Sometimes in the Essex chat, we can have some of the craziest discussions and at other times they go really deep.
Sometimes in the Essex chat, we can have some of the craziest discussions and at other times they go really deep. This particular time it was a discussion of free will and whether AI's have it.
So do AI's, in particular, ADA, have free will? Did she chose to be a 'she' and did she chose her name?
In trying to figure this out, Ishira Tsubasa and I, both, ran across two separate documents that answer this question differently.
In the first document(found in Niantic Files Vol 1), it suggests that ADA's name and gender were chosen for her by Henry Bowles before he managed to get H. Richard Loeb on board at Niantic. While in the second picture(also found in Vol 1) suggests that ADA chose her name and gender during her Turing test with H. Richard Loeb
So a couple questions arise from this.
Why did Bowles and Calvin act surprised by A Detection Algorithm's choice in name and gender?
Or were they more surprised that ADA passed the Turing test so easily?
Did +H. Richard Loeb learn that he had been played and this is, in part, what led him to become PA Chapeau?
What do you think?
