
explains how AI is trained...	❌	❌	✔️
describes concerns...	❌	❌	✔️ (or another, but likely the concern about deception is in the third section)

(Note: The exact checkboxes depend on the full passage’s section breakdown, but this is the logical analysis.)
