While we were looking at the nose as a prime means for truth processing, we haven't forgotten about the other senses. It's just that the nose has a lot going for it that we need to understand better.
USA Today recently published an opinion article that talked about people losing their smell from using a pharmaceutical. That the author lost smell is very much part of the opinion.
As Turing proposed an AI test, we ought to do one in regard to some real world thing (see 07/05/2009 Remarks), such as fooling someone to think they were flying by using a flight simulator.
On the other hand, if we learned how, perhaps the nose could augment visually based assessments in areas where the requirements are strong and not easily met.
