Pulse of Chennai anonymous opinion poll
Could you tell if you were talking to an AI instead of a person?
In plain English: Can you tell if you are talking to an AI instead of a person?
Choose between To Ai: Innum valarnum thambi and Illa illa, it feels real.
This poll explores whether you find current AI technology easy to distinguish from a real person during conversation. You can choose between believing that AI still has a long way to go before it sounds human or feeling that its responses are already incredibly realistic. Please share your perspective with us. Your response is 100% anonymous, and we never ask for your name.
