    17/20. Minor quibble: the Turing Test does not test for human-like thinking (as stated in the question), but human-like behavior (as stated in the answer). I couldn't begin to design a test to measure human-like thinking. More specifically, are the computer's responses to questions indistinguishable from those of a human.

    • @keithmills778
      @keithmills778 Рік тому +4

      That’s because you’re not 150 years old. When Rutherford discovered that the atom was largely empty space (1909), different models arose to explain this phenomenon. One looked kinda like the image in Question 1. Since the neutron wasn’t discovered until 1932, early atomic models consisted of a proton core with electrons whizzing around it. Neils Bohr came up with the idea of electrons travelling in specific orbits in 1911, making his concept of the atom look like a tiny solar system.

    Addendum Q4: In the explanation, it should be specified that MRIs emit a type of *non-ionizing* radiation, from strong magnetic field and radio waves (not the same as the ionizing radiation that is found in X-ray and CT imaging). Non-ionizing radiation does not have enough energy to remove electrons from an atom. Microwaves and visible light, for instance, are types of non-ionizing radiation that is present all around us.
    This clarification does not affect the answer to the question :)

      If you SCUBA dive, then you might see your cylinder pressure as PSI - usually about 3000. OR you might see it as BAR - usually about 200.

    I found it easy. The only one I missed was because I thought water was denser than honey. Oh well. I'll take a 95.

    19/20 - didn't know what the science of "dreaming" was called
    This is junior high school stuff.
    #1. WTF kind of representation of an atom is THAT? What are the two large circles on the outside? Electrons? Then what about the electrons on the other orbitals? BAD!
    #4. It is actually Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging! It is just that the word "nuclear" scares people so they took it out.
    #6. Oneirology - Ok, I'll try to remember that one.
    #7. Actually, WITHIN a neon tube, the neon is a PLASMA and not a gas. AND at cold enough temps it can be a liquid or a solid too! Bad question!
    #10. Virus... yeah. Debatable as to whether they are actually "alive" or not.
    #15. Phagocytosis - NOT JUST the immune system! Anytime a cell "eats" another cell.
    I'll try some of your other quizzes now...

    17/20. I missed "dreams", brain weight (I though it was heavier, d'oh!), and Drake's equation. Fun test!

      Mine sometimes feels a lot heavier than any of the weights given.

    #14 Here's a thought, what if we haven't detected a transmission from a single alien civilisation, because there are loads? For example, you are standing on the centre spot of a soccer pitch just before a big game, can you hear the voice of a single fan above all the others?

      If that was the case we would be hearing a stadium of aliens but just unable to pick one out. So far Drakes equation is not looking very good.
