Turing Test?
•
Alan Turing proposed the Turing Test as a direct replacement for the question
"Can machines think?"
•
The Turing test is widely considered the ultimate goal of Turing’s 1950 article
‘Computing Machinery and Intelligence’, which is considered as the beginning
of Artificial intelligence.
•
It determines the intelligence of a computer in which a human being should be
unable to distinguish the machine from another human being.
Flaws of the Turing test
•
Machines involved in the Turing test must attempt to be an ‘expected’ human rather than
attempting to be a ‘typical’ human. A machine could potentially fail the test just because it
is successful at responding like a ‘typical’ human. (Warwick and Shah, 2015)
•
Determining the ‘humanness’ of a response to a question is subjective and the results of
the test depend on the judge’s beliefs about how a human or machine would respond.
(Warwick and Shah, 2014)
What does a conversation with Eugene look like?
Here's the transcript of a 2012
conversation with a judge which
resulted in them picking Eugene over
the human interlocutor on the other
side of the screen:
What does a conversation with Eugene look like?
“At the time, Eugene passed 28% of such
conversations. Two years on, that extra 5%
has made all the difference.”
Alan Turing
Thank you!
