INTRODUCTION TO THE TURING TEST • Developed by Alan Turing in 1950 • Ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour • Distinguishes between human and machines • By judging natural language conversation • Conversation is text only channel • Important concept of (AI) artificial intelligence
WHAT IS THE TURING TEST? • The Turing Test is a method for determining whether or not a computer is capable of thinking like a human. (Rouse, 2015) • The Loebner Prize is a contest designed to implement the Turing Test. Dr Loebner pledged a Grand Prize of $100, 000 and a Gold Medal for the first computer whose responses were indistinguishable from a human's. (Home Page of The Loebner Prize in Artificial Intelligence) • Each year members of the Artificial Intelligence Community have come together to decide the winner of the Loebner Prize. (CHRISTIAN, 2011) • An example of a program written in the mid-1960’s by Joseph Weizenbaum, a professor of computer science at MIT, was called ELIZA. (ELIZA: a real example of a Turing test)
ONLINE ELIZA JAVASCRIPT PROGRAM • There is a Java. Script version of this program, which is available online. (Landsteiner, 2005)
EUGENE GOOSTMAN • Eugene Goostman is a software program • It was developed in 2001, by a team of seven people • Goostman portrays a 13 year old Ukrainian boy • Goostman received the highest score • Eugene” managed to convince 33 percent of the judges that it was human • The first computer program to pass Turning test On the 7 th June 2014
INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER • First super-computer to convince us it’s human • Computer dupes 30% of human interrogators • Having a computer that can trick a human being into thinking
