Ukraine's military intelligence says it found an Nvidia Jetson Orin computer module in Russia's new S-71 Monochrome cruise missile, indicating possible AI technology use.
The machine is definitely Turing-complete, and definitely NOT trying to pretend to be human. It’s AI claim is for a cloud-based feature I don’t use that adjusts the cycle stages over time to maximize cleanliness and minimize wear on the contents based on personal usage patterns and detected content types.
The machine does do a few neat things like check water retention of the contents before starting the load (it weighs the contents, adds a known volume of water, drains without spinning and checks the weight difference and the dirtiness of the drained water). There’s no way I want it feeding all my washing data into a massive online data lake for AI analysis though, so I keep that bit disconnected.
Ironically my washing machine has a big AI logo on the front.
Has it passed the Turing Test?
(JK. The tests are bullshit too.)
