Michal Kosinski, computational psychologist at Stanford University, has been testing several iterations of the ChatGPT AI chatbot developed by Open AI on its ability to pass the famous Theory of Mind Test. In his paper posted on the arXiv preprint server, Kosinski reports that testing the latest version of ChatGPT found that it passed at the level of the average 9-year-old child.
ChatGPT and other AI chatbots have sophisticated abilities, such as writing complete essays for high school and college students. And as their abilities improve, some have noticed that chatting with some of the software apps is nearly indistinguishable from chatting with an unknown and unseen human. Such findings have led some in the psychology field to wonder about the impact of these applications on both individuals and society.
