A computer passed the Turing test.

This is pretty huge. A Computer has passed the Turing test. This test consists of convincing that the computer makes more then 30% of people it interacts with, that the computer is a human and not a computer. The computer made 33% of the people believe that it was indeed a human. This is amazing and scary at the same time. Its amazing that someone has finally be able to make technology so advanced as to convince people its one of them. This is frightening because of the same reason. If computers start being able to do that, its only a matter of time before they start doing more advanced things with it. I am both curious about it but afraid to where it can go and how it could be used. We will just have to wait and see what happens.
