ere? A dim, honest, slow-multiplying human? Impossible to tell. The distinction between machine and man blurred a bit. Buried in the very premise of Turing’s test was an assumption about what machines could do, and how they might do it. “The idea behind digital computers may be explained by saying that t

on inside the machines. Can we? Should we? How does Dare to know face off against these impenetrable systems. It is little surprise that places like Silicon Valley often leave a visitor with the feeling of a town where work is done in rooms within rooms within rooms. To drive along the dulled, anodyne asphalt st
