No materials for the event yet, sorry!

In the last few years, we have seen the advent of practical natural language processing in the form of various generative tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and many others. In fact, these tools are so powerful at understanding our requests and generating appropriate responses that many people have begun to ascribe these chatbots sentience and claim they mark the near-future of artificial general intelligence. Well, to get the bottom of this, let’s put them to the test! Using NetsBlox, a fork of Snap! that adds various networking features such as message passing over the internet, I have created a chatroom project where users can connect and be randomly matched either with another human or an instance of ChatGPT. Users can then engage in a back-and-forth turn-based dialog and see if they can tell the difference between man and machine.
