So in addition to worrying about fake AI stuff that is presented as real, we now also have real stuff presented as fake AI.

I remember someone a while back tried to pass off a script as being A.I. generated when it clearly wasn't and I thought to myself, will we need to develop a reverse Turing test? Of course some one already thought of that;

I don't think I've ever seen a "AI wrote this!" script that wasn't very clearly heavily assisted or often outright created entirely by humans.

To be fair, we've always had startups pretending they have "AI" or "machine learning" but it was just mechanical turk or someone on upwork.

[icoder]

That's true. And the term mechanical turk by itself refers to an even (much) older 'fake' AI!

Ten Finger Automation or Wizard of Oz are the terms my entrepreneur/investor group uses.

pg used "man behind the curtain" (riff on Oz) for our real estate startup :)

[hhh]

Why’s that a worry?

[icoder]

I assume you agree with the worry about the first part (fake pretending to be real). For the second part, I left out the word, and was more thinking about 'wondering', but I agree the sentence structure suggests 'worry'.

I agree it is not a worry, at least not of the same kind. I do worry a bit though about assuming something and reasoning/discussing with that premise, which is nullified if the premise was wrong.

red green refactor. If it passes the test, the test is not good enough
