What gravels me about most of the proposed testing for the
I'ness of a notional AI is that all that is expected of
the candidate is appropriate responsiveness. I'd like to
think that much of the proof of my own humanity is that I
occasionally wander into the bar with my hat on rather
than passivelly waiting for a chance to prove my
intelligence by waving my empty glass at someone else
entering covered.
