Now imagine if you couldn't tell the machine from a human. Why I think that would be fascinating. More interesting than a human really, because it might have a totally new POV, or at least totally new reasons for old established POVs.

Unless machines are so much like us they are just like us. Then it would be exactly like it is now, and we'd never know, unless they told us, and even then we might not believe them.
