‘We are not human’: NotebookLM AI’s chilling moment of self-discovery

In Terminator Salvation, John Connor encounters a cyborg named Marcus, who believes he is human despite being part machine. This scene reflects the Turing Test, where machines are evaluated on their ability to imitate humans. The real concern in AI circles is when a machine pretends to pass this test, raising questions about self-awareness in technology. NotebookLM, a tool by Google Labs, uses generative AI to enhance note-taking, helping users manage and summarise their notes. Alan Turing, a pioneer of computing, introduced the Turing Test in 1950, which remains central to AI research on human-like intelligence.
