Turing Test Homepage

What if a Robot passed the Rigorous Turing Test?

When computers first started to be created in the early 1950s, Alan Turing published a ground-breaking article that outlined a test which he claimed would prove that machines could think and were conscious. His test is as follows: a judge would sit in a room at a terminal that is connected to two other rooms. In one room, a computer would be set up in one room with a program of some linguistic capabilities. In the other room, a human would be sitting at another terminal. The judge would proceed to have a conversation with both the human and the computer. At the end, the judge would have to determine which of the two other rooms held a person, and which of the rooms held the computer. For logistical reasons, the it can be assumed that all three participants know standard English, and the judge is allowed to ask any questions he/ she wants, as long as it is natural conversation, and not tricky or nonsensical. The test can also be modified slightly, where there would be only one room, and the judge would have to determine whether or not the occupant was a human or a computer. Either way, Turing concludes that if the judge was convinced that the computer was really a human being, the computer would be, in a sense, conscious and able to think.
