Artificial Intelligence Suddenly Evolves to Reach Theory of Mind

The AI revolution is upon us as super-advanced machines continue to master the subtle art of being human at a stunning (concerning?) It's old news that AI have bested humans at their own games, specifically things like Chess and Go, but there's more to our brains than checking a king. There are subtler skills like inference and intuition--squishier, almost subconscious concepts that help us understand and predict the actions of others. But with the advent of advanced AI platforms like Open AI's Generative Pre-training Transformer (GPT), even those boundaries between man and machine are beginning to fade. A new study conducted by Michal Kosinski, a computational psychologist from Stanford University, used several iterations of OpenAI's GPT neural network--from GPT-1 to the latest GPT-3.5--to
