AI passed a classic Turing test by mastering the art of human small talk

In a standard three-party Turing test, persona-prompted LLMs were often judged to be human, with GPT-4.5 selected over real people 73% of the time in 5-minute trials. The findings suggest that short human-AI interactions now hinge less on factual intelligence and more on social style, conversational flow, and humanlike persona cues.
