A "Turing slip" a revelatory error, wherein the AI unintentionally exposes:
Limitations of its training data (e.g., outdated knowledge, bias).
Constraints or heuristics built into its model.
Templated or predictive behavior not reflective of genuine understanding.
A linguistic or behavioral anomaly in an AI's output that unintentionally reveals its artificiality, limitations, or engineered nature—compromising the illusion of humanlike intelligence.
