The Turing Test, can you pass

[Egbert]

I have just passed this test.

Passing this test is a remarkable achievement for me. I am now very proud of myself and rather egotistical.

I scored 63%, a comfortable pass.



Here is the test if you wish to give it a try.

I did it again and only scored 50%.

Now I'm not sure if I am a real person or a spambot. Beware.

50%. I couldn't see the right hand edge of any of the pictures. Did anyone else experience that, or is my camera out of order?

You probably should just view it through your web browser and not a camera

[ricketyclik]

Whoops, I meant eye, not camera.

I used a PC and no trouble at all.

Perhaps it different using a phone, if you were using a phone?

[ricketyclik]

Chrome, on a gargantuan PC screen.

[Sava]

I've worked tech support. I can help

Is the monitor plugged in?

[ricketyclik]

Yes, but I haven't turned it off and then on again yet.

[Sava]

Yeah, power cycling will help, try that

[ricketyclik]

No good. I've also been around the house and closed all of the open windows.

On a windows machine? Try clearing out your system32 folder. Lots of spam accumulates there
