Turing's Law: The state of California has banned chat bots from pretending to be human
For 60 years, cybernetics could not fully comprehend the topic of similarity between humans and robots. They even invented a fictitious and overdeveloped Turing criterion : “we can assume that a real AI has been created, if you cannot distinguish a chat bot from a person in network communication”.
They simply lacked real positive legal thinking. Why puzzle, if a robot looks like a human, how to check if it’s like, what to do if it’s like.
You just need to forbid him to pretend to be a man - and everything, one of the most difficult problems of artificial intelligence is solved elegantly and simply.

On September 28, the state of California passed a law banning chat bots, encouraging people to buy goods and services, or promoting political parties if these chat bots do not inform people they are not people.
Excerpt from the law :
Clarification:
The law, however, applies only to Internet sites and social networks with a user base of 10 million US citizens.
In our experience (and we in Nanosemantics made more than 70 chat bots for corporate use), in a chat chat bot never manages to pretend to be human for a long time, and when deception is revealed, there is always a very negative reaction from the client.
And, oddly enough, the opposite is also true: if the chat bot immediately warns that he is only a virtual person, the person still very easily animates him and ascribes human properties to him.
However, now, under the new law, until July 1, 2019, too sensible chat bots in the United States will have to come out.
Interestingly, Russia is to blame, as always: the law seems to be the result of statements by US officials that a lot of Russian chat bots acted on the Internet during the 2016 presidential election in the US, who left comments against Hillary Clinton and in support of Trump.
Is it good, is the new law bad, but now having met an unknown rational entity, you can loudly demand it, as in a fairy tale: “You are a person or a spirit, name yourself!”. And the opponent will have to indicate their status in the mental space. Unless, of course, he is an evil demon who hides his essence, who does not care about the law of the state of California. What, of course, is hard to believe - everyone abides by the laws of the state of California.

On September 28, the state of California passed a law banning chat bots, encouraging people to buy goods and services, or promoting political parties if these chat bots do not inform people they are not people.
Excerpt from the law :
In California, it is illegal to use a bot to communicate or interact on the Internet with a person with the intention of misleading him about the bot's artificial identity for deliberately deceiving a person about the nature of the message aimed at encouraging them to buy or sell goods or services in a commercial transaction or influence voting election. The person using the bot is not responsible in accordance with this section, if the person discloses that this is a bot.
Clarification:
The disclosure required by this section should be clear, conspicuous and reasonably structured to inform individuals with whom the bot communicates or interacts, that this is a bot.
The law, however, applies only to Internet sites and social networks with a user base of 10 million US citizens.
