and so i think the same thing is true of the turing test. the first year that the loebner prize is awarded, hugh loebner is done. he pulls the funding, walks away. but to my mind that's actually a very exciting time. where we are sort of knocked to the canvas conversationally and have this opportunity to do the really human thing which is to pick ourselves back up and figure out how to adapt and improve and get better. can and the beautiful -- and the beautiful thing about the turing test is also it hopefully means being better at life. so i sort of look forward to that. yeah. yes. >> are you looking forward to the time when you can be one of the judges? >> yeah. um, it would be mice to be one of the judges because -- nice to be one of the judges because you don't have the existential anxiety of having your humanhood in doubt. [laughter] so, yes, i mean, i think that would be a kick to come back and try to figure out what the strategy would look like from the opposite side. yeah. >> yeah. presumably, each one of these computers is submitted

so this is all part of what is called the turing test. so the computer science pioneer back in the 1950 as a computer was just in its infancy was already asking these relief philosophical questions. can machines think? are the intelligent and a human since? would it be possible some day to design a machine that actually could think? if we did, how would we know to back and so what he decides to do is just put philosophy of to the side and say, on guard to take a practical test. rearguard to hold this tustin have our answer. the way it works is that you convene a panel of scientists. they are having these five men long textual chat conversations sending messages back and forth. but they don't know is whether the messages that are coming back to them are from a human being or from a computer program claiming to be a human being. and it is there job over five minutes to figure. so his famous prediction was that by the year 2000 computers will be filling us about 30 percent of the time. as a result we would, as he puts it, be able to speak of

[laughter] this is called turing test back in 1950 just as the computer was in its infancy these are philosophical questions like can machines think? of a intelligent? would it be possible some day to design a machine that could think? and if we did how would we know? so he decides to put philosophy off to the side to say i have a practical test we will have the answer. the way it works you can the the panel of scientists that have five minutes long textual chat conversations sending messages back and forth they just don't know they are coming from a human being or a computer claiming to be a human being and it is their jobs over five minutes to figure out. sews the famous prediction by the year 2000 computers will be on 30% of the time and as a result we could speak of machines thinking without being contradicted. his prediction did not come true and even with the year 2000, the top a.i. programs were fooling the judges once per year if lucky. my eight years perk up in 2008 when the top computer program at the annual competition managed to fool 38 out of the 25 judges judges -- 12 j

has we get away from the insulating nature of the ocean that absorbs heat over a water column and ture temperature you get sitting over a continental land surface. the heatwave essentially, is doing to start earlier, if you believe these models. there is an electrical energy and probably other energy implication of all of this, in terms of cooling and power demand. there or this certainly has environmental justice implications, and finally i would say this issue brad mentioned about trying calculate the environmental water demand. that is how much of our water that's delivered is lost to eva evaporation or transportation, the residual is the run off you get in the colorado river or some other river system. that's very much under debate in the scientific community right now. its the first order of question. a few percent have a very very large impact, so this that's one of those things that there are a lot of studies going on and i think is a scientific issue, which probably will get more refined and we'll get better at that one. that's where i stop. thanks.
